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

F C G Am
If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling?
F C G
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue.
F C G
It's a beautiful knot that we just can't undo.
F C G
Together we're one but apart tell me who are we fooling?
Gm F Fm C Gm F Fm C
Real love is hard love. It's all we have.

It's a break neck. Train wreck. It's all we have.

Turning away from the edge of the end. Arm in arm.
