Yesterday I spent asleep
EbmDbEbm7
Woke up in my clothes in a dirty heap
EbmBbm
Spent the night trying to make a deadline
Ebm
Squeezing complicated lives into a simple headline
EbmBbm
I have your face here in an old Polaroid
EbmDbEbm7
Tidying the children’s clothes and toys
EbmBbm
You’re smiling back at me, I took the photo from the fridge
Ebm
Can’t remember what then we did
EbmBbm
I haven’t been with a woman, it feels like for years
EbmDbEbm7
Thought of you the whole time, your salty tears
EbmBbm
This shitty world sometimes produces a rose
EbmEbmEbm
The scent of it lingers and then it just goes

EbmBbm
The worst of us are a long drawn out confession
EbmEbm
The best of us are geniuses of compression
EbmBbm
You say you’re not going to leave the truth alone
EbmEbm
I’m here ‘cos I don’t want to go home
EbmBbm
Child drinking dirty water from the river bank
EbmEbm
Soldier brings oranges he got out from a tank
EbmDbEbm7
I’m waiting on the waiter, he’s taking a while to come
Ebm
Watching the sun go down on Lebanon

DbBbm
Now I’ve got a head like a lit cigarette
EbmEbm
Unholy clouds reflecting in a minaret
DbBbm
You’re so high above me, higher than everyone
Ebm
Where are you in the Cedars of Lebanon?
Db (guitar riff 1) Bbm
Choose your enemies carefully ‘cos they will define you
EbmEbm
Make them interesting ‘cos in some ways they will mind you
They’re not there in the beginning but when your story ends
Gonna last with you longer than your friend
