Intro

A F♯m A F♯m A F♯m E A B E A B E A B E A B

  EOnce upAon Ba sEign I reAad Ba wEarning anAd iBt sEaid

  'WhAen iBn REome don't fAeed tBhe lEions'

  WhAat iBt meEant I can't hAazaBrd a guEess A B

  But nBow I've leEarnt my lAessoBn I'm a bEetter pAersoBn

  I'm fiElled up with hAigh hBopes and I'm fEed up with sAoft soBaps

  LC♯mong in the tooth and shBort on wisdom

  F♯mUp to here with the aBche of it

  And if the maEtchmaker calls hC♯mand in hand

  With a catch of the dEay I'll rise to the bBait

  But it'll still be mEore than a heart can take

  MC♯more than feeling great

  EMore than a tongue can tBell

  I'd nEeed to tAake leBave oEf my sAensBes to gBet a moment's rEest A B

  FEollowing in footstAeps B

  FEootsure in faAncy BdreEss A B B

  HC♯mead in my hands I'm mBaking plans

  HF♯moovering up for the dBay

  When the maEtchmaker calls hC♯mand in hand

  With the catch of the dEay I'll raise to the bBait

  But it'll still be mEore then a heart can take

  MC♯more than feeling great

  MEore than a tongue can tBell

Instrumental break

F♯ G♯m B C♯ F♯ G♯m B C♯

  And the iC♯mtch to get rG♯mich quick

  Has nAever been so hBard to reach

  With my hEands tied behAindB my bEack A B

  SEhin deep in cemAent aBnd sEand A B B

  Just like the anchor-mEan I broke loose

  And crC♯mashed to the sea bed

  ClEutching the shortest stBraw

  And if you threw me a liEne that's as smart as you tC♯mhink

  It wouldn't stop me siEnking down to cry

  On what flBashed before my eEyes C♯m E B

 Repeat E C♯m E B and fade
