Loveless chords by Steve Harley

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: EADGBE

Intro:
A augmentedA

Verse 1:
   A augmentedA
In a daggers-drawn debate
                  E MajorE
You get caught in the crossfire of words
     A augmentedA
Aimed at getting you to sing for your life
            E MajorE
Though you know it's absurd

Verse 2:
      F# minorF#m
And you're limited to one glass of wine
             C# minorC#m
When your heart's set on thirds
      F# minorF#m
And you're led to the river of sighs
         C# minorC#m
To get fed to the birds

Chorus:
        BB
While children stare
BB
'Cause you're loveless
    A augmentedA
And the world don't care

Verse 3:
  A augmentedA
Any time is the right time to go
            E MajorE
If you've finished your act
       A augmentedA
And when the camera pans the man
             E MajorE
With the gun in a suicide pact

Verse 4:
          F# minorF#m
Though you've been learning to survive
                 C# minorC#m
With your dignity and memories intact
      F# minorF#m
'Cause it's easier to die in your sleep
            C# minorC#m
When the city's been sacked

Chorus:
      BB
You're over there
BB
And you're loveless
    A augmentedA
And the world don't care

Verse 5:
      A augmentedA
When you're naked in the sun
                     E MajorE
And your neighbours start to gossip and sneer
     A augmentedA
And your sponsors want more
                    E MajorE
Forgetting any more could end your career

Verse 6:
     F# minorF#m
Then some nurse who's been cursed
                  C# minorC#m
With a grin that can stab like a spear
     F# minorF#m
Tells you nothing's gonna save you from your past
           C# minorC#m
You're expected to cheer

Chorus:
   BB
For a dare
BB
But you're loveless
    A augmentedA
And the world don't care

Solo:
A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
F# minorF#m C# minorC#m F# minorF#m C# minorC#m
BB A augmentedA

Verse 7:
    A augmentedA
So you find you're a voice
             E MajorE
In the ranks of a funeral choir
     A augmentedA
And your parasite friends
                 E MajorE
From the past make a dash for the wire

Verse 8:
     F# minorF#m
And your debt's long enough
                 C# minorC#m
To be wrapped 'round an Anglican spire
      F# minorF#m
Mean you're so full of hope for the future
         C# minorC#m
Your libido's on fire

Chorus:
     BB
It isn't fair
BB
When you're loveless
    A augmentedA
