G                                    C                  C/B
  Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone

  It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong

Em                                Am7                  
  Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song

B7
  I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long

G                               C                  C/B
  The window's open now and the winter settles in

  We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin  

Em                             Am7
  I love your depression and I love your double chin 

B7
  I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering
Chorus
Am               G           Am           G     G6 Gsus4 G
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair

Am               G            Am                     G    G6 Gsus4 G
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair

   Am               G            Am                G   G6 Gsus4 G
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up

       Am            G               Am                     G 
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
Verse 2
G                                   C                 C/B

Am7                     D/A               G           D/F#
 Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone

Em                             Am7 
 We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn

B7
 We could make babies and accidental songs

G                              C                    C/B
 I know I've been a liar and I know I've been a fool

Am7                     D/A          G                      D/F#
 I hope we didn't break yet, but I'm glad we broke the rules

Em                             Am7 
 My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through

B7
 I cover my eyes, still all I see is you
Chorus
Am               G           Am           G     G6 Gsus4 G

Am               G            Am                     G    G6 Gsus4 G
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair

   Am               G            Am                G   G6 Gsus4 G
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up

'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
