E C#m G#m B
[Primera Parte]
E C#m
We hereby conduct this post-mortem
G#m B
He was a hot house flower to my outdoorsmen
E C#m
Our maladies were such, we could not cure them
G#m B
And so a touch that was my birth right became foreign
[Estribillo]
A E
Come one come all
B C#m A
It’s happening again
E B C#m
The empathetic hunger descends
A E
We’ll tell no-one
B C#m A
'Cept all of our friends
E B E
We must know how did it end?
( E C#m G#m B )
[Segunda Parte]
E C#m
We were blind to unforeseen circumstances
G#m B
We learn the right stеps to different dances
E C#m
And fеll victim to interlopers glances
G#m B
Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?
E
Soon they’ll go home to their husbands
C#m
Smug ’cause they know they can trust him
G#m B
Then feverishly calling their cousins (Oh, oh)
[Estribillo]
A E B C#m
Guess who we ran into at the shops?
A E B C#m B A
Walking in circles like she was lost
A E B C#m B A
Didn’t you hear? They called it all off
A E B
One gasp and then
B
How did it end?
( E C#m G#m B )
[Puente]
A B
Say it once again with feeling how the death rattle
C#m E
Breathing, silenced as the soul was leaving
A
The deflation of our dreaming
B
Leaving me bereft and reeling
C#m
My beloved ghost and me
E
Sitting in a tree
A E
D-y-i-n-g
[Estribillo]
B C#m A E
It’s happening again
B C#m B A E
How did it end?
B C#m A E B
I can’t pretend like I understand
B A
How did it end?
A E
Come one come all
B C#m Bm A
It’s happening again
E B C#m B
The empathetic hunger descends
A E B
We’ll tell no-one
C#m B A
'Cept all of our friends
A E B E
But I still don’t know how did it end?
