Ebm		    Bbm 
Yesterday I spent asleep 
Ebm 				  Db Ebm7 
Woke up in my clothes in a dirty heap 
Ebm 				  Bbm 
Spent the night trying to make a deadline 
Ebm  
Squeezing complicated lives into a simple headline 

Ebm		 		 Bbm 
I have your face here in an old Polaroid 
Ebm			Db Ebm7 
Tidying the children’s clothes and toys 
Ebm 					Bbm 
You’re smiling back at me, I took the photo from the fridge 
Ebm  
Can’t remember what then we did 

Ebm 			 	  Bbm 
I haven’t been with a woman, it feels like for years 
Ebm				Db Ebm7 
Thought of you the whole time, your salty tears 
Ebm  				Bbm 
This shitty world sometimes produces a rose 
Ebm			          Ebm  		 	Ebm 
The scent of it lingers and then it just goes

Ebm 					Bbm 
The worst of us are a long drawn out confession 
Ebm 					Ebm  
The best of us are geniuses of compression

You say you’re not going to leave the truth alone 
Ebm                                   	Ebm  
I’m here ‘cos I don’t want to go home 

Ebm					Bbm 
Child drinking dirty water from the river bank 
Ebm					Ebm  
Soldier brings oranges he got out from a tank 
Ebm						Db Ebm7 
I’m waiting on the waiter, he’s taking a while to come 
Ebm  
Watching the sun go down on Lebanon

Now I’ve got a head like a lit cigarette

Unholy clouds reflecting in a minaret

You’re so high above me, higher than everyone

Where are you in the Cedars of Lebanon?

Db (guitar riff 1)				Bbm 
Choose your enemies carefully ‘cos they will define you 
Ebm						   Ebm 
Make them interesting ‘cos in some ways they will mind you 

They’re not there in the beginning but when your story ends 

Gonna last with you longer than your friend
