[Verse 1]
Em A7
Your old lover's lying in the gutter
Em A7
He used to be such an all night strutter
C#m A
"Oh, my heart," I heard him mutter
C#m G#m
"Oh, my dear, it seems to flutter"
G#m F#
Aa-aa-aa-aa-aah!
F# C#m A C#m A
Aa-aa-aa-aa-aah!
[Verse 2]
Em A7
It's so hard to say "No"
Em A7
When the deck is stacked to only go slow
C#m A
It's easy sweet to live it up
C#m G#m
An easy street when you've had enough
G#m F#
Aa-aa-aa-aa-aah!
F# E Esus
Aa-aa-aa-aa-aah!
[Interlude]
A B
Darkened night, splashing light
E C#m
Soft and white and so polite
A B
Let him in, beneath the rim
E C#m
Beneath the skin, your next of kin
A B
Cleansing fire, funeral pyre
E C#m
Broken wire grown inside her
A B
Secret hush, swollen rush
E C#m A C#m A
It's soft and plush. It's so plush

You know it's so passé
Em A7
to sleep without you every day
C#m A
So easy to do your stuff
C#m G#m
So easy to live it up
G#m F#
Aa-aa-aa-aa-aah!
F# C#m A C#m A
Aa-aa-aa-aa. Aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa
