Chords
[Verse 1]
So F#mthoroughly convinced that the product of persistence
Was a Dlove that I'd been told of when I was just a kid
I was F#mwed to my misery in the hope that at the ceremony
DYouâd interject, but you never did
Now F#mseven years on, bitter and resentful
I Dstill contemplate what I did to deserve
The F#mglimpses of affection you used to distract me
DAs you were filing my teeth to the neF#mrve
[Verse 2]
D E I F#mknow you were the death of me, but still in spite of everything
I hope that you are finding sleep while I still lay aEwake
AlDthough my throat is burning now, it's still so quiet in the house
The emptiness you occupied is more than I can EtaF#mke
[Chorus]
D Tell me, Eare you aF#mshamed?
Cause I felt aloAneD and you watched as EI deF#mcayed
I Eslipped through your hands as I Dfaded
I've Etried to forF#mget
But your love will Amake a muDseum of me yet E
I F#mhope you know how long I've Ewaited
[Verse 3]
Though Dreservoirs of selfdisgust have swollen up inside my lungs
Pulmonary Oedema is no substitute for love that once lay its head upon my chest
A comfort cradled motionless, but I have come undone
My love is not enough
I know it's hard to watch your Elight fade from my Deyes, but darling for myE sake you've F#mgot to let it die
My weathered hands have dug this grave eEnough
It's time for us to bury our Dlove
[Chorus]
Tell me, Eare you aF#mshamed?
Cause I felt aloAneD and you watched as EI deF#mcayed
I Eslipped through your hands as I Dfaded
I've Etried to forF#mget
But your love will Amake a muDseum of me yet E
I F#mhope you know how long I've EwaiteDd
