D                G
There's no reason to be bored when,
Bm                   Em
A face like yours is adored by all men.
G
Your making up for lost time,
         A                G
And your best ideas were mine.
D             G
At the age of twenty-seven,
Bm                Em
You realized your bed was empty.
G                               A
A child is what I need but your face is all I see.


[Chorus]
                               G
Those bruises don't betray any violence on my part,
        D                        G
You've taken my possessions we both dressed up like tarts,
          A                            G                       D
But it's miserable and sluttish to be acting like I do in front of you.
    A                              G
No matter how you try you'll never be as cheap as me,
     D                                     G
When people have got no one else they can always sleep with me,
    A                      G                         D
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me   
    A                      G                         D
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me

[Verse]
                G
It's not love it just smells like it,
Bm                     Em
The scent of summer is so exciting.
   G
No matter how you brush your teeth,
      A                   G
I can still smell the nicotine.
D                  G
And there's no face I'd rather kiss than,
Bm               Em
Your sweet face, oh when it's smiling.
  G
I loved you until you were bedded,
         A
And our parents still talk of a wedding.


[Chorus]
                                 G
Those bruises don't betray any violence on my part,
    D                        G
You've taken my possessions we both dressed up like tarts,
          A                            G                       D        D
But it's miserable and sluttish to be acting like I do in front of you.
    A                              G
No matter how you try you'll never be as cheap as me,
     D                                     G
When people have got no one else they can always sleep with me,
    A                      G                         D
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me 
    A                      G                         D
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me
