Chords

[Intro] Eb Bb Eb Bb Ab [Verse]
Bb
Five o'clock, a Turin sky

          Bb
Where the day-end's sleepy shadows slide

Bb
A train of thought will wake you soon

          Bb
I'll gaze up from Ariadne's afternoon
[Bridge]
    Ebmaj7
And oh, just like she, eternally

Bb
Bound up in fantasy

   Ebmaj7
Comparing life I know to life in

Bb
Books and television shows

      Db
Just imitating

        F
All the things they're faking
[Chorus]
         Cm       Bb
Coz it's hard enough

Cm       Bb
Just to love

Eb                      Bb
Never mind the time and distance

Cm                    Bb
Nothing could be so remiss as

Cm          Bb        Cm        F
Making promises that you can't keep, oh oh

     Cm       Bb
It's hard enough

Cm       Bb
Not to love

Eb                      Bb
Nothing's gonna last forever

Cm                    Bb
Maybe we could just endeavour

Cm          Bb                  Cm       F
To try to get along together, we could see

        Db Cm Eb
Like Ariadne

   Db Cm Eb
Ariadne

  Db Cm Eb
Ariadne

  Db Cm Eb
Ariadne
[Verse]
    Bb
And I believe you care for me

           Bb
Though I'm not the girl you thought I'd be

    Bb
The face may fit, the long dark hair

          Bb
But that slowly, stern and sullen stare
[Bridge]
    Ebmaj7
And when I try my best just to connect

Bb
With that great part of you

     Ebmaj7                             Bb
The words all tumble out, those virgin vows

     Bb
Well some would go without

     Db                   F
That deeper meaning of unspoken feeling
[Chorus]
         Cm       Bb
Coz it's hard enough

Cm       Bb
Just to love

Eb                      Bb
Never mind the time and distance

Cm                    Bb
Nothing could be so remiss as

Cm          Bb        Cm        F
Making promises that you can't keep, oh oh

     Cm7       Bb
It's hard enough

Cm       Bb
Not to love

Eb                      Bb
Nothing's gonna last forever

Cm                    Bb
Maybe we could just endeavour

Cm          Bb                  Cm       F
To try to get along together, we could see

        Db Cm Eb
Like Ariadne

   Db Cm Eb
Ariadne

  Db Cm Eb
Ariadne

    Db Cm Eb
Oh Ariadne

  Db Cm Eb
Ariadne
[Bridge]
    Ebmaj7
And when I try my best just to connect

Bbmaj7
I feel you turn away

     Ebmaj7                             Bbmaj7
Your words all tumble out, they make no sound

     Bb
And I am left without

      Db                   F
Your deeper meaning of unspoken feeling
[Chorus]
         Cm       Bb
Coz it's hard enough

Cm       Bb
Just to love

Eb                      Bb
Never mind the time and distance

Cm                    Bb
Nothing could be more remiss than

Cm          Bb        Cm        F
Making promises that you can't keep, oh oh

     Cm7       Bb
It's hard enough

Cm       Bb
Not to love

Eb                      Bb
Nothing's gonna last forever

Cm                    Bb
Maybe we could just endeavour

Cm          Bb                  Cm       F
To try to get along together, we could see

         Cm       Bb
Oh it's hard

Cm       Bb
Not to love

Eb                      Bb
Nothing's gonna last forever

Cm                    Bb
Maybe we could just endeavour

Cm          Bb                  Cm       F
To try to get along together, we could see

             F
Hey we could see, hey we could see

           F
Oh we could see, see
