-INTRO-
             B RIFF 1        G RIFF 1
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    D RIFF 1
And I can fuck up anything, anything

         B RIFF 1            G RIFF 1
It was a wonderful life when we were together
    D RIFF 1                         A5~
And now I've fucked up every God damn thing


-VERSE-
        B RIFF 1  G RIFF 1
Amelie lied to me
                          D RIFF 1
This was supposed to be easy
            B RIFF 1           G RIFF 1                      D RIFF 1
I found the one damn person to help me fall asleep in the night
              B RIFF 1  G RIFF 1
Sleeping gets tiring
                         D RIFF 1
And dark reminds me of dying
       B RIFF 1            G RIFF 1
And as long as this feeble heart is still beating
         D RIFF 2
You will find me rushing through all the rooms
                       A5 RIFF
Switching on all the lights


-PRE CHORUS-
    F# RIFF                 B RIFF 2
The problem with falling in love in late night bars
                G RIFF 2
Is that there's always more nights, there's always more bars
    F# RIFF                   B RIFF 2
The problem with showing your lover your scars
        G RIFF 3              A RIFF
Is that everybody's lover is covered in scars


-CHORUS-
           Bm              G
So give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    D
And I can fuck up anything, anything
         Bm                  G
It was a wonderful life when we were together
    D
And now I've fucked up every


-VERSE-
           B RIFF 1  G RIFF 1
Things got fractious
             D RIFF 1
And I felt faithless
        B RIFF 1               G RIFF 1                     D RIFF 1
At that moment just before the dawn when everything falls apart
                    B RIFF 1  G RIFF 1
But, baby, I didn't mean it
                     D RIFF 1
For things to get desparate
  B RIFF 1            G RIFF 1
I let down my guard, let slip the rudder
          D RIFF 1
Now we're drifting in the curent away from one another


-CHORUS-
        Bm              G
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    D
And I can fuck up anything, anything
         Bm                  G
It was a wonderful life when we were together
    D
And now I've fucked up everything

        Bm              G
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    D
And I can fuck up anything, anything
         Bm                  G
It was a wonderful life when we were together
    D                                       A
And now I've fucked up every little God damn thing
                     G
Every little God damn thing
                     A
Every little God damn thing
                     G      Bm~
Every little God damn thing

-BRIDGE-
                                  D
And I've been skirting round the rim
                    G
Of doing something brave
             F#m                 Bm
Of not just standing but jumping in
                        D
Of making circles into squares
                   G
Of laying down the bare facts
        F#m                Bm
Like a burden I can't bear

                           D
And I can almost find the words

But I can see the way
    G                     F#m
You fold your hands speak my name like
   B_    C#_       D_    E_
A curse upon your pretty lips
    B_        C#_     D_         E_.    D* RIFF
The pressured white behind your finger tips

Bm* RIFF
D/A* RIFF
Gm* RIFF
D* RIFF

-OUTRO-
             Bm* RIFF              D/A* RIFF
And when you see me for all that I am
                Gm* RIFF                           D* RIFF
I couldn't make mistakes that make a difference anymore
               Bm* RIFF                  D/A* RIFF
I throw myself down on my knees in your hands
               Gm                               D*
Beg you for forgiveness for my fuck-ups and my faults
              Bm*                                D/A*
Maybe you'd relent, release some hope for our forever
                      Gm*                                    D*     Bm*
Lift up your precious hands and then bring yours and mine together
        D/A*            Gm*                   D*  Bm*
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
             D/A*            Gm*~  Gm*~    Gm*~
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
