Verse 1
(One, two, three)
(A minor) Why are you hanging on (D minor)
So tight (F major)
To the rope that I'm hanging from (G major)
Off this island? (A minor)
This was an escape plan
(D minor) (this was an escape plan)
Carefully timed (F major) it so that we'd go
(G major) And dive into the waves below
Pre-chorus 1
(A minor) Who tends the orchards? (C major)
Who fixes up the gables? (F major)
Emotional torture (E major)
From the head of your high table (A minor)
Who fetches the water (C major)
From the rocky mountain (F major) spring?
And walk back down again (E major)
To feel your words and their sharp (F major) sting?

Chorus 1
And I'm getting fucking tired
(A minor) The capillaries in (C major) my eyes are bursting
(F major) If our love died (G major) would that be the worst thing? (A minor)
For somebody I (C major) thought was my saviour
You (F major) sure make me do a (G major) whole lot of labour (A minor)
The callous skin on (C major) my hands is cracking
(F major) If our love ends (G major) would that be a bad thing? (A minor)
And the silence (C major) haunts our bed chamber
(F major) You make me do (G major) too much labour
Interlude 1
(A minor) (D minor)
(F major) (G major) (You make me do too much labour)
Verse 2
(A minor) Apologies from my tongue (D minor)
And never yours (F major)
Busy lapping from flowing (G major) cup
And stabbing with your fork (A minor)
I know you're a smart man
(D minor) (I know you're a smart man)
And weaponize (F major) the false incompetence (G major)
Pre-chorus 2
It's dominance under a guise
(A minor) If we had a daughter (C major)
I'd watch and could not save (F major) her
Emotional torture (E major)
From the head of your high table (A minor)
She'd do what you taught her (C major)
She'd meet the same cruel (F major) fate
So now I've gotta run (E major)
So I can undo this mistake (F major)
Chorus 2
At least I've gotta try
(A minor) The capillaries in (C major) my eyes are bursting
(F major) If our love died (G major) would that be the worst thing? (A minor)
For somebody I (C major) thought was my saviour
You (F major) sure make me do a (G major) whole lot of labour (A minor)
The callous skin on (C major) my hands is cracking
(F major) If our love ends (G major) would that be a bad thing? (A minor)
And the silence (C major) haunts our bed chamber
(F major) You make me do (G major) too much labour
Bridge 1
(A minor) All day, every day
Therapist, mother, maid
Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant
(A minor) Just an appendage, live to attend him
So that he never lifts a finger
(A minor) Twenty-four seven baby (C major) machine
So (F major) he can live out his (G major) picket fence dreams
(A minor) It's not an act of love (C major) if you make her
(F major) You make me do (G major) too much labour
Bridge 2
(A minor) All day, every day
(C major) Therapist, mother, maid
(F major) Nymph then a virgin, (G major) nurse then a servant
(A minor) Just an appendage, (C major) live to attend him
(F major) So that he never (G major) lifts a finger
(A minor) Twenty-four seven baby (C major) machine
So (F major) he can live out his (G major) picket fence dreams
(A minor) It's not an act of love (C major) if you make her
(F major) You make me do (G major) too much labour
Chorus 3
(A minor) The capillaries in (C major) my eyes are bursting
(F major) If our love died (G major) would that be the worst thing? (A minor)
For somebody I (C major) thought was my saviour
You (F major) sure make me do a (G major) whole lot of labour (A minor)
The callous skin on (C major) my hands is cracking
(F major) If our love ends (G major) would that be a bad thing? (A minor)
And the silence (C major) haunts our bed chamber
(F major) You make me do (G major) too much labour
