[Verse 1]
A5 G5
It's a sign of devotion
C5 D5
You made everybody else seem insane
A5 G5
You filled my head with your notions
C5 D5
You made everybody else seem so tame
A5 G5
In your bed I lay reeling
C5 D5
You made everybody else seem ashame
A5 G5
I knew from the way I was feeling
C5 D5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A5 G5
I moved straight into your shoes
C5 D5
I took up your cause and answered your phone
A5 G5
I couldn't really imagine
C5 D5
What life was like when I was alone
A5 G5
Then I started to worry (then I started to worry)
C5 D5
I thought of our lives left on the shelf
A5 G5
Too much TV and curry
C5 D5
Too much time spent on ourselves
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Bm
We were sitting in, waiting
G
And I told you my plan
E
You were far too busy writing
A# C D
Rhymes that didn't scan
Bm
And you lent me your records
G
And I lent you an ear
E
Funny how it seems to me now
A# C D
That you were never here
A# C D
Never really here
[Verse 3]
A5 G5
In our bed I lay reeling
C5 D5
You made everybody else seem a shame
A5 G5
I knew from the way I was feeling
C5 D5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
A5 G5
It's a sign of devotion
C5 D5
You made everybody else seem so plain
A5 G5
Then it felt like going through the motions
C5 D5
First impressions never remain
[Instrumental]

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