FWe hereby conduct Dmthis post-mortem
AmHe was a hot houseG flower to my outdoorsmen
FOur maladies were such Dmwe could not cure them
AmAnd so a touch that was
my birthright became Gforeign
FCome one, come all
DmIt's happenin' again
The Amempathetic Ghunger descends
FWe'll tell no one
DmExcept all of our friends
AmWe must know
GHow did it end?F
(Uh-Dmoh,Am uh-oh)G
FWe were blind to unforeseen Dmcircumstances
AmWe learned thе right steps to
different Gdancеs (Oh, oh-oh)
FAnd fell victim to Dminterloper's glances
AmLost the game of chance, Gwhat are the chances?
FSoon, they'll go home to their husbands
DmSmug 'cause they know they can trust him
AmThen feverishly calling their cousins G(Oh, oh)
FGuess who we ran into Dmat the shops?
AmWalking in circles Glike she was lost
FDidn't you hear?
DmThey called it all off
AmOne gasp and then
GHow did it end?F Dm Am G
F Dm Am G
FSay it once again with feeling
DmHow the death rattle breathing
AmSilenced as the soul was leaving
GThe deflation of our dreaming
FLeaving me bereft and reeling
DmMy beloved ghost and me
AmSitting in a tree
FD-Y-I-N-G
FIt's happenin' again
GHow did it end?F Dm
AmI can't pretend like I understand
GHow did it end?
FCome one, come all
DmIt's happenin' again
The Amempathetic Ghunger descends
FWe'll tell no one
DmExcept all of our friends
AmBut I still don't know
GHow did it end?
