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

E B F#

E B F#
When better or worse I am tethered to you.
E B F# G#m
If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling?
E B F#
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue.
E B F#
It's a beautiful knot that we just can't undo.
E B F#
Together we're one but apart tell me who are we fooling?
F#m E Em B F#m E Em B
Real love is hard love. It's all we have.
F#m E Em B Bm E F#
It's a break neck. Train wreck. It's all we have.
B F#
So we're back here again.
G#m F# E B F#
Turning away from the edge of the end. Arm in arm.
