Fair

[Intro]
Cadd9

[Verse 1]
Cadd9
     It's what my heart just yearns to say in ways that
can't be said
It's what my rotting bones will sing when the rest of me is
F6sus2
dead
It's what's engraved upon my heart in letters deeply worn
Today I somehow understand the reason I was born
              Cadd9
'Cause outwardly,  he says,
I try so hard to make you laugh at me
And she, she does,
she laughs as though she's not heard the joke ten thousand
        F6sus2
times before
And he adores her,
he watches her get dressed as though she's hurtling through
time
Oh, darling, please be mine

[Verse 2]
         Cadd9
She promises  to fight them all when it all becomes too
much
And he, he curses at the world for leaving him behind,
                        F6sus2
and he's falling out of touch
And she is stronger than he's ever been,
he knows
She brushes her hand through his hair,
he's got so much fucking hair
                 Amadd11                             F6sus2
And he holds her close  just to keep the world at bay
                 Amadd11
And when they're sure   no one can hear them
       F6sus2
She'll turn  to him and say,
she'll turn to him and say

[Chorus]
Cadd9
     It's not fair,
                        F6sus2
it's not fair how much I      love you
         Amadd11
It's not fair,  'cause you make me laugh when I'm actually
               F6sus2
really fucking cross at you for something
And he'll say
Cadd9
     Oh, how, oh, how unreasonable
F6sus2                    Amadd11
      How unreasonably in love   I am with everything you
do
                               F6sus2
I spend my days so close to you      'cause if I'm standing
here,
                             Cadd9
maybe everyone will think I'm     alright

[Verse 2]
Cadd9
     I've seen enough, he says,
I know exactly what I want
And it's this life that we've created
                                    F6sus2
Inundated with the fated thought of you   
And if you asked me to, if you asked me,
I would lose it all
Like petals in a storm
                                      Cadd9
'Cause darling I was born to press my head between your
shoulder blades
At night when light is fading
Just to let you know I'm old,
waylaid and feels like I am wading
     F6sus2
Into carpet burns and carousels
Christ, you'll be the death of me
And calm throughout his melodrama,
she will turn and say
                 Amadd11
Dear heart, it's me,    it's me
You don't need to pretend to be someone you're not
F6sus2
      'Cause it's not like I've never heard you fart and
snore
             Amadd11
And for some godforsaken reason
I'm still here, love,
                            F6sus2
like I've always been before
And he'll say

[Chorus]
Cadd9
     It's not fair,
                        F6sus2
it's not fair how much I      love you
         Amadd11
It's not fair   'cause you make me weep when I'm just tryna
                F6sus2
watch The Office      with my yoghurt
And she'll say
Cadd9                         F6sus2
     Oh how, oh how unreasonable    
                    Amadd11
How unreasonably in love   I am with everything you do
                                  F6sus2
I'll spend my days so close to you      'cause if I'm
standing here
                             Cadd9    F6sus2 Amadd11 F6sus2 Cadd9
Maybe everyone will think I'm     cool

[Verse 3]
Cadd9
     How unfair, how unfair,
they'll sing as they dance across the darling rooftop wreck
      F6sus2
He'll trip  and she'll pretend not to have seen
Burying her head into his chest and clinging to the moment
               Amadd11
Where have you been?  she'll whisper
                                 F6sus2
I've waited oh so long for you to      come
           Amadd11
And as the stars  above them hum and hear them
      F6sus2
He'll turn  to her and say,
That's what she said

[Chorus]
Cadd9
     It's not fair,
                           F6sus2
oh it's not fair how much I      love you
         Amadd11
It's not fair   'cause you make me ache,
you bastard
F6sus2
      And he'll say
Cadd9                         F6sus2
     Oh how, oh how unreasonable    
                    Amadd11
How unreasonably in love   I am with everything you do
                                  F6sus2
I'll spend my days so close to you      'cause if I'm stood
here
Then I'm stood here
And I'll stand here
I'll stand here with you

[Outro]
Cadd9
