2 Of Us

Am           C
Lying in my bed, I think of you
Am                         C                      Am
That song goes through my head, the one we both knew
Am                  C
In each line lies another line full of sacred sound
Am                            C                                  F
But you're outside where the companies dream and the money goes round

F            G
Lying in my bed
               Em
Watching my mistakes
                 F                                  G    F    Em F   G F   Em   E
I listen to the band they said that it could be the 2 of us

Am                       C
The snow might fall and write the lines on the silent page
Am                         C                            Am
But you're outside making permanent love to the nuclear age
Am                      C
Two silhouettes by the cash machine make a lovers dance
Am                    C                             F
It's a tango for the lonely wives of the business class

F            G
Lying in my bed
               Em
Watching my mistakes
                 F
I listen to the band
F            G
Lying in my bed
                     Em                      F
With nothing much to say so I listen to the man
                             G    F    Em F   G F   Em   E
He said that it could be the 2 of us

Am                      C                                Am
I heard you call from across the city through the stereo sound
                        C                                    F
And so I crawled there sickeningly pretty as the money went round

F            G
Lying in my head
               Em
Watching my mistakes
                 F
I listen to the band
F                        G
And the drums beat in my head
                  Em
Pianos chime the sound
                       F
In this prison of the house
F                         G
And as the illness comes again
                            Em
Can you hear me through the rain
                    F
As I listen to the band?
F                     G
As I sing the silent song
                 Em
Mime each lonely word
                      F
Please listen to the man
                             G    F    Em F   G F
He said that it could be the 2 of us

Em   D   Em   D   G F   Em   F   G

C              F       G       C
Alone but not lonely, you and me
C              F       G       C
Alone but not lonely, you and me
C          F      G      C
Alone but loaded, oh-oh-oh
C          F      G      C
Alone but loaded, oh-oh-oh
C   F   G     C
        Oh-oh-oh
C   F   G     C
        Oh-oh-oh
