[C]
It's what my heart just yearns to say, in ways that can't be said.
It's what my rotting bones will sing, when the rest of me is dead.
It's what's engraved upon my heart, in letters deeply worn.
Today I somehow understand, the reason I was born.
Cos outwardly, he says, I try so hard to make you laugh at me.
And she, she does, she laughs as though she's not heard the joke,
Ten thousand times before in the Adusa.
He watches her [F] get dressed as though she's hurtling through time.
Oh darling, please be mine, she [C] promises to fight them all,
When it all becomes too much.
And he, he curses at the world for leaving him behind,
And he's fallen out of touch and she is stronger,
Than he's ever been, he knows.
She brushes her hand through his hair, he's [F] got so much fucking [C] hair,
And he [Am] holds her close, just to keep the world at [F] bay.
And [Am] when they're sure no one can hear them,
[F] She'll turn to him and say, she'll turn to him and say,
[C] It's not fair, it's not fair how [F] much I love you.
It's [Am] not fair, cos you make me laugh,
When I'm actually really fucking [F] cross at you for something.
And he'll [C] say, oh how, oh how [F] unreasonable,
How [Am] unreasonably in love I am with everything you do.
I'll spend my days so [F] close to you, cos if I'm standing here,
Maybe [C] everyone will think I'm alright.
I've seen enough, he says, I know exactly what I want,
And it's this life that we've created,
Inundated with the fated [F] thought of you.
And if [C] you asked me to, if you asked [F] me I would lose it all,
Like petals in a storm.
Cos darling I was [C] born to press my head between your shoulder blades,
At night when light is fading,
Just to let you know, I'm old, waylaid and feels like I am waiting.
[F] Into carpet bands and carousels, Christ you'll be the death of me.
And calm throughout this melodrama, she will [G] turn and say,
Dear heart [Am] it's me, it's me.
You don't need to [A] pretend to be someone [F] you're not,
Cos it's not like I've never heard you fart and [G] snore,
And [Am] for some godforsaken reason,
I'm still here love, like I've [F] always been before.
And he'll [Em] say, [C]
it's not fair,
It's not fair how [F] much I love you,
[G] It's [Am] not fair,
Cos you make me weep when I'm just trying [F] to watch the office,
With my noggin.
And she'll [C] say, oh how,
Oh how [F] unreasonable,
How [Am] unreasonably in love I am, with everything you do.
I'll spend my [G] days so [F] close to you,
Cos if I'm standing here, maybe everyone will [C] think I'm Cool.

How unfair, how unfair they'll sing,
As they dance across the darling rooftop rack.
[F] He'll trip, [C] and she'll pretend not to have seen,
Burying her head into his chest and clinging,
To the moment where, [Am] have you been?
She'll whisper, I've [F] waited oh so long,
So long for you too.
[Am] And as the [D] stars above them hum and [Am] hear them,
[F] He'll turn to her and say, that's what she said,
[C]
It's not fair,
Oh it's not fair how [F] much I love you,
[G] It's [Am] not fair,
Cos you [N] make me ache you bastard.
