Intro: Bm Bsus2 Bm Bsus2

           Bm                        G                        D     
And this necklace of question marks beautifully framing your face,
        Bm                       G               D
As you walk through the tunnel, closer to something
Bm                       G                D
Turning back home after 15 years, and it seems
          Bm                       G                 Dm Dsus2 Dm C#m
That perhaps you will miss them now no one is watching


Bm                     G                  D     C#m
Crossing the river to see those familiar faces
        Bm                      G              D  C#m
Took a picture and said it was good to document
        Bm                     G                     D  C#m
With a laughing crowd pointing fingers and whispering
         Bm                     G                     Dm      Dsus2 Dm C#m
For the goodbye of them you can do what the fuck you please...


Bm           G                 F#m       A
A fork and a knife, sit straight, smile 
    Bm                   G           F#m  A
For old times' sake, for all goodbyes
    Bm            G          F#m               A
For heaven's sake, shut your mouth, shut your mouth
Bm                  G          F#m               A        
Sit straight, smile, shut your mouth, shut your mouth


          Bm                    G               D   C#m
Cool your feet in the ocean and think for a moment:
          Bm                      G                     D   C#m
It could always be something, but it's not really worth it
       Bm                      G                   D   C#m
It's a well-written story with all the ingredients - 
        Bm                       G                    D   C#m
How the mean witch called you to say you were nothing
        Bm                     G                    D   C#m
Now she sleeps in a box in the good soil of Denmark
        Bm                     G                    Dm Dsus2 Dm C#m
NOW SHE SLEEPS IN A BOX IN THE GOOD SOIL OF DENMARK...


Bm            G              F#m    A
A truth and a lie, shut your mouth
    Bm                   G           F#m   A
For old times' sake, for all goodbyes
    Bm            G          F#m               A
For heaven's sake, shut your mouth, shut your mouth
Bm                  G          F#m               A
Sit straight, smile, shut your mouth, shut your mouth...


...now shut it!
