Listen to the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fVUV-3kio0

[Intro]
Dm - Dm Cm7 - B - Bb Bbm7 [x2]

[Verse 1]
Dm
When the brain is saying no, but the heart is saying yes
G
You don’t listen to your feelings
Dm Em
As you both stand there un-dressed
Dm
When gravity is pulling, at the flesh upon your bones
G
You take every chance your given
Dm
As you stand beneath your comb
Dm
Then you think about computers, and your favourite football team
Gm Dm
And you hope to keep your end up (hope you keep your end up)
E
to fulfil her every dream

[Chorus]
Fm
The moon is on your pillow
E
And her voice is like a song
Esus4
The words sound so fa-miliar
Gm
But you may have got them wrong
Bm Gm
It’s the love that we were born with, the love that made us cry
E Am Dm
I can only watch in wonder, at the world that passed me by

[Instrumental]
Am D7 - G - Bbm
Dm - Dm - G - Bbm G

[Verse 1]
Dm
When the cradle rocks so gently, and your friends stop coming round
Gm Bbm
You re-treat into the sofa, as the late nights wear you down
Dm
Now the music's in the background, as your hair is getting trimmed
Gm
On the salad and the sushi thinking
