Em                 D C 
When you come back again 
          Em                      D   C 
Would you bring me something from the fridge? 
        Em                  D  C 
Heard a rumour that the end is near 
      Em               D   C 
but I just got comfortable here. 
 
D 
Sigh. 
Amaj7    D 
Let's be blunt. 
      Amaj7      D 
I'm a little distracted. 
Amaj7       D 
What do you want? 
 
Em            G 
Headaches and bad faith 
    Em            G 
are all that I've got. 
        Em            G 
First I misplaced the ending 
       C        Em 
then I lost the plot. 
 
Em                 D     C 
Out among the free-range sheep 
          Em                D     C 
While the big birds sharped their claws. 
      Em                     D   C 
For a time we stuck with the shepherd 
        Em               D  C 
but you wouldn't play Santa Claus. 
 
 
 
 
 
D 
Sigh. 
Amaj7    D 
Let's be blunt. 
Amaj7             D 
We're a little distracted. 
Amaj7       D 
What do you want? 
 
Em            G 
Once we could follow, 
Em        G 
now we cannot. 
          Em          G 
You would not fit our image, 
      C        Em 
so we lost the plot. 
 
Em            G 
Once we could hear you, 
        Em         G 
now our senses are shot. 
      Em            G 
We've forgotten our first love 
        C        Em 
We have lost the plot. 
C        Em 
Lost the plot. 
 
Interlude 
(Basically just repeatedly: Amaj7 D Gmaj7 C) 
 
 
G                      Em 
When I saw you for the first time 
                        G 
You were hanging with a thief 
                         Em 
And I knew my hands were dirty, 
 
and I dropped my gaze. 
G                   Em 
Then you said I was forgiven 
                         G 
and you welcomed me with laughter 
                 Em 
I was happy ever after 
 
I was counting the days 
                     D C 
when you'd come back again. 
 
We'll be waiting for you 
Em              D C 
When you comin' again? 
 
We'll be ready for you 
Em               D  C 
Maybe we'll wake up when... 
 
Maybe we'll wake up when 
Em            D C 
you come back again. 
D 
Lies. 
Amaj7    D 
Let's be blunt. 
        Amaj7     D 
We're a little unfaithful. 
Amaj7       D 
What do you want? 
 
Em            G 
Are you still listening? 
             Em        G 
'Cause we're obviously not. 
      Em            G 
We've forgotten our first love. 
        C        Em 
We have lost the plot. 
 
    Em                G 
And why are you still calling? 
    Em             G 
You forgave, we forgot. 
           Em         G 
We're such experts at stalling 
           C        Em 
that we've lost the plot 
C        Em      C        Em      C        Em 
lost the plot... lost the plot... lost the plot. 
 
Em                 D C      
When you come back again 
          Em                      D   C 
Would you bring me something from the fridge? 
        Em                  D  C 
Heard a rumour that the end is near 
      Em         D         C 
but I just got comfortable here.

These chords, especially the C and D, sound more like the CD when 
voiced like this. As for the Amaj7 and Gmaj7, it's close, but I'm 
pretty sure these aren't the exact chords or voicing used.
