EOnce upAon aB sigEn I readA a wBarniEng and itA saiBd E
'WhAen iBn RoEme don't feAed thBe liEons'
WhAat iBt meEant I can't hAazarBd a gueEss A B
But nBow I've leEarnt my lAessoBn I'm a bEetter pAersoBn
I'm fiElled up with hAigh hBopes and I'm fEed up with sAoft soBaps
LC#mong in the tooth and shBort on wisdom
F#mUp to here with the aBche of it
And if the maEtchmaker calls hC#mand in hand
With a catch of the dEay I'll rise to the bBait
But it'll still be mEore than a heart can take
MC#more than feeling great
EMore than a tongue can tBell
I'd nEeed to tAake leBave oEf my sAenseBs to geBt a moment's reEst A B
FEollowing in footstAeps B
FEootsure in faAncy BdresEs A B B
HC#mead in my hands I'm mBaking plans
HF#moovering up for the dBay
When the maEtchmaker calls hC#mand in hand
With the catch of the dEay I'll raise to the bBait
But it'll still be mEore then a heart can take
MC#more than feeling great
MEore than a tongue can tBell
Instrumental :
F# G#m B C# (2x)
And the iC#mtch to get rG#mich quick
Has nAever been so hBard to reach
With my hEands tied behAind Bmy baEck A B
SEhin deep in cemAent aBnd sEand A B B
Just like the anchor-mEan I broke loose
And crC#mashed to the sea bed
ClEutching the shortest stBraw
And if you threw me a liEne that's as smart as you tC#mhink
It wouldn't stop me siEnking down to cry
On what flBashed before my eEyes C#m E B
