Capo 3

Hello everyone. This is also largely not my tab, but copy pasted and then changed 
to show the entire song from beginning to end, and from what I've seen Damien 
himself play live. Note that the french part of the song isn't tabbed as Damien 
plays it but the chord combination still works. Also note that the G7 chord isn't 
a G7 chord but a slightly altered one because I couldn't find the right name for it.

C 
Well I don't know if I'm wrong
B/Am 
Cause she's only just gone 
Am                      G7
Here's to another relationship 
F                  Em
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
F                        G7
I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means


C                               B/Am
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could 
Am                              G7
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
F                               Em
And an overcast play just taken away 
F                               G7
From the lover?s in love at the center of stage, yeah


Fmaj7
Loving is fine if you have plenty of time
G6
For walking on stilts, at the edge of your mind and
Fmaj7
Loving is good if your dick's made of wood
G6
And the dick left inside, only half understood her 


Fmaj7 
What makes her come and what makes her stay 
G6
What makes the animal run, run away, yeah
Fmaj7 
What makes him stall, what makes him stand
G6                                                      (mute)
And what shakes the elephant now and what makes a man 


Fmaj7         G6            Am6/9 
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know 
Am6/9 G6   Fmaj7 G6     C 
No I don't know you anymore 

C Cmaj7 Fmaj7 
No, no, no, no... 
C                 Fmaj7 
Oh yeah... Hey hey, hey hey...


C
I don't know if I'm wrong
E7
'Cause she?s only just gone
Am                              G7
Why the fuck is this day taking so long 
F                               Em
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
F                               G7
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed 


C                                       E7
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Am                                      G7
Well closer to God is the one who's in love 
F                       Em
And I walk away cause I can 
F                       G7
Too many options may kill a man 


Fmaj7
Loving is fine if it's not in your mind 
G6
But I've fucked it up now, too many times 
Fmaj7
Loving is good if it's not understood 
G6
Yeah, but I'm the professor and feel that I should know 


Fmaj7 
What makes her come and what makes her stay
G6
What makes the animal run, run away and 
Fmaj7
What makes him tick apart from him prick 
G6
And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick


Fmaj7         G6            Am6/9 
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know 
Fmaj7
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know 
Fmaj7         G6            Am6/9
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, know, know
Am6/9 G6   Fmaj7 G6     C 
Hell I don't know you anymore 

C Cmaj7 Fmaj7 
No, no, no no...  
C             Fmaj7 
Oh yeah... Hey hey...

Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease 
F                                       G7
I finished it off with some French wine and cheese

Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc 
F                       G7
Quand on est ensemble, mettre les mots 

Sur la petite dodo
