Slow Club - Because Were Dead

       F

I could say

       C

That I do

       F

But I don't

            Bb               C

You could wrap a million candles 

 F       Dm       Bb            C         F 

Into a torch and hope that it stears you home



            F        C           F

You could cut all the telephone wires

     F           C               F

And hope that nobody does get through

    Bb                C

I might not have the power 

 F          Dm

Of telepathy 

        Bb       C            F    

But, I'm gonna be contacting you



           F           C           F 

Because i borrowed a book that I saw

      F      C                F      

Was planted deep inside your bag

    Bb         C 

It gave me an excuse

    F         Dm 

To see you again

        Bb      C

But I'm not a theif

              F 

I'll give it back



 F         C     F 

Don't you ever wonder

       F      C       F

Who's living in that house

     Bb             C

It's too small for people

F        Dm

We all said

              Bb             C                  F 

But there's people in the floorboards said the mouse



        F              C              F

And I showed you the things that I'd made

      F               C               F

You didn't think that they were too great

         Bb             C

But I'm glad that you thought of it

  F                Dm

Think what you're taught

          Bb         C            F 

Because everybody else's mind is grey



     F          C        F

We kept up the act for, two-o-o-o-o

 F       C              F

Dates before it needed blue

           Bb             C 

I didn't drink what you drank

            F           Dm

You didn't sink when I sank

      Bb         C                 F

So, there's little else for us to do



Don't you ever wonder

Who's living in that house

It's too small for people

We all said

But there's people in the floorboards said the mouse



Said the mouse



   F        C            F

I didn't say, Goodbye today

       F        C          F

Oh, I did it, The cowards way

    Bb                 C

I tied it to the net, girl

   F             Dm

To see where it gets

       Bb      C 

To go sailing on

           F

Down your way



         F      C         F

But you poured petrol all over

      F        C              F

The ship you used to sail the sea

 Bb            C                F          Dm                    

You didn't think that you'd be coming home again 

Bb           C         F    

   So, you said Bye to me



 F        C     F 

Don't you ever ponder

     F        C     F

On things we never said

 Bb     C

Yes I did

        F            Dm

But when we were kids 

           Bb       C

Now it's too late

               F      C

Because we're dead

               F      C

Because we're dead

               F      C

Because we're dead

               F

Because we're deeeeeeeeaaaad
