The 2 Of Us (Anderson/Butler)

A5           C5
Lying in my bed, I think of you
A5                         C5                      A5
That song goes through my head, the one we both knew
A5                  C5
In each line lies another line full of sacred sound
A5                            C5                                  F5
But you're outside where the companies dream and the money goes round

F5            G5
Lying in my bed
               E5
Watching my mistakes
                 F5                                  G5    F5    E5 F5   G5 F5   E5   E5
I listen to the band they said that it could be the 2 of us

A5                       C5
The snow might fall and write the lines on the silent page
A5                         C5                            A5
But you're outside making permanent love to the nuclear age
A5                      C5
Two silhouettes by the cash machine make a lovers dance
A5                    C5                             F5
It's a tango for the lonely wives of the business class

F5            G5
Lying in my bed
               E5
Watching my mistakes
                 F5
I listen to the band
F5            G5
Lying in my bed
                     E5                      F5
With nothing much to say so I listen to the man
                             G5    F5    E5 F5   G5 F5   E5   E5
He said that it could be the 2 of us

A5                      C5                                A5
I heard you call from across the city through the stereo sound
                        C5                                    F5
And so I crawled there sickeningly pretty as the money went round

F5            G5
Lying in my head
               E5
Watching my mistakes
                 F5
I listen to the band
F5                        G5
And the drums beat in my head
                  E5
Pianos chime the sound
                       F5
In this prison of the house
F5                         G5
And as the illness comes again
                            E5
Can you hear me through the rain
                    F5
As I listen to the band?
F5                     G5
As I sing the silent song
                 E5
Mime each lonely word
                      F5
Please listen to the man
                             G5    F5    E5 F5   G5 F5
He said that it could be the 2 of us

C5              F5       G5       C5
Alone but not lonely, you and me
C5              F5       G5       C5
Alone but not lonely, you and me
C5          F5      G5      C5
Alone but loaded, oh-oh-oh
C5          F5      G5      C5
Alone but loaded, oh-oh-oh
C5   F5   G5     C5
        Oh-oh-oh
C5   F5   G5     C5
        Oh-oh-oh
