C              F
 I said "??I don't believe in marriage

It's a Patriarchal scam"

So we went through the rain to the place where we found our hearts
     Em            F
They were buried under shit and old debris
   C
And I swear that I had something
   D
And I know you felt it too
     F                C
But that commute at Quintinshill defeated me
