[Intro]
D G D G D G D…………………….
 
[Verse 1]
D G On the night before your birthday
D GI set down to write this song
D GBut I was, I wasn’t sure what to say
D GAfraid these words’ll come out wrong
D GThat you will always be my darlin’
D G‘Til the end, end of measured time
D BmLike that pair of nestin’ starlings
C AWe’re growin’ more and more entwined
 
[Refrain]
D Bb F How the hell did you know
Am B EWhen all you know is what you don’t know?
 
[Chorus]
Em AStumble in the wilderness
Em A Burrs hopelessly stuck
Em A Instinct finally worked for once
Em D G D G D G D Or was it just, or was it just dumb luck?………………….
 
[Verse 2]
D G And it’s not like strikin’ lightnin’ (Not like strikin’ lightnin’)
D GThat keeps breakin’ Heaven’s vows (Breakin’ Heav?n’s vows)
D GOr that slow and vicious tightenin’ (Slow and vicious tightenin’)
D GThat what the heart allows (What the heart allows)
D GI could count the ways I love you
D GBut I was never one for maths
D BmWhile the heavens up above you
C AKeep gettin’ filled with sociopaths
 
[Refrain]
D Bb F Oh, siestas in June
Am C Fcatlike repose..
 
[Chorus]
Em A Lightnin’ in the afternoon
Em A Lizards on the tile
Em A Music from another room
Em D Let’s just linger, let’s just linger for a while
 
[Instrumental]
D G D G D G D……………………..
D G D G D G D……………………..
 
[Outro]
D GOn the night before your birthday
D GI set down to write this song
D GBut I wasn’t sure what to say
D GAfraid these words’ll come out wrong
