[F] I once had a friend who I loved from my Heart,
But I [Bb] went on and left her for [C7] I'd made a start,
Now I'm [F] moanin' the blues like the rest of the charts
Take me [Bb] back [C7]

So I'll [F] cry with a limp
just get by on a limp
Till these [Bb] blue eyes of mine they are [F] closed
So [Bb] here's to an old fashioned [F] peck on the cheek
And [C7] farewell my sweet Northern [F] Rose

Give me one last love song
to [Bb] bring you back, bring you [C7] back
give me [F] one last video, [Bb] dressed in black, dressed in [C7] black
[Bb] give him a chorus and that [F] bit at the end
where he [Bb] wails on and on 'bout the [F] loss of a friend
[Bb] let him scream loadly 'well this love could [C7] mend'
Let it die, let it die [F]

Those bloody great ballads we hated at first
well I bought them all, now I'm writing worse
Save me from baldness and saving the earth
Take me back

And I'll smile with a limp
And I'll love with a limp
Till the clouds disappear from above
And as the storm moves away, all I can say
Is there's a towel in the door for your love

Give me one last love song
to [Bb] bring you back, bring you [C7] back
give me [F] one last video, [Bb] dressed in black, dressed in [C7] black
[Bb] give him a chorus and that [F] bit at the end
where he [Bb] wails on and on 'bout the [F] loss of a friend
[Bb] let him scream loudly 'well this love could [C7] mend'
Let it die, let it die, let it [F] die.
