Farewell Wanderlust

Dm Gm A Dm Gm You look like I need a drink he winked as he slipped from my grasp to the bar A And you are? Dm He said me? (me) Little me? (little me) Gm He called from the brink of the day (He called from the brink of the day) A He said ´Hey darling hey, hey darling hey´ I’m the hardest goodbye that you’ll ever have to say Dm You don’t know it yet, but I’m the cupid of things C That you just didn’t get, that you struggled to say A# I’m the saint of the paint that was left in the pot A I’m your angel ellipsis, your devil of dots Dm Every time that you fumble, I’m the laugh from the back C When you think about him, my wings start to flap A# When you make a mistake, my feet lift from the floor A And when you lie there awake every night love, I soar Dm I promise you I’ll be better C I promise you I’ll try A# But like rubbing wine stains into rugs it’s my curse A To try and make it right, but by trying make it worse Dm I’m the heartbreak that aches far too much to be shunned C All those letters unsent and that garden ungrown A# I’m the captain of courage you’ve eternally lacked A I’m the Jesus of wishing to Christ he’ll come back Dm A# Because Farewell Wanderlust, you’ve been oh so kind Gm A You brought me to this party but you left me here behind Dm A# So long to the person you begged me to be Gm Gm She’s down. She’s dead A Instead what is left but this old satin dress A and the mess that you left when you told me I wasn’t right in the head Dm ´You alright?´ Gm Asked the boys from beyond A You gave us such a fright Gm We’d hate to see your mascara drip into your pint Dm Gm Might you allow me to slip into something more comfortable then? A Be our guest. With hoik of her bra, she waved to the bar and she slipped into the night Dm Come devil come, she sang, call out my name C Let’s take this outside cos we’re one and the same A# Our gods have abandoned us, left us, instead A Take up arms, take my hand, let us waltz for the dead Dm I’m the face that stares back when the screen goes to black C When your mum says ‘you look healthy’ but you know she means you got fat A# I’m the tales that the guests will applaud and believe A I’m the child that you just didn’t have time to conceive Dm I promise you I’m not broken C I promise you there’s more A# A More to come, more to reach for, more to hurl at the door Dm Goodbye to all my darkness, there’s nothing here but light C Adieu to all the faceless things that sleep with me at night A# This here is not make up, it’s a porcelain tomb A N.C. And this here is not singing, I’m just screaming in tune Dm A# Because Farewell Wanderlust, you’ve been ever so kind Gm A You brought me through this darkness but you left me here behind Dm A# And so long to the person you begged me to be Gm Gm He’s down. He’s dead A Now take a good long look at what you’ve done to me? Dm A# C A Gm Dm Gm Gm S/He’s down, S/He’s dead A A S/He’s gone, S/He’s lost Gm Gm S/He’s flown, S/he’s fled A Dm Now take a good long look at what you've all done to me
