Tom: Dm
G
Good times and bad times
G
The love that we shared
A
Now you sleep on the sofa
A
And I don't care
Am D
Time was I'd reach for your hand
G
And you'd always be there
G
So what can we do but
G
Divide up our books
A
And our records? And field
A
All our friends' funny looks
Am7 D
You take the TV and I take the bed
G
Or a chair
[Bridge]
Gm
I found an old photo
Eb
From when we first met
F
When I still wore your clothes
Bb
And we'd just stay in bed
Gm Eb
On Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays
C D
I'd skip work for you instead
[Chorus]
Em A7
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7 D G
Love is an unmade bed
Em A7
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7 D G
Love is an unmade bed
[Verse]
G
You and me, babe
G
We're a Vaudeville show
A
All jazz hands and kisses
A
Nobody would know
Am7
We're dying inside
D G
But always the life and the soul
G
Like brother and sister
G
None closer than we
A
When you say you're too tired
A
I'm secretly relieved
Am D
But I try to see you again
G
To see you like the first time
[Bridge]
Gm
And sometimes I glimpse us
Eb
Before we were us
F
Before we had bills
Bb
And before we had staff
Gm Eb
Before we bought suitable wine for our meals
Am D
And bought records instead
[Chorus]
Em A
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7 D G
Love is an unmade bed
Em A
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7 D G
Yeah, love is an unmade bed
[VERSE CHORDS - hum or doobedoo. Or la. Or keep quiet. I can't tell you how to live your life]
G A Am7 D G
[Verse]
G
I see you again in a year
G
Maybe two
A
At a wedding or birthday
A
And you'll have moved on
Am D
And just for a moment I'll choke
G
Then the moment is gone
G
Just for a second
G
I'll question it
A
All nostalgic
A
And trying to hide it
Am D
Then I'll snuff out this thought in this matter,
G
The issue decided.
