Verse 1
(D major) It's either,
(F sharp minor) Something in their eyes
or something (D major) in the drink
But (B minor) whatever it is they both
(G major) stop and think
There's (D major) no going back
and noth (B minor) ing above
It's (G major) lust or loneliness, (A major) but never (F sharp major) love.
(G major) She takes a breath as (A major) he takes his keys
(F sharpdim) First name term (A minor) s
is the ex (G major) tent of (B minor) it
there's (E minor) no getting (G major) out as (D major) they're going (A major) in
But (G major) by tomorrow they both (A major) will begin
Verse 2
To re (B minor) gret and renege on a
(D major) bond they have struck
A (G major) small price to pay and (A major) casual (F sharp major) luck
(B minor) Some lose nothing, some lose a (D major) lot
But whatever we (G major) have (B minor) is all we
(D major) have (F sharp minor) got.
(D major) (B minor) (G major)

Verse 3
(D major) He takes her hand (F sharp minor) and leads (B minor) to the room
In (G major) half light and silence for
their clothes to remove
(D major) There's doubt in her mind
but (B minor) hope in her heart
That this (G major) last one of many (A major) may be the start.
Verse 4
So they (G major) wriggle and
writhe for an (F sharp minor) hour or two
But (F sharpdim) time has no place
when two (G major) are consumed.
(F sharp minor) They (E minor) moan and they gasp
but they don't (D major) really speak
As (G major) no conversation could fit this (B minor) scene.
Verse 5
(G major) An (D major) (F sharpdim) (A minor) (G major) (F sharp minor) (E minor) d (D major)

(D major) As she (G major) slips away, he still dum (D major) b (G major)
(D major) He felt (F sharp minor) the urge just as she felt the need
(D major) Now the (G major) need to get out,
still car (A major) rying his seed,
(B minor) Which trickles down her leg
and onto her shoe
(G major) Onto the pavement and
then out (A major) of view (E minor)
(B minor) Into the gutter and down into a drain
(D major) Joining (G major) a river and (B minor) there
(A major) to re (B minor) main
Verse 6
There's (B minor) no going back
and there's (D major) nothing above
It's (G major) lust and loneliness that (F sharp minor) drives us along (E minor)
(B minor)
