[G#m] [A] [C#m] [Badd2]
[Eadd4] [Esus4] [Eadd4] [Esus4]
VERSE:
[G#m] we [A]sleep together[C#m] while [Badd2]all around us
[E] peo-[F#m]ple kill each other [E]where they [A6]lie
[G#m] they [A]lie together[C#m] till they [Badd2]find someone better
[E] try and [F#m]negotiate that [E]slow de-[A6]mise
VERSE:
[G#m] but I [A]just can't credit[C#m] that type [Badd2]of effort for a
[E] piece [F#m]of nothing on the [E]edge of a [A6]knife
[G#m] sli-[A]ces you so thin[C#m] you dry [Badd2]like sheets in the wind
[E] hold a [F#m]candle behind through [E]you see the [A6]light

C#m Badd2 E `
I want the song I can sing for-ever I don't

[G#m] [A] [C#m] [Badd2]
[Eadd4] [Esus4] [Eadd4] [Esus4]
VERSE:
[G#m] the [A]afternoon can[C#m] bring with it [Badd2]shallow moods but
[E] I'd jump [F#m]a harbour wall to [E]clear your [A6]mind
[G#m] I [A]quarter the years[C#m] you drop [Badd2]the sails till we're clear
[E] I'll look [F#m]for reefs you map the [E]stars in the [A6]night
VERSE:
[G#m] and his-[A]tory tells us[C#m] of worlds [Badd2]we'll know nothing of
[E] then retro-[F#m]spect becomes a [E]shackle [A6]tight on
[G#m] the [A]ankles of us[C#m] so in [Badd2]the future we trust
[E] we cross [F#m]our fingers like some [E]kids telling [A6]lies

I wan-na know that I know what I'm talking about
[F#m] until [C#m]I do well all the [F#m]walls seem [C#m]white
C#m Badd2 E `
