[Verse 1]
E5 D5
It's a sign of devotion
G5 A5
You made everybody else seem insane
E5 D5
You filled my head with your notions
G5 A5
You made everybody else seem so tame
E5 D5
In your bed I lay reeling
G5 A5
You made everybody else seem ashame
E5 D5
I knew from the way I was feeling
G5 A5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
E5 D5
I moved straight into your shoes
G5 A5
I took up your cause and answered your phone
E5 D5
I couldn't really imagine
G5 A5
What life was like when I was alone
E5 D5
Then I started to worry (then I started to worry)
G5 A5
I thought of our lives left on the shelf
E5 D5
Too much TV and curry
G5 A5
Too much time spent on ourselves
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
F#m
We were sitting in, waiting
D
And I told you my plan
B
You were far too busy writing
F G A
Rhymes that didn't scan
F#m
And you lent me your records
D
And I lent you an ear
B
Funny how it seems to me now
F G A
That you were never here
F G A
Never really here
[Verse 3]
E5 D5
In our bed I lay reeling
G5 A5
You made everybody else seem a shame
E5 D5
I knew from the way I was feeling
G5 A5
Nothing could ever be quite the same
E5 D5
It's a sign of devotion
G5 A5
You made everybody else seem so plain
E5 D5
Then it felt like going through the motions
G5 A5
First impressions never remain
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
F#m
We were sitting in, waiting
D
And you told me your plan
B
I was far too busy writing
F G A
Rhymes that didn't scan
F#m
Now I've sold all your records
D
Cause they give me the fear
B
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
