Would you vow today to pay tomorrow
Am B
The fuck off big debt I owe to sorrow...

C#(m) B C#(m) B C#(m) B
Well you sent for me; I came knock knock knocking upon deaths’ door,

You Ignore, Adore, and Magrew me; leave me washed up begging for more,

Second verse
C#(m) B C#(m) B C#(m) B
Oh you dull A’ Rebour me, the sun was setting on a distant shore,
C#(m) B C#(M) B C#(m) B
You were in the mirror bawling, if you want it so much you can have it all,
You said you cared for me, why can’t you see, you’d leave me be,
(He’s too polite to say) I’m too polite to say - - - Fuck off!
I defy you all; I know ten times as much as ten times you all, that’s still nothing at
all,
It was a surprise to us all; what was once nothing at all is still nothing at a-a-all.

I understood, what I never understood before,
C#m B C#m B
Your love gave me so much more,
C#m B C#m B
Now we’re free of them, we can be free again

To save my soul and protect me from sorrow (I know I know)

You sent for me
I was knock knock knocking on death's door
You ignore, adore, a'rebour me
You leave me washed up begging for more
If you really cared for me,
Ah you'd let me be
You'd set me free
But what you robbed me of is my...
Oh is my liberty
The curtain was calling
You were there blewn away and a'rebour
In the mirror bawling
If you want it so much you are gonna have it all
Ah if you really cared for me
Christ knows you'd let me be
You'd set me free
I'm too polite to say...
I defy you all
You know twice as much as nothing at all
It's still nothing at all
I can defy us all
Tides are now turned and hammered it all
Hammered it all (oh, ohhhh, ohhh)
Ah, no, ah no, ah no...
I've been running round this world too much, girl
Pretending not to see
What's thrilling me, is killing me
Oh no, I think I understand
What I misunderstood before
How your love gives me so much more
I am free again, I can see again
But if I should fall
Would you vow today to pay tomorrow
The fucked off big debt I owe to sorrow
Ah, oh, sorrow, sorrow
Ah, oh, sorrow
Ah, no, ah no, ah no
