1st traste
[Verse 1]
C Fmaj7 Am G
I'm not a godly man, but every time we fucked

I'd shout out “Oh God, enough”
Am G
To send up my own little prayer

I'm not a lucky man, but darling you had me fooled
C Fmaj7
You carved out a better man
Am G
One that loved you through and through

I used to spend whole evenings watching the movements of your mouth
C Fmaj7 Am G
I'd take you all in, and thank God that I did, 'cause it's all that I'm left with now
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Em
Trapped inside for another night
Am Dm
These junkie fingers scroll me back to
Em
another life
[Chorus]

My eyes burn holes through pictures of you and I
Fmaj7
Cariad, I miss you all the time
Am Em F G
Accepting it's over, I let the air run out

All of these pictures of you and I

Plastered on the hallways of my mind
Am Am Em F G
But now that it's over, I let the air run out
C Fmaj7 Am G

I'm just a crooked man, I found God in sin
C Fmaj7 Am G
I'd dig up the past again, just to watch you dancing within

Outrageously dreaming of us reconvening and you leading me back to bed

These junkie fingers scroll me back to
Em
another life
[Chorus]

But now that it's over, I let the air run out
[Outro]
C
Oh, but I still wake up with things to tell you
Fmaj7 Am
And I dream of you no matter who I'm sleeping next to
Em
Good God I resent you for leaving
Fmaj7
But I can't pretend I don't need you
C
Cariad, indulge in this sin
Fmaj7
I need your delicate fingers tracing my
Am
outline again
Em Fmaj7
Just once again
C Fmaj7
I'm not a godly man
Am G
But every time we fucked
