MIm
 Once upon a row of houses
DO
 Tight skirts and baggy trousers
SIm
 Grey men in cheap disguises

High hopes and higher rises
MIm
 Here lived a girl who was on a mission
DO
 Here lived a boy who was under suspicion
SIm
 Tried hard to stay beside her

Until the devil put his seed inside her
MIm
How?  You know how
DO 
Sleep too long and the sand runs out
SIm
 So close to midnight
MIm         
DO
Time to fly do or die
SIm
 Stung in the headlights

MIm
Here we lie
DO
High and dry
    
SIm
The world will never see you 

'till you open your eyes
MIm
Say goodnight
DO
Kill the light
    
SIm
The world will never hear you tonight

Idlewild


For two years he tried to reach her
DO
 Worshiped the ground beneath her
SIm
 She, she was always running

He, he saw the end was coming
MIm
 But now the story takes a turn
DO
 She wakes up and her sheets are burning
SIm
 Head down against the fire
                        
MIm
Now, now, now the table turns

She won't learn
DO   
Sleep too long and your bed starts burning
SIm
 So close to midnight
MIm       
DO
Idlewild, you don't know
SIm
 You never need to

MIm
Here we lie
DO
High and dry
    
SIm
The world will never see you 

'till you open your eyes
MIm
Say goodnight
DO
Kill the light
    
SIm
The world will never hear you tonight

MIm
 I thought that we were good together
DO
 I thought that we could weather the weather
SIm
 Whether or not that wise is the word for us

That high hopes are only there because, because
MIm
 Because I thought the only thing between us
DO
 Was something shallow, 
                               
SIm
not a river so deep, we see it's

Dredge up the wreckage our parents left us

Lay it on the banks to rot and fester
MIm
 Now a skeleton hanging like a death star
DO                                
SIm
 And grim and green in dark Manchester

I don't want to hear it now

MIm
Here we lie
DO
High and dry
    
SIm
The world will never see you 

'till you open your eyes
MIm
Say goodnight
