Intro: Em 

Em             C 
He watched the shadows 
       D             G 
On the walls of his room 
        Em           C          D  
                                 (use your pinkie to tap on the third fret of first string) 
And the silence will speak too soon 
    Em          C 
And he held her tightly 
   D              G 
So tight he could tell 
Em          C          D 
He knew the feeling so well 


Em                            C 
He said "Pretty baby will you marry me?" 
G                                 B7 
She said "You'd look shit upon my family tree" 
    Em                           C                 G           B7         
And that's when he realised he'd have to start again 


Em                                    C 
And just when you think you've got it figured out 
G                                   B7 
They light seven candles and you're blowing them out 
Em                                    C                 G              B7 
You know that you're going to have to light them all again  



Em      C           D          G 
You see her turning night into day 
        Em         C        D  
And the broken television display 
   Em            C 
And I know you're hurting 
   D              G 
But tonight I can pray 
Em                C             D 
Cos you've got to think for yourself 

D             G 
Lie down everyone 
           B7                    Em 
Close your eyes and look for the sun 
     D                          G 
Even they don't know where it's gone 
    Em         C             D              G 
Reminiscing of days when you knew that you belong 
   

Em                            C 
He said "Pretty baby will you marry me?" 
G                                 B7 
She said "You'd look shit upon my family tree" 
    Em                           C                 G           B7         
And that's when he realised he'd have to start again 


Em                                    C 
And just when you think you've got it figured out 
G                                   B7 
They light seven candles and you're blowing them out 
Em                                    C                 G              B7 
You know that you're going to have to light them all again  

Em
