All barre chords (F# should be [x98676] to play it correctly)

Intro: F# B C#m B G#m C#m Eadd9 B x 2

       F#          B         C#m  B
It was summer when she moved in
           G#m         C#m         Eadd9   B
And it was winter when she moved out again
        F#  B             C#m  B
And the sky was usually blue
        G#m            C#m             Eadd9  B
And the single bed was big enough for two

     F#               B         C#m   B
It's funny the things that stay with you
    G#m              C#m           Eadd9           B
Her jewellery on the table and the smell of her perfume
    F#                B       C#m                 B
The candle wax on the carpet, singing in the supermarket
      G#m    C#m      Eadd9  B
And the wall paper in her bedroom

     Eadd9                   C#m           B
I'll never understand how it happened like this
  Eadd9                 C#m        B
I drew an open hand and she drew a fist
          Eadd9                         C#m   B     F#
I drew an arrow and a heart, she drew a razor and a wrist

Break: F# B C#m B G#m C#m Eadd9 B x 2

            F#                 B
She said 'I love you when it's sunny'
        C#m            B
But the sun refused to shine
         G#m   C#m         Eadd9   B
And I was crucified on the clothes line
    F#        B               C#m    B
She stole a magazine from the laundromat
       G#m            C#m              Eadd9        B
Did it weigh upon her conscience as it lay upon her lap

    Eadd9                   C#m     B
The body is willing but the mind is weak
    Eadd9                         C#m     B
The champagne is chilling and the wine is cheap
    Eadd9                           C#m      B         F#
The milk was always spilling and we cried ourselves to sleep

Break: F# B C#m B G#m C#m Eadd9 B x 2

       F#          B         C#m  B
It was summer when she moved in
           G#m         C#m       Eadd9  B
And it was winter when she moved house again
    F#    B    C#m  B 
The boxes on the floor
        G#m           C#m              Eadd9  B
And the note that she pinned to my door

     Eadd9            B
This house is made of sticks
     Eadd9            B
This house is made of straw
     Eadd9            B
This house is made of bricks
              Eadd9          B
This house is made of weatherboard

Outro: G#m Em B
