Verse:
Well I've got no ones word and nobody's promice
not a lot to show but this book full of sonnets
and my liver maybe fucked but my heart is honest
and my word is true like the sky is blue.
In the summer time when everybody get's on it
warm skins and get sunburnt from it
and our eyes shine bright like a sky full of comets
that shoot like silver trains.
Yeah eyes shine bright like a sky full of comets
that shoot like silver trains.
Chorus:
Well if you can't get what you love,
you learn to love the things you've got.
If you can't be what you want,
you learn to be the things you’re not.
If you can't get what you need,
you learn to need the things that stop you dreaming.
Oh ohoh
All the things that stop you dreaming.
B C#m A E
Ohh oh oh ohho no
And ohh oh oh ohho no
Ohh oh oh ohho no
B C#m A B
Ohouhoh oh no
Chorus:
Well if you can't get what you love,
you learn to love the things you've got.
If you can't be what you want,
you learn to be the things you're not.
If you can't get what you need,
you learn to need the things that stop you dreaming.
Ohouoh
All the things that stop you dreaming.
