Intro: G  D  C    (2x) 

G                           D      C 
Well we'll kiss for that's how it begins 
G                      D         C 
We'll embrace just to warm our skins 
Em                             D       C    G   C   G 
I'll think of her and you'll think of him 

G                             D              C 
And we'll talk to keep the silence from our ears 
G                                  D       C  
And we'll laugh because we're so close to tears 
Em                             D               C    G   C   G 
We're just lonely, you know, that's why we're here 

Em              C              G 
Cos you don't taste like you should 
Em                       C             D 
And you don't fit in my arms like she would 
Em             C             D 
Lying in the dark, it's understood 
             Em   C    D 
We are both lost 
                     G    C   G 
And we won't be found 

G                          D             C             
We will wake up with each other in our pores 
G                                         D         C 
You cover over white bits like I've not seen them before 
Em                           D           C 
We'll say goodbye and then we'll say no more 

Em                       C                      G 
Cause hearts won't buy love and nor will they sell 
Em                C            D 
And there is no love in this hotel 
Em                     C                D 
Though we're walking home we know too well 
              Em  C  D 
We are both lost 
              Em  C  D 
We are both lost 
                     Am 
And we won't be found 
Am 
She was my compass 
He was your map 
                               D 
We've come too far to be turning back 

G                      D      C 
And we'll sit on our single beds 
G                           D            C 
Nothing on our hearts and tears on our threads 
Em                       D        C 
For we know the last unicorn is dead
