See how quickly twisted it becomes

When the cat gut binds my ankles to your bedstead

Now you know more than your teacher

I see nothing but cool self-regard in your eyes

Em        B7                        Bm                     A7
Take a broken love song, keep it by your side
Em           B7       Bm                  A7 
Never be lonely, find a place to hide 
Em        B7            Bm             A7
By the west way, inside the scrubs
Em                           B7                Bm         A7                  Em 
How long must we wait, for they're killing us? Killing us 

Bm                F#m 
They are the loneliest

Still 

Em              B7                Bm              A7
Through my cell window, hear the loft boys sing
Em              B7    Bm          A7
Come on you R's, carried on the wind 
Em                                                       B7
Every morning, I'll be singing like a caged bird who might say 
Bm                                                     A7
John, Paul, George and Ringo help pass the hours away 
Em                 B7           Bm                 A
Free as a bird would I be, another dawn creeps up on me on me 
Em
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah 

Bm                F#m 
They are the loneliest
Bm                 F#m
They are the loneliest

They are the loneliest

They are the loneliest

Letters from faceless haters who'd love to see my swinging in my cell
A         B                                                Bm
Oh I never saw a man who looked like such a wistful eye, 
         E                                   G           A
as the fear of blue prisoners call the sky 

Bm                F#m 
They are the loneliest
Bm                 F#m
They are the loneliest
Bm                   F#m
They are the loneliest

Verse: E, Am, D
Are you still talking to
All of those dead film stars
Like you used to
And are you still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes
And perfect crimes
Like you used to love

And if you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you like you asked me to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you I know you told me to
But I really don't want to

Chorus: G, A, E
I still remember all of the things you said to me
You were the man and I was Calvary
And you said, ah you said
New love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows on... new love grows on trees
E, Am, D

Bridge: G#m, C#m, F#, B, C, B
That makes perfect nonsense to me
But the price of being free these days it’s ridiculous

Verse: E, Am, D
Are you still shaking out
All the dead wood from your bed love
Well times don't change and you're still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes for love divine
Oh no, you really don't have to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you
Oh I know you asked me to
But I really don't want to

Chorus: G, A, E
I still remember all of the things you said to me
You were the man and I was Calvary
And you said, ah you said
New love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows on... new love grows on trees
E, Am, D

C7(x32310)
when the cold wind now blows,

and the cold wind now blows in my heart
         EbM7(x11333)
