Tom: G
G Em
I fell into you in the shadow of the staircase
C D
Washed my hands of you in the kitchen sink
G Em
And in that house I knew we'd never close this distance
C D
You said baby, we are closer than you think
G Em
So I made love to the idea of your involvement
C D
And the conversation we had in the dark
G Em
You said you'd never judge the way I solve my problems
C D
Then you left me in the garden talking art
[Chorus]
C Em D
I just wished we laughed in time, that's all
C Em C
I just wished we laughed in time, that's all
G
That's all
[Verse 2]
G Em
Fell out of my soft head the night we left The Mater
C D
Bravo maestro, never seen the sky so pink
G Em
Fell into your soft bed and stayed the morning after
C D
I said, "Baby, we are colder than we think"
G Em
So I made love to the idea of your approval
C D
And the conversations we had with our hands
G Em
I don't go in for that sort of thing, I told you
C D
Then I sang, "Stand By Your Man"
[Chorus]
C Em D
I just wished we laughed in time, that's all
C Em C
I just wished we laughed in time, that's all
G
That's all
[Verse 3]
G Em
I should have told you then that I had slipped you on inside my head
C D
There are bits of you in every journey home
G Em
Is it so bad, I like the way I look from your side of the bed
C D
You said baby, did you think I didn't know?
G Em
Still, I made love to the idea of our collusion
C D
And the conversation we had on the floor
G Em
While the backroom boys earned our disapproval
C D
Come on David, sing one more
[Chorus]
C Em D
I just wished we laughed in time, that's all
C Em C
I just wished we laughed in time, that's all
G
That's all
