Intro
| Aadd9 | Aadd9 | Bm | Aadd9
| Aadd9 | Aadd9 | Bm | Aadd9
| C D | E5 |
| C D | E5 | (play last chord once, then launch into the first verse)
Aadd9
Oh my darling I was born when I met you
Bm
If you don't mind now would I lie cuz could I get you
Aadd9
To re-design and re-deliver me again
I'll be your baby and I'll be your father
Your little brother won't be no bother
Bm Aadd9
Just born in autumn, came and I am here
C D E5
I see you saw me in the mirror in half
C D E5 (play once)
it's so exciting that we both just laugh and laugh
Aadd9
The other night you were away I missed you so bad
Bm
I found me doing something desperate I was so sad
Aadd9
I swear I held my own hand pretending it was yours
Oh my monkey love is funny when it's so strong
Bm
And it's so strong and it goes on for so, so long
Aadd9
And it's long and strong and funny and it pours
C D E5
I see you saw me in the mirror in half
C D E5 (play once before ripping
it's so exciting that we both just laugh and laugh into the outro)
The outro starts with two downstrokes on D(5) and basically consists of playing the E5
chord over and over with two downstrokes on either D5 (x577xx), G5 (x101212xx) or
occasionally C5 (x355xx) and D5 at the end of each bar. Make it up as you go along or
play something like this:
D E G E D E C-D E G E C-D E G E G E G E E E E
Easy-peasy!
