The Lovers Are Losing

Intro 2x: C  G

What's up
G
I dreamed I was drowning
Em
In the river Thames
D
I dreamed I had nothing at all
C                       G
Nothing but my own skin

I dreamed I was drifting
Em
On the howling wind
D
I dreamed I had nothing at all
C                       G
Nothing but my own skin

Em                      A
Slipped away from your open hands
Fmaj7   C
Into river
Em                     A
Saw your face looking back at me
Fmaj7                          G
I saw my past, and I saw my future

G                            C
You take the pieces of the dreams 
that you have
                                 G
Cos you don't like the way they seem
 to be going
                               C
You cut them up and spread them out 
on the floor
                             G
You're full of hope as you begin 
rearranging
                   F
Put it all back together
                         C
But any way you look at this

G
I dreamed I was watching
Em
The young lovers dance
D
I reached out to touch your hair
             C               G
But I was watching from a distance

Em                         A
We cling to love like a skidding car
Fmaj7         C
Clings to a corner
Em                   A
I try to hold on to what we are
Fmaj7                      C     
The more I squeeze, the quicker 
   G
we alter

G                            C

The lovers are losing

D (hold the chord all the way 
through this part)
I dreamed I had nothing at all; 
Nothing but my own skin
(I dreamed I had nothing at all; 
Nothing but my own skin
I dreamed I had nothing at all; 
Nothing but my own skin)
I dreamed I had nothing at all; 
Nothing at all
