Carl Barat - Irony Of Love Chords & Tabs

Pretty easy, Am,F,C and G all the way through. 


This is the song I never wrote for you
I know I said I would
Couldn't bring myself to start it then
But maybe now I should

I didn't need to write it then
When I was by your side
That's the irony of love, my dear
I never even tried

It begins with how I fell for you
Saw myself in your eyes
I should have known how that would lead
To my own sweet demise

Well they said
He's gonna get his fucking head kicked in
He's gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Darling
Oh darling

This is the song I never wrote for you
I know I said I would
It might have turned out differently
If things had worked out good
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/carl_barat/irony_of_love_crd.html ]
By your side the music rose
My heart would leap and bound
And the chilling fear that maybe I
Could lose what I had found

When the hate and hurt and poisoned tongues
Rang out across the town
And then I guess the music stopped
When you were sleeping round

He's gonna get his fucking head kicked in
He's gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Darling
Oh darling

This is the song I never wrote for you
I know I said I would
It makes no sense to start it now
It won't do any good

Without them now but in my ears
A hangover subsides
You know I could have married you
I suppose we never tried

Not gonna get my fucking head kicked in
Not gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Darling
Oh darling

Not gonna get my fucking head kicked in
Not gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Darling
Oh darling
