Chords with lyrics

intro: C majorC  DmDm

C majorC           DmDm
For you dear, I was born
C majorC          DmDm
For you I was raised up
C majorC             DmDm
For you I've lived and for you I will die
          C majorC        DmDm
For you I am dying now
FF           G+G
You were my mad little lover
   FF                 G+G
In a world where everybody fucks everybody else over
        DmDm           G+G
You who are so far from me
DmDm           G+G
So far from me
E minorEm       FF       G+G
Way across some cold neurotic sea
C majorC        DmDm
Far from me

C majorC             DmDm
I would talk to you of all matter of things
C majorC             DmDm
With a smile you would reply
C majorC             DmDm
Then the sun would leave your pretty face
                     C majorC     DmDm
And you'd retreat from the front of your eyes
FF             G+G
I keep hearing that you're doing best
FF               G+G
I hope your heart beats happy in your infant breast
      DmDm           G+G
You are so far from me
DmDm           G+G
Far from me
C majorC           DmDm
Far from me

C majorC              DmDm
There is no knowledge but i know it
C majorC                   DmDm
There's nothing to learn from that vacant voice
C majorC          DmDm
That sails to me across the line
               C majorC      DmDm
From the ridiculous to the sublime
FF                 G+G
It's good to hear you're doing so well
      FF                 G+G
But really can't you find somebody else that you can ring and tell
       DmDm        G+G
Did you ever care for me?
       DmDm       G+G
Were you ever there for me?
  C majorC             DmDm
So far from me

C majorC         DmDm
You told me you'd stick by me
C majorC                   DmDm
Through the thick and through the thin
C majorC           DmDm
Those were your very words
           C majorC      DmDm
My fair-weather friend
FF             G+G
You were my brave-hearted lover
    FF              G+G
At the first taste of trouble went running back to mother
  DmDm      G+G
So far from me
DmDm        G+G
Far from me
E minorEm        FF         G+G
Suspended in your bleak and fishless sea
C majorC      FF
Far from me
C majorC      FF     C majorC
