As recorded by Belle and Sebastian (From the 2022 Album A BIT OF PREVIOUS) [Verse 1]
N.C.               G
Can I call you sometime?

                   Am7
Talk it out on the phone

                    D7/F#
We don't have to be lovers

                 C/E
We could be less alone

                   G/D
It's a rough rocky road

                      C
And it's going to get steep

                   Bm7
I just wanted your soft tone

               Am
To allow me to sleep
[Chorus]
                   Am   D
And I sometimes confuse you for

G      Em
God or angel

C      D      G      G7
You're just a person

                     Am
And I'm sometimes confused

D     G           Em
I got glory in my mind

  C    Am       D     Dsus4  D
A soft summer unwinds
[Verse 2]
D                  G
I just want you to know

                  Am7
All your problems are mine

                         D7/F#
I will breathe them like fire smoke

                 C/E
I will make us divine

                     G/D
Underneath your thin skin

                C
We are prophets on hold

             Bm7
Elеmental disciples

                     Am
Waiting for our time to unfold
[Chorus]
                   Am   D
And I sometimes confuse you for

G      Em
God or angel

C      D      G      G7
You're just a person

                     Am
And I'm sometimes confused

D     G           Em
I got glory in my mind

  C    Am       D
A soft summer unwinds
[Harmonica Solo] D C D C Bm7 Am7 Gmaj7 [Bridge]
              Em       D
And I dreamt about you breathing

      C                    G
We're all in thrall to the past

              Em       D
And I dreamt about you leaving

C                  Gmaj7
Living in the same house

         Cmaj7
You kiss awkward

Gmaj7          Cmaj7
Lips dried and closed

Fmaj7      Bbmaj7
He was the first one

    Fmaj7
You cared for

   Bbmaj7     A
It lasted for years

               C                 Gmaj7
And I close my eyes, to see you again

               C                 Gmaj7
And I close my eyes, to see you again
[Out-Chorus]
                   Am   D
And I sometimes confuse you for

G      Em
God or angel

C      D      G      G7
You're just a person

                     Am
And I'm sometimes confused

D     G           Em
I got glory in my mind

  C    Am       D
A soft summer unwinds

                   Am   D
And I sometimes confuse you for

G      Em
God or angel

C      D      G      G7
You're just a person

                     Am
And I'm sometimes confused

D     G           Em
I got glory in my mind . . .
