Intro: G  Bm7  C C7M
       G  D  C (2x)

Verso:
G             Bm7      C
You grew on me like a tumour
G             Bm7            C
And you spread through me like malignant melanoma
G                  C
And now you're in my heart
G                  C
I should've cut you out back at the start

Ponte:
Em      D/F#            C/G
Now I'm afraid there's no cure for me
Em      D/F#            C/G
No dose of emotional chemotherapy
B                  Em
Can halt my pathetic decline
B                  Em            F# ( F#7 F#6 F#5 )
I should've had you removed back when you were benign

G            Bm5       C
I picked you up like a virus
G        Bm7            C
Like meningococcal meningitis
G                  C
Now I can't feel my legs
G                  C
When you're around I can't get out of bed

Em      D/F#            C/G
I've left it too late to risk an operation
Em      D/F#            C/G
I know there's no hope for a clean amputation
B                  Em
The successful removal of you
B                  Em            F# ( F#7 F#6 F#5 )
Would probably kill me too

G             Bm7      C
You grew on me like carcinoma
G             Bm7            C
Crept up on me like untreated glaucoma
C      Cm      G
Now I find it hard to see
C            Cm            G
This untreated dose of you has blinded me

Em      D/F#            C/G
I should've consulted my local physician
Em      D/F#            C/G
I'm stuck now forever with this tunnel vision
B                  Em
My periphery is screwed
B            Em            F#      G#7
Wherever I look now, all I see is you

F#m                  D
When we first met you seemed fickle and shallow
F#m                  D
But my armour was no match for your poison arrow
C#                  F#m
You are wedged inside my chest
C#                  F#m            G#
If I tried to take you out now I might bleed to death
G#                  G#7 G#6 G#5
I'm feeling short of breath

A                  D
You grew on me like a tumour
A            D            A
And you spread through me like malignant melanoma
D      Dm6            A
I guess I never knew
D      Dm6            A
How fast a little mole can grow on you
