[Verse 1]
B5 A5
It's a sign of devotion
D5 E5
You made everybody else seem insane
B5 A5
You filled my head with your notions
D5 E5
You made everybody else seem so tame
B5 A5
In your bed I lay reeling
D5 E5
You made everybody else seem ashame
B5 A5
I knew from the way I was feeling
D5 E5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
B5 A5
I moved straight into your shoes
D5 E5
I took up your cause and answered your phone
B5 A5
I couldn't really imagine
D5 E5
What life was like when I was alone
B5 A5
Then I started to worry (then I started to worry)
D5 E5
I thought of our lives left on the shelf
B5 A5
Too much TV and curry
D5 E5
Too much time spent on ourselves
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
C#m
We were sitting in, waiting
A
And I told you my plan
F#
You were far too busy writing
C D E
Rhymes that didn't scan
C#m
And you lent me your records
A
And I lent you an ear
F#
Funny how it seems to me now
C D E
That you were never here
C D E
Never really here
[Verse 3]
B5 A5
In our bed I lay reeling
D5 E5
You made everybody else seem a shame
B5 A5
I knew from the way I was feeling
D5 E5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
B5 A5
It's a sign of devotion
D5 E5
You made everybody else seem so plain
B5 A5
Then it felt like going through the motions
D5 E5
First impressions never remain
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
C#m
We were sitting in, waiting
A
And you told me your plan
F#
I was far too busy writing
C D E
Rhymes that didn't scan
C#m
Now I've sold all your records
A
Cause they give me the fear
F#
Funny how it seems to me now
C D E
That you were never here
C D E
Never really here
C D E
Never really here
