B5                     A5     B5
When we walked the streets together
B5                                   A5     B5
All the faces seemed to smile back,
B5                                           E5
And now the pavements have nothing to offer
D5         E5                                B5     A5     B5
And all the faces seem to need a slap

               B5              A5   B5
There?s an unfamiliar grip
B5                             A5    B5
on an unfamiliar handkerchief
B5
Attending to the tears on cheeks
E5                 D5     E5
I wouldn?t notice
E5                                       B5         A5   B5
With you no matter how vicious the grief
B5                 E5                D5       E5
Her expression was damp and crooked
E5                                    B5      D5    C#5   G5
Grabs onto my throat and won?t let go

A5        F#5    B5   D5  C#5  G5
Won?t let go
A5        F#5    B5   D5  C#5  G5
Won?t let go
A5        F#5    B5   D5  C#5  G5
Won?t let go

B5         D5      C#5   G5
Save me from
A5        F#5
The secateurs
B5      D5    C#5   G5
I?ll pretend
A5        F#5
I didn?t hear
B5             D5
Can?t you see
C#5                G5         A5        F#5
I?m the ghost in the wrong coat
B5      D5    C#5   G5    A5    F#5   B5
Biting butter and crumbs

             B5                 A5   B5
There?s a handsome maverick
B5                                    A5     B5
You don?t talk about to keep me calm
B5                         E5              D5   E5
And I can't help it if I create a version
E5                            B5      A5     B5
That pulls you back onto his arm

B5           D5     G5    F#5
Please don?t tell me
B5           D5     G5    F#5     B5    D5   G5   F#5
You don?t have to darling, I can sense
B5   D5   G5   F#5       E5       D5
That he painted you a gushing sunset
C#5               A5                   B5       D5   G5   F#5
And slayed angry panthers in your defence.
 B5     D5      G5     F#5         E5       D5
And he stands separate and ever deadly
C#5                               B5      D5    C#5   G5
Clings onto my throat and won?t let go

A5        F#5    B5   D5  C#5  G5
Won?t let go
A5        F#5    B5   D5  C#5  G5
Won?t let go
A5        F#5    B5   D5  C#5  G5
Won?t let go

B5
Save me from
B5
The secateurs
B5
I?ll pretend
B5
I didn?t hear
B5
Can?t you see
B5
I?m a ghost in the wrong coat
B5                       A5   B5
Biting butter and crumbs

Solo: B5  E5  G5  A5  F#5

Save me from

I?ll pretend

I didn?t hear

Can?t you see
C#5                G5         A5        F#5
I?m the ghost in the wrong coat
B5     D5    C#5   G5    A5    F#5   B5
Biting butter and crumbs
