It's just F and G though the entire song.



F       G           F       G        
I have lost you to sleep again. 

F             G               F                 G
sleeping as we do on opposite sides of a venn diagram

F           G           F          G                
I read the time in shadows on the wall 

     F         G                  F              G
the shards of light through the slats on your window

   F     G
ah ha ha ha

   F     G
ah ha ha ha

I ease myself from under your languid arm,
 fumble on my boots and hear you breathe through your alarm 
I disarm it for you, 
you rarely heed it anyway 
I wouldn't want it to intrude upon your dream, 
school bell ring messing up the play

ah ha ha ha!

A note, penned clumsily in this century's type-
ruined hand saying gone down the shops for a walk 
I'll bring back some sandwiches and then I kiss your face, 
the black and the blue tie it into my laces,
 I don't want the wander blocking up the view

ah ha ha ha!

I stumble out into the afternoon. 
still salty from drink and the late night pool 
I'll be gone an hour at most, 
you will be more diagonal 
I've a head on me in the post, I know, 
a castle swallowed in the swell.

ah ha ha ha! ...
