Verse
; Chorus (E, F#, B)
VERSE 1
A# F
Last of the men in hats hops off the coil
Gm D#
And a final scene unfolds inside
A# F
Deep in the rain of sparks behind his brow
GM D#
Is a part replayed from a perfect day
A# F
Teaching her how to whistle like a boy
GM D#
Love's first blush
CHORUS 1
D# F
Is this making sense?
D#
What am I trying to say?
F
Early evening June
D#
This room and a radio play
F
This I need to save
D#
I choose my final thoughts today
F A#
Switching off with you
VERSE 2
All the clocks give in
And the traffic fades
And the insects like, like a neon choir
The instant fizz
Connection made
And the curtains sigh
In time
With you
CHORUS 2
You, the only sense the world has ever made
Early evening June
This room and a radio play
This I need to save
I choose my final scene today
Switching off
BRIDGE
A#
Ran to ground, ran to ground
F GM D#
But I came off, I came off pretty well, I came off pretty well
A# F
Ran to ground, ran to ground, for a while there
Gm D#
But I came off pretty well, and I came off pretty well
D# F A#
Ah ah ah ah
A#
(Deep in a rain of sparks behind his brow)
D# F A#
Ah ah ah ah
CHORUS 3
You, the only sense the world has ever made
This I need to save
G# simple trinket locked away
I choose my final scene today
Switching off with you
