D           G                        D
   I sup -     pose love lives in a     dustbin
       G                  D
Be -     hind the garden     wall
                    G
You have to grovel     on the ground
                     D
and be pretty dis -     gusting
    G
to     find it at all

     D                     G
And     I suppose that it     grows on you
D                         G
   Standing there with no     clothes on
     D
and     I suppose
                 G                           D
because there's     beautiful girls in this     town
                          G
I'll stay here till I've     chosen one.


D                           G
   I suppose life's like a     hunt, really
     D
the     hounds have fun
           G
until the     fox gets bagged
     D                        G
And     not one girl in this     town
                   D
will ever fall in     love with me:
G
     They'll get dragged.

     D
Her     heart
G                          D
   speaks to me; says the      room the room the room
      G
Be -     neath her dress, and


D                     G
   I suppose that it     beats for me
        D                          G
Like a     hammering moon pulling     tides through her chest


       D                          G
Sup -     pose she says that she     owes me
D                         G
   all that she owns and     all that she is
    D                       G
It     seems to me I sup -     pose that
     D
her     heart's not enough
         G
and her     love is a swizz

D            G                        D
   So sup -     pose love lives in a     mansion
         G                         D
how the    hell do I get over the     wall

           G                                  D
And if my     rope's not stretched the right     tension
         D                              D
I won't     cross this grand canyon at     all

                      G
And I suppose that it    grows like a tumor
D
   spreads like a rumor
          G                                 D
like the     grass grows and inch in every     day

                         G
And I suppose that be -     fore I even know it
     D
the     tide will start flowing
         G                              B5
and the     drum beneath my jacket will     say


D5                                 B5
    You know you need her every -     day
D                                 B5
   You know you need her every -     day
D5                                 B5
   You know you need her every -      day
D                                 B5
   You know you need her every -     day
D5                                 B5
   You know you need her every -      day
D                                 B5      D - B5 - D //
   You know you need her every -     day
