C               E7                         Am
All the young monogamists
Am                      Em                 F
Are walking through the park
F            C                             G
Each of them protagonists
G                                          C
In stories they won't start
C             E7                           Am
You and I, we smile at them
Am                  Em                     F
We've seen it all before
F            C                             G
Older now, and wiser when
G
We both know what's in store


Break: C  E7  Am  Em  F  G  C


C              E7                          Am
As they gaze into the eyes
Am            Em                           F
Of the one they love
F              C                           G
They can feel inside of them
G                                          C
That this is not enough
C                 E7                       Am
Some of them will just grow tired
Am            Em                           F
Some of them will flee
F              C                           G
Some of them will sleep around
G
Just like you and me

Break: C  E7  Am  Em  F  G  C

C            E7                            Am
You and I, we settled for
Am               Em                        F
Whatever'd come along
F                     C                    G
And thought that lies were just like love
G                                          C
When put into a song
C             E7                           Am
How could we, the cynical,
Am                     Em                  F
Who've been around the block
F           C                              G
Ever trust another soul?
G                                          C
And who of us should talk?
C                 E7                       Am
But here we are, monogamists
Am                  Em                     F
A-swearing it will last
F                C                         G
I know it seems ridiculous
G
Considering our pasts
    C E7 Am Em  F  G       C
But I will al-ways be true to you
    C E7 Am Em  F  G       C
Yes I will al-ways be true to you.
