Song: The Lovers Are Losing
Album: Perfect Symmetry
Capo 1
[F] [C]
[F] [C] What's Up
[C]I dreamed I was drowning
[Am] In the river Thames
[G] I dreamed I had nothing at all
[F]Nothing but my own skin[C]
[Am]Slipped away from your [D]open hands
[Bb] Into [F]river
[Am]Saw your face looking [D]back at me
[Bb] I saw my past, and [F]I saw my future[C]
Chorus:
You take the pieces of the [F]dreams that you have
Cos you don't like the way they [C]seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them [F]out on the floor
You're full of hope as you be[C]gin rearranging
Put it all back to[Bb]gether
But any way you look at [F]this
Looks [C]like
The lovers are [G]losing
[C] I dreamed I was watching
[Am] The young lovers dance
[G] I reached out to touch your hair
But I was [F]watching from a distance[C]
[Am] We cling to love like a [D]skidding car
[Bb]Clings to a [F]corner
[Am] I tried to hold onto [D]what we are
[Bb]The more I squeeze, the [F]quicker we're [C]over
Chorus
[G]I dreamed I had nothing at all[C][G]
I dreamed I had nothing at all
You take the pieces of the [F]dreams that you have
Cos you don't like the way they [C]seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them [F]out on the floor
You're full of hope as you be[C]gin rearranging
Put it all back to[Bb]gether
But in the final reckon[F]ing
Looks [C]like
The lovers are [G]losing
