Intro 1
(A minor) (B minor) (D major) (A minor)
Verse 1
That frightening little sound (C major)
It's (A minor) just the world awake
It's (B minor) just a way (E minor) of (D major) saying
we're (A minor) in business
It's just a lightning strike,
It's just a family row
It's (B minor) just (D major) the give and take of (A minor) forgiveness
(B minor) (A minor) (D major) (A minor)
(B minor) (G major) (A minor) (C major) (A minor) (F sharp minor)
Chance (D major) being a fine thing (B minor)
brought (Esus4) us togeth (D major) er
(B minor) (F sharp minor) But we're (D major) not magnets
(B minor) well (Esus4) not forever (D major) (A minor)
It's just the way I am,
It's just the way we are
It's (B minor) just a (D major) nervous flicker (A minor) ing of
old flames (C major) (E minor) (C major) (G major) (A minor) (C major) (A minor)
Now everybody wears the look
Of the child (Dsus4) who wished (A minor)
to marry you (G major) (F sharpdim)
Who, knocking (A minor) proudly on your door,
Was greeted by your pretty wife (G major) (F sharpdim)
If (A minor) this is life make no mistake
It keeps (D major) the (A minor) weary world (G major) awake (F sharpdim)
(A minor) (B minor) (G major) (A minor)
(B minor) (G major) (A minor)
Chance (A major) (D major) being a fine thing (B minor) (D major) brought
(Esus4) us together (B minor) (F sharp minor)
But (D major) we're not magnets well
(Esus4) not forever (D major) (A minor)
It's just the way I am,
It's just the way we are
It's (B minor) (D major) just a nervous (G major)
(D major) flickering of old (A minor) flames
So don't you (C major) cry they're, (A minor)
They're only words
They're (B minor) (D major) only the saddest thing you've
ever (A minor) heard (E minor) (C major) (E minor) (C major) (G major) (A minor)
Now everybody wears the look
Of the child who wished to
marry (G major) you (F sharpdim)
Who, knocking (A minor) proudly on your door,
Was greeted by your pretty wife (G major) (F sharpdim)
If this is (A minor) life (E minor) (A minor) (G major) (F sharpdim) (A minor) (G major) (F sharpdim)
(A minor) (E minor) (A minor) (G major) (F sharpdim) (A minor) make (E minor) no mistake (A minor)
It keeps the weary world awake (G major) (F sharpdim)
