well I bled blue blood from my back last night, I was alone
 G                                 Am
aubergine sheets on my bed now, oh no
         G                          Am
and your blue eyes lie just like an atlas in those sockets
          G                Am
yeah your blue eyes cry mapwater when you're sorry
         G      Am
oh so sorry, oh no

Em                              C
you with the nape that holds my gaze
Em                                 C
you with the tongue that speaks my name
Em                                C
you with the arms that keep me at length
Em                                     C
you with the heart that won't show its face

    G                               Am
and jesus sucks the mud out of your soul
        G                                   Am
but the flame in my eye, it's gone blue and cold
        G                            Am
and you risked your wrist to save my life
      G                           Am
and I should have kissed you that night, but it ain't right

and absence makes my heart grow hollow
C
absence makes my heart grow hollow
Em
make me into an egg without yoke
    C
you make me into an egg without yoke
Em
absence makes my heart grow hollow
C

Em
make me into an egg without yoke
    C
you make me into an egg without yoke

I was unborn when I was younger
      C
I was unborn when I was younger
    Em
but I was rebuilt when you spoke
C
  I awoke when you spoke
           Am*
you said, "there's always a reason for leaving,
Em*
there's always a reason to stay.
   Am*
I know exactly why I'm leaving:
Em*
  I just can't stay" and I say,
     Am*                          Em*
"I'll give you my whole summer when you unfurl your fingers.
Am*
I would be lying if I said you had nothing
   Em*                                           Am*  Em*
to do with me, you're to blame for my being this way, way.
