         Emaj7            Ebm            F#            E6
I've got six things on my mind you're no longer one of them

(Desire as a self-figured creature who changes her mind) [Verse]
              B               G#m9
They were the best times, the harvest years

                     F#          Emaj7
With jam to lace the bread

   B         G#m9
So goodness, goodness knows why I'd

                F#          Emaj7
Throw it to the birds
[Bridge]
F#        Emaj7
 But there it is,

F#     Emaj7
 And there we are

    F#                       B7                     G#m7 Gdim
And all I ever want to be is far from the eyes that ask  me
[Pre-Chorus]
B                G#m7         C#m7           A     F#dim
 In whose bed you gonna be and is it true you only see
[Chorus]
  Emaj7                  Ebm                      F#         E6

Desire as a self-figured creature who changes her mind
[Link]
             B           G#m9
It's perfect as it stands

            F#               Emaj7
So why then crush it in your perfect hands?
[Chorus]
  Emaj7                  Ebm                      F#         E6

[Verse]
   B           G#m9
So tell me you must have thought

                F#
It all out in advance

   B        G#m9
Or goodness, goodness knows why you'd

                F#
Throw it to the birds

             B                G#m9
You mock the good things, you play the heart strings,

                 F#
Play them one by one
[Bridge]
F#        Emaj7
 But there it is,

F#     Emaj7
 And there we are
