[Verse]
D# A# Cm A#
So we're back here again. Tiptoeing round the edge of the end.
G# D# A# Cm
Wondering who'll be last to admit that we're finally over.
D# A# Cm A#
Turned 21 the day that we met. Terrible shoes, implausible dress.
G# D# A# Cm
It's funny how sad the funny things get as you grow older.
G# D# A#
Better or worse but what else can we do?
G# D# A#
When better or worse I am tethered to you.
G# D# A# Cm
If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling?
D# A#
I learnt the art of biting my tongue.
Cm A#
I tired of trying to guess what was wrong.
G# D# A# Cm
Both agreed on where we should go, but not how to get there.
D# A#
We tried and tried to loosen the knots.
Cm A#
Thinking once we're untangled we'll be better off.
G# D# A# Cm
But it's these failures and faults that hold us together.

G# D# A# Cm
If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling?
G# D# A#
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue.
G# D# A#
It's a beautiful knot that we just can't undo.
G# D# A#
Together we're one but apart tell me who are we fooling?
A#m G# G#m D# A#m G# G#m D#
Real love is hard love. It's all we have.
A#m G# G#m D# D#m G# A#
It's a break neck. Train wreck. It's all we have.
D# A#
So we're back here again.
Cm A# G# D# A#
Turning away from the edge of the end. Arm in arm.
