[Verse]
 A                   E  
Babe, it feels like it’s all happened
 A                  E  
Twenty-three years of the same
 A               E  
And I’m sorry ’bout this morning
 A             E   
For the damage I will pay

[Verse]
 A               E   
All the mirrors face the walls and
A                E   
I wake just to long for bed
 A                  E     
Love what’s got you so down low?
     A                E   
The saddest tongue is in your head

[Interlude]

[Verse]
A               E
I forget the thrill of lies
      A               E        
The truth escaping through the eyes, now
A              E   
You use voices on the phone
      A                  E    
That once were spent on me

[Verse]
      A                  E   
The world has changed beyond our doorstep
   A              E     
Peopl? talk and dress so strange
A                E  
I don’t know a neighbour’s nam?
     A               E 
And all of life is rearranged

[Verse]
 A                  E  
Nice to know that you’re still caring
 A               E 
Well enough to raise your voice
     A                E   
But if we must bring up the past then
  A                    E  
Please don’t speak to me of choice

[Interlude]

[Outro]
   A                 E
Across the way moved in a pair
       A              E          
With passion in its prime
 A                  E   
Maybe they look through to us
      A                  E 
And hope that’s them in time
