Verse
; Chorus (E, F#, B)
VERSE 1
A E
Last of the men in hats hops off the coil
F#m D
And a final scene unfolds inside
A E
Deep in the rain of sparks behind his brow
F#M D
Is a part replayed from a perfect day
A E
Teaching her how to whistle like a boy
F#M D
Love's first blush
CHORUS 1
D E
Is this making sense?
D
What am I trying to say?
E
Early evening June
D
This room and a radio play
E
This I need to save
D
I choose my final thoughts today
E 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
E F#M D
But I came off, I came off pretty well, I came off pretty well
A E
Ran to ground, ran to ground, for a while there
F#m D
But I came off pretty well, and I came off pretty well
D E A
Ah ah ah ah
A
(Deep in a rain of sparks behind his brow)
D E 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
