  Absence makes the   heart lose weight, yeah,

   The sweet September rain
G(no 3rd) G5  A5  
  Rain on me,  like no other

  Until I drown, until I drown

  When love breaks down, the things you do
F5

   My love and I,
G5
   We are boxing clever
A5                      F5
   She'll never crowd me out
G(no 3rd)  G5       A5  
  Fall, be free as   old confetti
D5
  And paint the town, paint the town
