By Elvis Costello
INTRO:
Dm C G Dm C G
F G D
I would have waited all my life
D G A
Just to make love out of something other than spite
C G Gm A
But the beauty is the beast you're baiting
Dm G
Should really be worth the waiting
Em A
You do something ver - y special to
Em A
Mr. Average
Em B
Now the lamb lies with the lion
F A Dm C G Dm C G
He's just a lit - tle savage
F G D G A
And so you turn your back on me
D F#m Gm C G
And all the hot air that only echoes stale tobacco
F G D
Actions speak louder now than words
(By just a fraction)
D G A C
What's the use of saying I love you when I'm drinking to distraction
G Gm
We save our sanity
A F
By saying such and such
Db+
After all its been discussed
F G
You say you must be touched
(chorus)
