Accidental Babies - Damien Rice

[Standard Tuning]

Intro:
Dm   G   C Am   G

Verse1:
        F
Well I held you like a lover
	G			C	    Csus4	Am   G
Happy hands, your elbow in the appropriate place
    F				G
And we ignored our others' happy plans
	    		C	       Csus4	Am      G
For that delicate look upon your face
        F
Our bodies moved and hardened
	G			   C	    	Csus4
Hurting parts of your garden, With no room for a pardon
      Am         C			     F       G
In a place where no one knows what we have done


Chorus:
	Dm    G		              C    Csus4  Am   G
Do you come       together ever with him?
	Dm      G		              C     Csus4  Am    G
And is he dark    enough, enough to see your light?
	    Dm     		              G
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
         C    Csus4  Am   G
Do you miss my smell?
	   Dm			      G		 C		Csus4   Am  G
and is he bold enough to take you on,    do you feel like you belong?
	Dm                  G	         C         Csus4  Am    G
and does he drive you wild,   or just mildly free?
	    F      G
What about me?

Verse2:
          F
Well you held me like a lover 
	G			   C	      Csus4	Am   G
Sweaty hands, and my foot in the appropriate place
F			  G
We use cushions to cover happy glands
	    		C	       Csus4	Am      G
In the mild issue of our disgrace
     F					 G			
Our minds pressed and guarded While our flesh disregarded
      C		 Csus4           Am		F	   	     G	
The lack of space for the light-hearted, in the boom that beats our drum

        F
Well I know I make you cry,
       G
and I know sometimes you wanna die
    C	           Csus4  	Am       G
But do you really feel alive without me,
           F
if so, be free
		      G	     C	                Csus4	   Am      G
If not, leave him for me, before one of us has accidental babies
	    F      G
For we are in love

-==Chorus==-
	    F      G
What about me?
