[Verse 1]
F5 D#5
It's a sign of devotion
G#5 A#5
You made everybody else seem insane
F5 D#5
You filled my head with your notions
G#5 A#5
You made everybody else seem so tame
F5 D#5
In your bed I lay reeling
G#5 A#5
You made everybody else seem ashame
F5 D#5
I knew from the way I was feeling
G#5 A#5
Nothing could ever be quite the same

[Verse 2]
F5 D#5
I moved straight into your shoes
G#5 A#5
I took up your cause and answered your phone
F5 D#5
I couldn't really imagine
G#5 A#5
What life was like when I was alone
F5 D#5
Then I started to worry (then I started to worry)
G#5 A#5
I thought of our lives left on the shelf
F5 D#5
Too much TV and curry
G#5 A#5
Too much time spent on ourselves
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Gm
We were sitting in, waiting
D#
And I told you my plan
C
You were far too busy writing
F# G# A#
Rhymes that didn't scan
Gm
And you lent me your records
D#
And I lent you an ear
C
Funny how it seems to me now
F# G# A#
That you were never here
F# G# A#
Never really here
[Verse 3]
F5 D#5
In our bed I lay reeling
G#5 A#5
You made everybody else seem a shame

I knew from the way I was feeling
G#5 A#5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
F5 D#5
It's a sign of devotion
G#5 A#5
You made everybody else seem so plain
F5 D#5
Then it felt like going through the motions
G#5 A#5
First impressions never remain

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