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