Special Two- Missy Higgins
Capo 2

Verse 1

Am             G/B            C
I've hardly been outside my room in days,
Am           G/B                  C
'cause I don't feel that I deserve the sunshine's rays.
Am               G/B          C
The darkness helped until the whiskey wore away,
Am            G/B             C
It was then I realized the conscience never fades.
Am                  G/B          C
When you're young you have this image of your life,
Am             G/B                C
that you'll be scrupulous and one day even make a wife.
Am             G/B           C
And you'll make boundaries you never dream to cross,
Am            G/B            C
and if you happen to you wake completely lost.

Chorus
F         G
But I will fight for you,
Am        G      F                     Am          G    F    G
be sure that I will fight until we're the special two once again.
Am           G                     C                  F
And we will only need each other we'll bleed together, our hands will not be Am             G
taught to hold another's,
Csus4     C
'Cause we're the special two.
Am            G                    C                      F
And we could only see each other, we'll breathe together, these arms will
Am             G
not be taught to need another's,
Csus4      C
'Cause we're the special two.

Verse 2
Am              G/B            C
I remember someone old once said to me,
Am               G/B          C
that 'lies will lock you up with truth the only key'.
Am               G/B          C
But I was comfortable and warm inside my shell,
Am                  G/B          C
and couldn't see this place could soon become my hell.
Am               G/B              C
So is it better to tell and hurt or lie to save their face?
Am             G/B         C
Well I guess the answer is don't do it in the first place.
Am                G/B                 C
I know I?m not deserving of your trust from you right now,
Am                     G              Csus4     C        F
Oh, but if by chance you change your mind you know I will not let you down
Am         Gm            F    G
'Cause we were the special two, and will be again.

Chorus

Am           G                     C                  F
And we will only need each other we'll bleed together, our hands will not be
Am             G
taught to hold another's,
Csus4     C
'Cause we're the special two.
Am            G                    C                      F
And we could only see each other, we'll breathe together, these arms will
Am             G
not be taught to need another's,
F         G
'Cause we're the special two.


Bridge

Dm               G             Am
I step outside my minds eye's for a minute
Dm               G                      Am
And I look over me like a doctor looking for disease or something

that could ease the pain.
Dm             G
But nothing cures the hurt you,
E7             F
Bring on by yourself,
G                  C   G
Just remembering, just remembering how we were


Chorus
F         G
But I will fight for you,
Am        G      F                     Am          G    F    G
be sure that I will fight until we're the special two once again.
Am           G                     C                  F
And we will only need each other we'll bleed together, our hands will not be
Am             G
taught to hold another's,
Csus4     C
'Cause we're the special two.
Am            G                    C                      F
And we could only see each other, we'll breathe together, these arms will
Am             G
not be taught to need another's,
Csus4      C
'Cause we're the special two.
