[Verse 1]
Am       G                        Am         G
    The shadows fill the corners across the square
Am               G                            Am       G
    They come a-crawling to offer shelter, to haul me in
F               G
    Without a needlepoint in the light
        F        G
And the steel to still your tongue
Am      G                            Am      G
    The night hides a multitude of uncovered sins

[Verse 2]
Am          G                              Am    G
    The heart beating in Capricorn, I take on a guise
Am             G                        Am      G
    They won't define me anytime in the English rain
F        G                     F          G
    Will I feel an automatic release from all this pain?
Am          G                         Am     G
    With no movement, undiscovered, I lie in wait

[Chorus]
F                    G
   So what if you're sentimental
        Am            Bm
And I'm out of tears, out of sympathy?
F                    G
   I'll make it look accidental
         Am               Bm
And I'll leave no sign to say your life was mine
F           G                    Am
   No-one I think fell out of my tree
         Bm               F
No-one I carried just the same
             G                Am
Thinner than most sinners and saints alive
Bm
Dare you speak my name?
F                    G
   So what if you're temperamental
        Am            Bm
And I'm out of tears, out of sympathy?
F                 G
   So what if I'm elemental?
Am    Bm        F G Am Bm
Oh-oh-oh-oh....
