[Intro] C#m C#m9 C#m C#m9 C#m [Verse]

                  C#m9        C#m
Okay, well I just woke up

        C#m9                 Bsus4
And you already don't care

       B                    Bsus4
That I tried my best to hold you

            B                     F#m/A
Through the headset that you wear

                        A6        F#m/A
And as tight as I might hold it

     A6                      Emaj9
Over where the signal's good

                  E6/9                    Emaj9
There's no way to save your evening now

            E6/9
Through the little phone that could

C#m [Verse 2]

              C#m9       C#m
And yes I was tempted

                     C#m9                   Bsus4      B
And it christened me lonely, I pretended to falter

                    Bsus4           B
And I burnt scented candles there

                     F#m/A            A6
And I hung some good pictures where

                  F#m/A                   A6
Thе paintwork was perfect so no-one could doubt it

                E6/9
Oh, I was still losing

Emaj9 E6/9 Emaj9 [Chorus] E

   E7/D                 C#m*
So show me the land you acquired

    A         A#dim     Bsus4
And slip into something beside

    B7               E
The holes you try to hide

    E7/D               C#m*
And lay out your rules for the night

    A              A#dim       Bsus4   B7
Oh, don't eat your toast in my bed

           C#m9  D#m
Oh darling I

        E*                A                 A#dim
I never felt the crumbs until you said this place

           Bsus4
Is not for any man

       B7
Nor particles of bread

[Verse 3] C#m9 C#m C#m9 C#m C#m

               C#m9         C#m
Furnished your suffering

                  C#m9                         Bsus4    B
You played a good organ, the world gathered singing

                      Bsus4    B
Good words that you'd stolen

                F#m/A       A6
And every phone died  then

               F#m/A               A6
And no-one had WiFi   inside your apartment

                    Emaj9
So we knelt at your altar

E6/9 Emaj9 E6/9 [Verse] C#m

                  C#m9        C#m
Okay, well I just woke up

        C#m9                 Bsus4
And you already don't care

       B                    Bsus4
That I tried my best to hold you

            B                     F#m/A
Through the headset that you wear

                        A6        F#m/A
And as tight as I might hold it

     A6                      Emaj9
Over where the signal's good

                  E6/9                    Emaj9
There's no way to save your evening now

        E6/9
And I'm ready for us to be understood

[Chorus] E

   E7/D                 C#m*
So show me the land you acquired

    A         A#dim     Bsus4
And slip into something beside

    B7               E
The holes you try to hide

    E7/D               C#m*
And lay out your rules for the night

    A              A#dim       Bsus4   B7
Oh, don't eat your toast in my bed

           C#m9  D#m
Oh darling I

        E*                A                 A#dim
I never felt the crumbs until you said this place

           Bsus4
Is not for any man

       B7
Nor particles of bread

[Outro] C#m
