Verse 1:

G           C        GOur perfect love has died

                C         GWe've tried and tried and tried
                D          GNow Its time to face up to it

Verse 2:
G         C        GOne thing binds us still
                      D      GAnd that's a chain no-one can see
              C       GTo which you hold the key
                 D          GHere's the lock, Don't hold back

Chorus:
CThe other day I found my wedding ring
                        G         DI'd clean forgot that I lost that thing
G                   C     GThe hurts here, The goods gone
                     D       GI don't know why you keep me on

G             C        GDesire's what made us fight
                D        GAll those times into the night
              C           GLord how we'd scratch and bite
                     D       GNow we don't even do that no more

CI'm not trying to buck the blame
             G             DWe both must shoulder that shame

CEvery time, I try to picture your face

CTell me, are you blind and deaf

G                   C     GBut hurt strong, And good gone
