[Intro] Bbm Ab Ebm Fm [Verse 1]
Bbm
    Each morning after Sunblest

Ebm                   Fm
    Feel the benefit, mental arithmetic

Bbm
    I waited by the staffroom

Ebm             Fm
    In time for benediction
[Chorus]
Gb                Fm
Living a law just short of delusion

Ebm              Ab
When we fall in love there's confusion

Gb               Fm             Ebm            Ab
This must be the place I waited years to leave
[Verse 2]
Bbm
    To our voices nobody's listening

Ebm                  Fm
    We shiver in the rain by the touchline

Bbm
    Then a coach ride to the station

Ebm           Fm
"My lord, the carriage awaiteth!"
[Chorus]
Gb                Fm
Living a law just short of delusion

Ebm              Ab
When we fall in love there's confusion

Gb               Fm             Ebm            Ab
This must be the place I waited years to leave

Gb               Fm             Ebm            Ab
This must be the place I waited years to leave

     Fm
And how
How long? Bbm Ab Ebm Fm [Bridge]
    Bbm                                  Ab
I'm listening to the words I thought I'd never hear again

  Ebm                         Fm
A litany of saints and other ordinary men

 Bbm
Kneeling on the parquet

     Ab
Whatever has gone wrong?

    Ebm
The fear and feeling hopelessness

  Fm
I don't want to belong
Bbm Ab Ebm Fm (last one) Bbm Ab Ebm Gb Fm [Verse 3]
Bbm
    I dreamt I was back in uniform

Ebm                 Fm
    And a candidate for examination

Bbm
    History, someone had blundered

Ebm                   Fm
    And a voice rapped "knuckle under!"
[Chorus]
Gb                Fm
Living a law just short of delusion

Ebm              Ab
When we fall in love there's confusion

Gb               Fm              Ebm              Ab
This must be the place I waited years to leave

Gb               Fm              Ebm              Ab
This must be the place I waited years to leave

       Bbm  Ab  Ebm  Fm
And how

       Bbm  Ab  Ebm  Fm
And how

       Bbm  Ab  Ebm  Fm
How long?
