Verse
B Abm Gb
Use a pen to reflect
E
what you've got left to protect
Abm Gb E
on the old dusty shelves
in your childhood room
B Abm Gb
you've got a lot to go on:
E
posters of Simon LeBon
Abm Gb E
all might help you decide
In case you ever try
B Abm Gb
They just want you to come by
E
The florist in foam
Abm Gb E
A rigid folk's home in time that I might cry
Gb E B
Cut all these ties you'll see
A
How far apart we are
(riff 1)
No two of us sees or acts alike
Repeat verse chords now:
B Abm Gb E Abm Gb E E (x2)
Another guitar plays about with
B string playing open, 4th and 5th frets
Repeat verse chords for second verse
Wasting time and pretend
You've got the words to defend
well every bias you've learned while being human
Remember that we all knew
Riding big wheels was cool
We'd give it all to be that dumb again
E
Gb E B
These are all bonds and ties
A
In spite of what they are
(riff 1)
No two of us tells or thinks the same
B Abm Gb E Abm Gb E E (x2)
Gb E B
Cut all these ties you'll see
A
How far apart we are
then comes in guitar 1:
and guitar 2 plays chord
A

Those are our bonds and ties
A
In spite of what they are
(riff 1) B
