Intro: F Dm Am C

Verse 1:
F             Dm
 We hereby conduct this post-mortem
Am                  C
 He was a hot house flower to my outdoorsmen
F                  Dm
 Our maladies were such, we could not cure them
Am                          C
 And so a touch that was my birth right became foreign

Chorus:
 F
 Come one come all
 C    G          F
 It’s happening again
         C        G       F
 The empathetic hunger descends

 We’ll tell no-one
 C     G          F
 'Cept all of our friends
             C G
 We must know how did it end?

Interlude: F  Dm  Am  C

Verse 2:
 F                      Dm
 We were blind to unforeseen circumstances
Am                  C
 We learn the right stеps to different dances
F                   Dm
 And fеll victim to interlopers glances
Am                C
 Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?
F
 Soon they’ll go home to their husbands
Dm
 Smug ’cause they know they can trust him
Am                                 C
 Then feverishly calling their cousins (Oh, oh)

Chorus:
 F             C   G
 Guess who we ran into at the shops?
 F             C    G
 Walking in circles like she was lost
F
 Didn’t you hear?
 C    G
 They called it all off
F
 One gasp and then
C G
  How did it end?

Interlude: Dm  G  Am  F

Bridge:
Dm                      G
 Say it once again with feeling how the death rattle
 Am                                  F
 Breathing, silenced as the soul was leaving
                      Dm
 The deflation of our dreaming
                       G
 Leaving me bereft and reeling
                      Am
 My beloved ghost and me
              F
 Sitting in a tree
         F
 d-Y-I-N-g

Chorus:
 C    G          F
 It’s happening again
C G          F
  How did it end?
C  G             F
 I can’t pretend like I understand
C G          F
  How did it end?
 F
 Come one come all
 C    G          F
 It’s happening again
         C         G          F
 The empathetic hunger descends

 We’ll tell no-one
 C     G          F
 'Cept all of our friends
                   C    G          F
 But I still don’t know how did it end?
