I made this version listening to the song and found it pretty accurate. All chords are bar chords (barré chords) Note that the D chord is played this way: e|--x-- B|--x-- G|--7-- D|--7-- A|--5-- E|--x-- Intro: D Verse 1: D
She stares into the mirror C G D Youth fading with the sun D The hollows in her face C G D Like wishing wells D Scarlet as a papercut C G D And jewelled as the Orion D C G D She'd never worn that jewellery as a girl Chorus 1: F G D She says 'the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Dm Is love' F G D She says 'the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Is love' Interlude: D C G D Verse 2: D He stares into the river C G D Heart falling to the drift D An argument of cars C G D Moving full steam behind D Blood-shot as a baby C G D And sulking like a valley D C G D Fishing in reflections, killing time Chorus 2: F G D He says 'the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Dm Is love' F G D He says 'the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Dm Is love' Bridge: Am It's the bath that's getting cold while you're frozen to your bed C G The milk that's going rancid on the table Am The panic in the evening, the photos in the dustbin, C G the pointless items we forgot to label Am It's the perfume on her wrist, that stinks of easy birthdays C G The spare keys like asbestos on the side Am It's the cross around his neck, for luck and not for honour C E Like diamond over knuckle on a newly married bride Chorus 3: F G D She says 'the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Dm Is love' F G D He says 'the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Dm Is love' F G D I know the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D Is love F G D I know the only thing I've ever found Dm F That's greater than it always sounds G D
