[Verse 1]
A            Bm        A      D
Do you still go to the magpie store 
         A           Bm
with the vintage fur coats 
    A               D
and jewellery-laden drawers? 
A            Bm      A               D
Do you still talk in hieroglyphs and wit 
     A            Bm
from books you’ve read 
    A             D
and films full of pith? 


[Pre-Chorus 1]
G                                F#m
Christ, can we just have a conversation 
      G                        F#m
where money and ambition fall away? 
          C#m                              B
There’s a garden full of sweet pea and carnations. 
      C#m                        B        F#
We’ll lie out on the grass there someday, someday. 


[Chorus]
G#m Em  B
My—y-y, Mrs Dalloway 
G#m Em  B
My-y-y, Mrs Dalloway 
G#m       C#m      F#
sketching women in summertime cafes, 
Em                 B
so reluctant to go home. 


[Verse 2]
A            Bm         A             D
Do you still cry as you pull into the drive, 
          A            Bm
thinking ‘God, is this it -- 
        A             D
What it means to be alive?’ 
A            Bm          A               D
Do you still paint every Sunday when you wake? 
     A               Bm
I recall you used to point out 
      A                 D
every subtle flawed mistake. 


[Pre-Chorus 2]
G                                      F#m
I still don’t know the names of constellations 
G                                F#m
or the true circumference of the Earth, 
C#m                                  B
but Christ, can we just have a conversation 
C#m                                    B              F#
where you are self-endowed with silver worth?  Silver worth?


[Chorus]
G#m Em  B
My—y-y, Mrs Dalloway 
G#m Em  B
My-y-y, Mrs Dalloway 
G#m       C#m      F#
sketching women in summertime cafes, 
Em                 B
so reluctant to go home
