[Verse]
C                                   F
I'm sorry about the argument at the weekend

              Am
I should have listened to what you said in the first place

           G
And that I should have been your friend

      C                                     F
But I finally tidied up the garage like you asked me

           Am
I put some laundry on

                                        G
Both our clothes this time and not just mine
[Chorus]
C            F                   G
'Cause we've both been doing our best

Am                           C
Skirting 'round the edges of perfect

F               G
Darling, I know this

         Am                 G
It's the work that makes it worth it

                            F
It's the work that makes it worth it
[Verse]
          C                                       F
I've been brushing up on your family tree for the party

              Am
I'll get your cousins, your half cousins and your step cousins

    G
The right way around this time

      C                                           F
But I promise to remember to bring you tea in the morning

             Am                                         G
To heed your warnings about when I'm about to cross the line
[Chorus]
C            F                   G
'Cause we've both been doing our best

Am                           C
Skirting 'round the edges of perfect

F               G
Darling, I know this

         Am                 G
It's the work that makes it worth it

                            F
It's the work that makes it worth it
[Bridge]
Am                                F
'Cause I did my fair share of the rock'n'roll

                  C                          Em
Three minutes and Fifteen seconds version of love

       Am                  F
But me I always needed the B sides

                 C        Em
And not just the best of

      Am                       F
I saw fireworks aplenty when I met you

              C                           Em
But now we've worked to build this into a fire

        Am                   F
I don't want to burn out any more

          C
I want to visit the coast in Kent with you

     G                                 F
On a weekday afternoon when we're both retired
[Chorus]
C            F                   G
'Cause we've both been doing our best

Am                           C
Skirting 'round the edges of perfect

F               G
Darling, I know this

         Am                 G
It's the work that makes it worth it

         C                  F
It's the work that makes it worth it

                            C
It's the work that makes it worth it

                            F
It's the work that makes it worth it

                            Am
It's the work that makes it worth it

                       G
The work won't make it perfect

                           F
But the work will make it worth it
