Chords

[Verse 1]
   A       Amaj7     A7        F#7
I rest my case in a bed unmade

     Bm
The headboard strained

           E            Bm    Bb7/F   A
Under the weight of my memory of the day

     Amaj7
So crammed

         A7        F#7
Getting low on RAM

         Bm
Getting high on strife

  Bm
Stock is overflowing

        Dm
Do you wish that you could throw it in?
[Chorus]
  F#m    F
Why

        A     B7/F#
Do you like

       E      E7
To be mine?
[Verse 2]
            A     Amaj7
'Cause I'm late again

    A7   F#7
To realising

      Bm
The spiral turns

             E
So steadily down

         Bm        Bb7/F
There's no getting out

   A         Amaj7
Unless you quit

     A7     F#7
Zoom out a bit

    Bm
Uncross your eyes

    Bm
It ruins the illusion

          Dm
But it's well worth the losing
[Chorus]
  F#m    F
Why

        A     B7/F#
Do you like

           E    E7
To still try?
[Instrumental] | E | E | E | E | | E | E | E | E | [Verse 3]
    A        Amaj7
My love, my dear

          A7       F#7
It's been quite a year

            Bm
It's been quiet and loud

              E
Laughter and tears

 Bm          Bb7/F
Courage and fear

       A       Amaj7
But I can't allow

      A7        F#7
This furrowed brow

           Bm
And these borrowed blues

                E        Bm       Bb7/F
To keep washing out the delicate sounds

    A    Amaj7    A7    F#7    Bm
Of you
[Outro]
   Bm                         Dm                A
So if you want to whisper I swear I want to listen
