Verse 1
(F sharp minor) It's (D major) (F sharp minor) (D major) either something (F sharp minor) in their eyes
or something in (D major) the drink
But whatever (B minor) it is,
they both stop (G major) and think
There's no go (D major) ing back
or noth (B minor) ing above
It's (G major) lust and loneliness but (A major) never love (F sharp major)
She (G major) takes a breath as (D major)
he (F sharp minor) takes (A major) his keys
First (F sharpdim) name terms is (C major) the ex (G major) tent of it
There's (B minor) (E minor) no get (G major) ting out
as they're (D major) going in (A major)
But (G major) by tomorrow they both (A major) will begin
To (D major) re (B minor) gret every day
On a ball they (D major) have struck
A (G major) small price to pay
In casual (A major) luck (F sharp major)
(B flatdim) Some (B minor) lose nothing
Some lose their life
(D major) Whatever we (G major) have
Is (B minor) all we have (D major) (F sharp minor) got (D major) (B minor) (G major)
He takes (D major) her hand (F sharp minor) and leads (B minor) to the room
In (G major) half light and silence
while they're close to (D major) remove
There's (G major) (D major) doubt in her mind
but hope (B minor) in her heart
That this (G major) last one of many
made (A major) me the (F sharp minor) star
So they (G major) wriggle and writhe
on power (F sharp minor) 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
(B minor) this scene (G major) (D major)
ba -da -da -ba (F sharpdim) -da -ba -da ba -da (G major) -da
-da (F sharp minor) (E minor) (D major) (E minor)
(B minor) (F sharp minor)
Ooooooo (B minor) -oo (G major) -oo
-oo (A minor) -oo -o -oo
(E minor) Tomorrow as (F sharp minor) always, (F sharp major) (B minor) always comes (F sharp minor)
(D major) As (G major) she slips away, he's still dum (D major) b
He (G major) (D major) felt (F sharp minor) the urge
just as (B minor) she felt (F sharp minor) the need
(D major) Now the (G major) need to get out,
still car (A major) rying a seed
Struggles (D major) (B minor) down the lane, on to her shoe
On (D major) (G major) to her paid money,
then out (A major) of view (E minor)
(B minor) Into the gutter, down to a drain
Join (D major) ing (G major) a river,
(B minor) there to (A major) re (B minor) main
There's (F sharp minor) (B minor) no going back,
and there's nothing (D major) about
It's (G major) lost all loneliness
that (F sharp minor) drives us along (E minor) (B minor) (A major)
(D major) (A major) (F sharp minor) (F sharp major) (B minor)
(G major)
It's lost (G minor) and lonely in us,
but (A minor) it's (D major) seldom love. (F sharp minor) (D major) you
