Intro 
-----

Am7  G/B  C   G/B
Am7  G/B  C   G/B


Verse 1
-------

     G
When routine bites hard
       C           G
And am-bitions are low
       G
And re-sentment rides high
      C            G
And e-motions won't grow
          G
And we're changing our ways
       C           G
Taking different roads


Chorus 1
--------

    Am7  G/B                 C      G/B
And love love will tear us a-part a-gain
Am7   G/B   C


Verse 2
-------
           G
Why is the bedroom so cold
           C           G
You turn a-way on your side
      G
Is my timing that flawed
         C           G
Does res-pect run so dry
            G
Yet there's still this appeal
           C                G
That we've kept through our lives


Chorus 2
--------

Am7  G/B                 C      G/B
And love love will tear us a-part a-gain
Am7  G/B                 C
love love will tear us a-part

Chorus 3
--------

    Am7  G/B                 C      G/B
And love love will tear us a-part a-gain
Am7  G/B                 C
love love will tear us a-part


Verse 3
-------

    G
You cry out in your sleep
       C           G
All my failings ex-posed
          G
There's a taste in my mouth
          C           G
As desper-ation takes hold
          G
Just that something so good
           C           G
Just can't function no more


Chorus 4
--------

    Am7  G/B                 C      G/B
And love love will tear us a-part a-gain
Am7  G/B                 C      G/B
love love will tear us a-part a-gain
Am7  G/B                 C      G/B
love love will tear us a-part a-gain
Am7  G/B                 C
love  love will tear us a-part
