Your old lover's lying in the gutter

D# F
Darkened night, splashing light
A# Gm
Soft and white and so polite
D# F
Let him in, beneath the rim
A# Gm
Beneath the skin, your next of kin

Cleansing fire, funeral pyre
A# Gm
Broken wire grown inside her
D# F
Secret hush, swollen rush
A# Gm D# Gm D#
It's soft and plush. It's so plush
