[Intro] G D Em7 D Em7 D Em7 Dmaj7 [Verse 1]
Em                              Dmaj7
The sheets won't need changing everyday

Em                              Dmaj7
The freezer supply should last a year

      F#m           Bm                    D
Those hidden little points that you're away

Em                A                     D
Nothing much has changed since you were here
[Pre Chorus]
N.C       Em            Dmaj7
Our paths will cross some day

Em                      Dmaj7
Our paths will cross some day

Em               C           Em      C
While you're out jogging and I'm sat snogging

     Em        C        A
Some fool on a lakeside bench
[Chorus]
                                        G
And when she calls I hope it's you that dials

                                     D   
I hope it's you that feels this love inside

                                          Em
And when I touch her I hope it's you that smiles

                                   D
And when I die I hope it's you I'm beside

                                     G
To die with her would be a worthless lie

                                     D
To die with her would be a worthless die

                                 Em
To die together would be worth a try

                                 D
To die together would be worth a try
Em7 D Em7 Dmaj7 [Verse 2]
Em                                   Dmaj7
The family pack seems larger than it should

Em                                      Dmaj7
Two for one's no good when there's just one

    F#m     Bm                D
I'd raise a bigger smile if I could

Em           A          D
But me minus you equals none
[Pre Chorus]
NC             Em         Dmaj7
Our paths will cross some day

Em                        Dmaj7
Our paths will cross some day

     Em         C           Em      C
When you're out fishing and I'm sat wishing

Em        C          A
You , You instead of him

NC             Em         Dmaj7
Our paths will cross some day

Em                        Dmaj7
Our paths will cross some day

     Em         C              Em        C
When you're out exercising and I'm there prising

    Em            C      A
The pants of I my latest sin
[Chorus]
                                      G
And when we kiss she knows it's you I kiss

                                      D
'Cause when we kiss I always start to cry

                                    G
You just can't cover up these lying lips

                               D
When I die I hope it's you I'm beside

                                     G
To die with her would be a worthless lie

                                     D
To die with her would be a worthless die

                                 Em
To die together would be worth a try

                                 D
To die together would be worth a try
[Verse 3]
Em                                  Dmaj7
An ambulance flashed past me in the street

Em                               Dmaj7
Just yards from where we were to meet

      F#m         Bm            D
I was half hoping you were dead meat

Em          A                      D
That it was you that was under the sheet
[Verse 4]
           Em                     Dmaj7
And as you lay there alone in the ward

Em                               Dmaj7
Fumbling for the keys to death's door

Em                                Dmaj7
At least I'd have summoned up the nerve

Em                   C
To whisper you these words

D        Bm       D
Finally! Quietly! Actually!

C
I love you!
