    Am       Amb6      Am4            Am
 No time, no place, to talk about the weather

 The promise of love is hard to ignore

 Highest branch on the apple tree

    Am     G6/A      Fmaj7/A  C
 It was my favourite place to be

 Am      Amb6      Am4      Am

   It feels like nothing matters in our private universe

A whole lot more I'm thinking of Every night about six o'clock Birds come back to the pond to talk Talk to me, birds talk to me If I go down on my knees CHORUS 2: I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse It feels like nothing matters in our private universe Feels like nothing matters in our private universe BRIDGE 2: Am Am Am Am
