G D Em D

I ought to leave enough hot water

for your morning bath but I'd not thought, I

C Am

hate to hear you talk that way

C Am G D Em D

but I can't bring myself to say I'm sorry

G D Em D

G D Em D

the past is always knocking incessant

trying to break through into the present

C Am

we have to work to keep it out G D Em D

and I won't be the first to shout it's over

Am C Am C G D Em D

I used to wanna plant bombs at the last night of the proms

Am C Am C

but now you'll find me with the baby in the bathroom

Am C D

with that big shell listening to the sound of the sea

G G G G G D C

G D Em D

I steal a kiss from you in the supermarket

I walk you down the aisle, you fill my basket

C Am

and through it all the stick I take

C Am

is worth it for the love we make

Am C Am C G D Em D

I used to wanna plant bombs at the last night of the proms

Am C Am C

but now you'll find me with the baby in the bathroom

Am C D

with that big shell listening to the sound of the sea

G G G G G D C

the baby and me

G D Em D

I stayed in bed alone, uncertain

then I met you, you pulled the curtain

C Am

the sun came up, the trees began to sing and

C Am G D Em D

light shone in on everything, I love you

C Am

the sun came up, the trees began to sing and

C Am G D Em D

light shone in on everything, I love you
