Intro:
A minorAm DmDm FF FF
Verse 1:
A minorAm DmDm
Baby can't you cry?
FF G+G
Or is she ain't letting you?
A minorAm DmDm
That eyelash in your eye
FF G+G
Ain't what's upsetting you
FF G+G
Though she's dead and out of sight
FF G+G
She still throws your shoes across your room at night
A minorAm C/GC/G G+G
And she still says you're cheap and in your sleep
F/AF/A
Sets your sheets alight
D MajorD
So baby don't you cry
FF
She ain't worth it and besides
C majorC G/BG/B
You're too old for lullabies
Verse 2:
A minorAm DmDm
So baby don't you sink
FF G+G
Back down that corridor
A minorAm DmDm
Take a breath and think
FF G+G
What you've been running for
FF G+G
'Cos she can't help you now
FF G+G
All she can do is sulk around your house
A minorAm C/GC/G G+G
And show up in your eyes when you're surprised
FF
That you're happy now
D MajorD
So be glad and proud
FF C majorC G/BG/B
'Cos baby you're allowed
Middle 8
G/BG/B FF G/BG/B C majorC
And her shadow disappears when you shine a light down the years
G/BG/B FF G+G
And torch that hallway of souvenirs
Verse 3:
A minorAm DmDm
So lately you and I
FF G+G
have spoken of marrying
A minorAm DmDm
And so it's time to say goodbye
FF G+G
To that bag of broken things you're carrying
FF G+G
'Cos this time you can't hide
FF G+G
All you can do is trust her loving side
A minorAm C/GC/G G+G
And walk on down the aisle with a smile
FF
And her voice inside
D MajorD
So still and quiet
FF F/CF/C C majorC
Saying baby you survived
