C5 G5 I've been talking to the wall and it's been answering me A5 E5 Oh darling how I miss you F5 C5 I'm just the mere shadow of my former selfishness D5 G5 I crave the silhouette of your kiss C5 G5 With only the blue light of the TV on A5 E5 Lip reading threats and false alarms F5 C5 There's a boy somewhere holding hands with himself D5 G5 And a girl in a window on the Reeperbarn F5 F#5 C5 E5 Whenever I put my foot in my mouth and you begin to doubt A5 D5 That it's you that I'm dreaming about F5 F5 Do I have to draw you a diagram? F#5 C5 D5 A5 All I ever want is just to fall into your human hands C5 G5 With the kings and queens of the dance hall craze A5 E5 Checkmate in three moves in your heyday F5 C5 But the girls don't listen to your line anymore D5 G5 Now you're part of someone else C5 G5 A5 On the factory floor and you still say "Wheres the action?" E5 F5 Now you manufacture happiness C5 G5 And get sold on the cheap for someone's satisfaction (chorus) C5 G5 All you toy soldiers and scaremongers A5 E5 Are you living in this world sometimes I wonder F5 C5 D5 G5 In between saying you've seen too much and saying you've seen it all before C5 G5 Tighter and tighter I hold you tightly A5 You know I love you more than slightly C5 D5 G5 Although I've never said it like this before
