Love will tear us apart    (video)

 

    A - D - G - A (2x)

 

                 A                         - D                G                       - A

1. When routine bites hard         and ambitions are low,

                A                             - D             G                          - A

    and resentment rides high,        but emotions won’t grow,

                         A                        - D              G                     -  A

    and we’re changing our ways,      taking different roads.

 

         A     D                           G       A

And love, love will tear us apart again. (2x)          +  A - D - G - A

 

                        A                       - D             G                         - A

2. Why is the bedroom so cold,      turn away on your side,

               A                  - D               G                       - A

    is my timing at fault      and respect runs so dry.

                        A                     - D                     G                            A

    Yet there’s still this appeal,       that we’ve kept through all our lives.

 

         A     D                           G      A

And love, love will tear us apart again.  (2x)

 

           A

+  Resentment rides high, but emotions won’t grow,

 

    and we’re changing our ways, taking different roads. 

 

+  A - D - G - A (2x)

 

                  A                              - D             G                       - A

3. Do you cry out in your sleep,       all my failings exposed,

                    A                          - D                  G                         - A

    there’s a taste in my mouth        as desperation takes hold.

                 A                          - D                     G                         - A

    yet it’s something so pure,       I just can’t function no more.

 

+  CHORUS (4x)       +  A ~ ~        +  A - D - G - A (2x)   +  A ~ ~ ....
