Leave Before The Lights Come On (Single)
Arctic Monkeys


(intro) C Em Dm

C                   Em                         Dm
Well this is a good idea he wouldn't do it if it wasn't
He wouldn't do it if it wasn't one. 
C                  Em                          Dm
Well my friend fancies you, oh what a way to begin it all
You said it's always exciting words to hear

       Em                                   Dm
And we woke up together not quite realising how 
                              Em                            Dm
Oh when your stretching and yawning, its always hard in the morning
Em                                 Dm
And I suppose that's the price you pay
                    Em                                      Dm
Oh it isn't what it was, she's thinking he looks different today
and oh there's nothing left to guess now.

(solo) C Em Dm

C                           Em                                Dm
You left before the lights came on because you didn't want to ruin
All the lust that was brewing before he absolutely had to
C                    Em                         Dm
And how can you wake up with someone you don't love? 
And not feel slightly fazed by it oh, he had a struggle

        Em                                   Dm
And you woke up together not quite realising how 
                             Em                             Dm
Oh but he's stretching and yawning it's always hard in the morning


Em                                 Dm
And I suppose that's the price you pay
                    Em                                      Dm
Oh it isn't what it was, she's thinking he looks different today
and oh there's nothing left to guess now.


C                             Am   
Quick let's leave before the lights come on
             Dm                 Am
Cos then you don't have to see
             Dm                         F
Cos then you don't have to see what you've done   (x2)


(instrumental) Am    G     F      E


I'll walk you up, what time's the bus come?
