C             Eb     D    A   C        Eb    D    A    F       Fm(Stop) 
Your love was only a whisper away, scratch my hands and say
                   
                      C            G    Ab   Bb

Verse 2 (same as verse 1)

I've forgot all that I had, still livin about your pad,
It's a mean unleasant land
Sometimes you come in deep inside, sometimes it doesn't touch the sides,
Like a sausage up an alleyway

(Repeat chorus)

How innocent is the day, when you smiled and then you lay on your side

    E                G    Ab              G     Ab
Below     outdoor sun?... It's another plan... It's another land
