-INTRO-
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
D RIFF 1
And I can fuck up anything, anything
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
It was a wonderful life when we were together
D RIFF 1 A5~
And now I've fucked up every God damn thing
-VERSE-
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
Amelie lied to me
D RIFF 1
This was supposed to be easy
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1 D RIFF 1
I found the one damn person to help me fall asleep in the night
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
Sleeping gets tiring
D RIFF 1
And dark reminds me of dying
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
And as long as this feeble heart is still beating
D RIFF 2
You will find me rushing through all the rooms
A5 RIFF
Switching on all the lights
-PRE CHORUS-
F# RIFF B RIFF 2
The problem with falling in love in late night bars
G RIFF 2
Is that there's always more nights, there's always more bars
F# RIFF B RIFF 2
The problem with showing your lover your scars
G RIFF 3 A RIFF
Is that everybody's lover is covered in scars
-CHORUS-
So give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
And I can fuck up anything, anything
It was a wonderful life when we were together
And now I've fucked up every
-VERSE-
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
Things got fractious
D RIFF 1
And I felt faithless
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1 D RIFF 1
At that moment just before the dawn when everything falls apart
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
But, baby, I didn't mean it
D RIFF 1
For things to get desparate
B RIFF 1 G RIFF 1
I let down my guard, let slip the rudder
D RIFF 1
Now we're drifting in the curent away from one another
-CHORUS-
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
And I can fuck up anything, anything
It was a wonderful life when we were together
And now I've fucked up everything
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
And I can fuck up anything, anything
It was a wonderful life when we were together
And now I've fucked up every little God damn thing
Every little God damn thing
Every little God damn thing
G Bm~
Every little God damn thing
-BRIDGE-
And I've been skirting round the rim
Of doing something brave
Of not just standing but jumping in
Of making circles into squares
Of laying down the bare facts
Like a burden I can't bear
And I can almost find the words
But I can see the way
You fold your hands speak my name like
B_ C#_ D_ E_
A curse upon your pretty lips
B_ C#_ D_ E_. D* RIFF
The pressured white behind your finger tips
Bm* RIFF
D/A* RIFF
Gm* RIFF
D* RIFF
-OUTRO-
Bm* RIFF D/A* RIFF
And when you see me for all that I am
Gm* RIFF D* RIFF
I couldn't make mistakes that make a difference anymore
Bm* RIFF D/A* RIFF
I throw myself down on my knees in your hands
Beg you for forgiveness for my fuck-ups and my faults
Maybe you'd relent, release some hope for our forever
Lift up your precious hands and then bring yours and mine together
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
D/A* Gm*~ Gm*~ Gm*~
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
