Bm                     A     Bm
When we walked the streets together
Bm                                   A     Bm
All the faces seemed to smile back,
Bm                                           Em
And now the pavements have nothing to offer
D         Em                                Bm     A     Bm
And all the faces seem to need a slap

               Bm              A   Bm
There?s an unfamiliar grip
Bm                             A    Bm
on an unfamiliar handkerchief
Bm
Attending to the tears on cheeks
Em                 D     Em
I wouldn?t notice
Em                                       Bm         A   Bm
With you no matter how vicious the grief
Bm                 Em                D       Em
Her expression was damp and crooked
Em                                    Bm      D    C#   G
Grabs onto my throat and won?t let go

A        F#    Bm   D  C#  G
Won?t let go
A        F#    Bm   D  C#  G
Won?t let go
A        F#    Bm   D  C#  G
Won?t let go

Bm         D      C#   G
Save me from
A        F#
The secateurs
Bm      D    C#   G
I?ll pretend
A        F#
I didn?t hear
Bm             D
Can?t you see
C#                G         A        F#
I?m the ghost in the wrong coat
Bm      D    C#   G    A    F#   Bm
Biting butter and crumbs

( Bm  A  Bm )

             Bm                 A   Bm
There?s a handsome maverick
Bm                                    A     Bm
You don?t talk about to keep me calm
Bm                         Em              D   Em
And I can't help it if I create a version
Em                            Bm      A     Bm
That pulls you back onto his arm

Bm           D     G    F#
Please don?t tell me
Bm           D     G    F#     Bm    D   G   F#
You don?t have to darling, I can sense
Bm   D   G   F#       E       D
That he painted you a gushing sunset
C#               A                   Bm       D   G   F#
And slayed angry panthers in your defence.
 Bm     D      G     F#         E       D
And he stands separate and ever deadly
C#                               Bm      D    C#   G
Clings onto my throat and won?t let go

A        F#    Bm   D  C#  G
Won?t let go
A        F#    Bm   D  C#  G
Won?t let go
A        F#    Bm   D  C#  G
Won?t let go

Bm
Save me from
Bm
The secateurs
Bm
I?ll pretend
Bm
I didn?t hear
Bm
Can?t you see
Bm
I?m a ghost in the wrong coat
Bm                       A   Bm
Biting butter and crumbs
