Capo 8
Intro: G D C (2x)
G D C
Well we'll kiss for that's how it begins
G D C
We'll embrace just to warm our skins
Em D C G C G
I'll think of her and you'll think of him
G D C
And we'll talk to keep the silence from our ears
G D C
And we'll laugh because we're so close to tears
Em D C G C G
We're just lonely, you know, that's why we're here
Em C G
Cos you don't taste like you should
Em C D
And you don't fit in my arms like she would
Em C D
Lying in the dark, it's understood
Em C D
We are both lost
G C G
And we won't be found
G D C
We will wake up with each other in our pores
G D C
You cover over white bits like I've not seen them before
Em D C
We'll say goodbye and then we'll say no more
Em C G
Cause hearts won't buy love and nor will they sell
Em C D
And there is no love in this hotel
Em C D
Though we're walking home we know too well
Em C D
We are both lost
Em C D
We are both lost
Am
And we won't be found
Am
She was my compass
He was your map
D
We've come too far to be turning back
G D C
And we'll sit on our single beds
G D C
Nothing on our hearts and tears on our threads
Em D C
For we know the last unicorn is dead
