Chords
[Verse 1]
They A5say the price of love is a black hole
Where your friends were
Where your social life sits
D5Pulled into a chasm of family engagements
And trips to the garden centre
That is A5true enough if you choose it
Or it chooses you
I forget which
You could D5marry yourself to an orphan girl
And overcompensate on her birthday
Well I A5don't need koi carp swimming round my feet
And auburn-haired children blocking my path
As I D5run to the disabled bathroom
Topping off a 12-hour drinking spree
Well I A5don't need koi carp swimming round my feet
And auburn-haired children blocking my path
As I D5run to the disabled bathroom
Topping off a 12-hour drinking spree
[Verse 2]
A5 D5 Well they A5say the price of love is a lot of things
They say a lot
If you give them a chance
They will D5say it all
And loudly
Sometimes they will say it more than once
I'm A5reading you
Like a pamphlet
That I picked up
From an idiot
On a F5unicycle
In a town square
He is E5sad now
He was sadder there
I am A5reading you
Like a pamphlet
That I picked up
From an idiot
On a F5unicycle
In a town square
He is E5sad now
He was sadder there
Now I'm A5leading you by a candlesight
And it breaks my heart in F5two
You can kid yourself
That your E5dreams amount
To more than counting backwards from A5four
It's a dangerous thing
[Ambrosia]
Just F5buy the cream
Apply it to the scar
E5 And wait for emptiness
[Outro]
A5W-w-w-w-way down in the plastics
W-w-w-w-way down in the plugs
F5W-w-w-w-way down in the carpet
E5 A metaphor needs a better hold
A5W-w-w-w-way down in the plastics
W-w-w-w-way down in the plugs
F5W-w-w-w-way down in the carpet
E5 A metaphor needs a better hold
A A5rich kid stole the ball
The rich kids stole the ball
The rich kids stole the ball
The rich kids stole the ball
