D 
I agreed to host the show 
                              A 
That was how this whole thing started 
      (still A....) 
How was I supposed to know 
                          D 
I would end up so broken hearted 
           G 
We had one night 
A                      Bm 
That's all it meant to you 
E                     A 
Now I'm alone and I'm wishing I could stop 
              G  Gm 
Thinking of you 


          Bm E G F# 
I am in love 
                Bm E G F# 
But it's only a fantasy 
              Bm E G F# 
I'm in search of 
                        G         Gm 
That hairy creature who cared for me 
          D 
Under the pines 

D 
Tried so hard to play it cool 
                   A 
Didn't want to overdo it 

Wasn't I a lovesick fool 
                         D 
Sending you a big bag of suet 
          G 
And a red rose? 
A                        Bm 
I thought at least you'd call 
E                    A 
Was I so wrong for expecting something more 
                G       Gm 
Than nothing at all? 

          Bm E G F# 
I am in love 
                Bm E G F# 
But it's only a fantasy 
              Bm E G F# 
I'm in search of 
                        G         Gm 
That hairy creature who cared for me 
          D 
Under the pines 

G                   D  
Close my eyes and I see you there 
Em                  Bm 
Musky smell of your matted hair 
G              D 
Our minds were one 
   F#sus4 (244422) F# 
But only for a moment 


D 
We're shooting "Atlantis" now 
                            A 
I'm staring at the big blue ocean 

I wish you could be here somehow 
                        D 
I wish I really had no emotion 
            G 
I'd be like you 
A                  Bm 
Just living day to day 
E                          A 
Crushing the heads and the hearts of smaller things 
          G      Gm 
And going away 


          Bm E G F# 
I am in love 
                Bm E G F# 
But it's only a fantasy 
              Bm E G F# 
I'm in search of 
                        G         Gm 
That hairy creature who cared for me 
          D 
Under the pines
