It's just F and G though the entire song.
F G F G
I have lost you to sleep again.
F G F G
sleeping as we do on opposite sides of a venn diagram
F G F G
I read the time in shadows on the wall
F G F G
the shards of light through the slats on your window
F G
ah ha ha ha
F G
ah ha ha ha
I ease myself from under your languid arm,
fumble on my boots and hear you breathe through your alarm
I disarm it for you,
you rarely heed it anyway
I wouldn't want it to intrude upon your dream,
school bell ring messing up the play
ah ha ha ha!
A note, penned clumsily in this century's type-
ruined hand saying gone down the shops for a walk
I'll bring back some sandwiches and then I kiss your face,
the black and the blue tie it into my laces,
I don't want the wander blocking up the view
ah ha ha ha!
I stumble out into the afternoon.
still salty from drink and the late night pool
I'll be gone an hour at most,
you will be more diagonal
I've a head on me in the post, I know,
a castle swallowed in the swell.
ah ha ha ha! ...
