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