Tom: F#m
C#m D F#m
C#m D F#m
[Verse 1]
C#m D F#m
Did you ever read Albert Camus?
C#m D A E
The bit about how you got to turn away from the world to understand it
C#m
Did you feel this too?
D F#m A E
I was in a mindless kind of queue
D F#m
But then I went and put myself right out
Found things just got a bit wilder
[Chorus]
D F#m
Haven't you heard right?
D A
It's a truly absurd life
D F#m
Tomorrow you could be a big hole
E D
And the next day you could be a king
A
Can't return to my old ways
D F#m
When the nothingness held up the days
D A
And now come to think of it
E D A D F#m
I only got out of bed for you
[Verse 2]
C#m D F#m
I used to think nothing of the end
C#m D A
Repeating each day was my forte
E C#m
Spinning out time like a spider with a web
D F#m A E
Devouring every second, I was fed
D F#m
But then I went and sailed right out, got lost
D
Found things just got a bit lighter
[Chorus]
F#m
Haven't you heard, love?
D A
It's a truly absurd love
D F#m
Tomorrow you could be a big kiss
E D
And the next day you could be a stone
A
Can't return to my old lives
D F#m
Quite oblivious to all of the signs
D A
And now come to think of it
E D A D
I only got out of bed for you
[Bridge]
Dm A
Invited to the feast
Dm A
Only had one grape
Dm A
Always arrived ahead of time
E A
But turned out I was late
Dm A
I can see now the world does not care
Dm A
That is okay with me
Dm A D
So I never needed a boat to sail out to the sea
[Chorus]
F#m
Haven't you heard right?
D A
It's a truly absurd life
D F#m
Tomorrow you could be a big hole
E D
And the next day you could be a king
A
Can't return to my old ways
D F#m
When the nothingness held up the days
D A
And now come to think of it
E D
I only got out of bed for you
F#m
Haven't you heard, love?
D A
It's a truly absurd love
D F#m
Tomorrow you could be a big kiss
E D
And the next day you could be a stone
A
Can't return to my old lives
D F#m
Quite oblivious to all of the signs
D A
And now come to think of it
E D
I only got out of bed for you
