Let's try to make the most of this
A#m G# F# C#
I'll ask this once: my last request
A#m G# F# C#
I count the times that you recede
A#m G# F# A#m
I slip through hands and kiss your teeth
G# C# A#m Fm
Mend your words down side to side
G# C# A#m Fm
Stutter step, defeat revised
A#m G# F# C# (X2)
A#m G# F# C#
When your words spill out in rust
A#m G# F# C#
They billow out and rise in dust
A#m G# F# C#
So start ahead now while you can
A#m G# F# A#m
And someone will take you with silver hands
G# C# A#m Fm
Waltz in form on down the aisle
G# C# A#m Fm
With perfect pace and in single file
A#m G# F# C# (X2)
A#m G# F# C#
With patterned plans to mend your streets
A#m G# F# C#
They rise in form beneath your feet
A#m G# F# C#
Our darkest days are gone for now
A#m G# F# C#
We'll adorn our suits and our best gowns
