Intro: Dm Gm A Dm Gm You look like I need a drink he winked as he slipped from my grasp to the bar A And you are? Dm He said me? -me- Little me? -little me- Gm He called from the brink of the day -He called from the brink of the day- A He said ´Hey darling hey, hey darling hey´ I’m the hardest goodbye that you’ll ever have to say Verse 1: Dm You don’t know it yet, but I’m the cupid of things C That you just didn’t get, that you struggled to say Bb I’m the saint of the paint that was left in the pot A I’m your angel ellipsis, your devil of dots Dm Every time that you fumble, I’m the laugh from the back C When you think about him, my wings start to flap Bb When you make a mistake, my feet lift from the floor A And when you lie there awake every night love, I soar Pre-Chorus: Dm I promise you I’ll be better C I promise you I’ll try Bb But like rubbing wine stains into rugs it’s my curse A To try and make it right, but by trying make it worse Dm I’m the heartbreak that aches far too much to be shunned C All those letters unsent and that garden ungrown Bb I’m the captain of courage you’ve eternally lacked A I’m the Jesus of wishing to Christ he’ll come back Chorus: Dm Bb Because Farewell Wanderlust, you’ve been oh so kind Gm A You brought me to this party but you left me here behind Dm Bb So long to the person you begged me to be Gm Gm She’s down. She’s dead A Instead what is left but this old satin dress A and the mess that you left when you told me I wasn’t right in the head Post-Chorus: Dm ´You alright?´ Gm Asked the boys from beyond A You gave us such a fright Gm We’d hate to see your mascara drip into your pint Dm Gm Might you allow me to slip into something more comfortable then? A Be our guest. With hoik of her bra, she waved to the bar and she slipped into the night Verse 2: Dm Come devil come, she sang, call out my name C Let’s take this outside cos we’re one and the same Bb Our gods have abandoned us, left us, instead A Take up arms, take my hand, let us waltz for the dead Dm I’m the face that stares back when the screen goes to black C When your mum says ‘you look healthy’ but you know she means you got fat Bb I’m the tales that the guests will applaud and believe A I’m the child that you just didn’t have time to conceive Pre-Chorus: Dm I promise you I’m not broken C I promise you there’s more Bb A More to come, more to reach for, more to hurl at the door Dm Goodbye to all my darkness, there’s nothing here but light C Adieu to all the faceless things that sleep with me at night Bb This here is not make up, it’s a porcelain tomb A -nc- And this here is not singing, I’m just screaming in tune Chorus: Dm Bb Because Farewell Wanderlust, you’ve been ever so kind Gm A You brought me through this darkness but you left me here behind Dm Bb And so long to the person you begged me to be Gm Gm He’s down. He’s dead A Now take a good long look at what you’ve done to me? Instrumental: Dm Bb C A Gm Dm Outro: Gm Gm S/He’s down, S/He’s dead A A S/He’s gone, S/He’s lost Gm Gm S/He’s flown, S/he’s fled A Dm Now take a good long look at what you've all done to me
