Belle and Sebastian - I'm Waking up to Us,
the title track of their late 2001 release:
E Am EI need someone to take some joy in something I do
C#mYou need a man who's either rich, or losing a screw
BYou know I love you here's the irony:
A(open) C#m
You're going to walk away intact,
BI think you never loved me anyway
A(open) E
You love yourself and you love men
B E Bto kiss your arse, expensive clothes, please stop me there
E A BI think I'm waking up to us, we're a disaster
E A BYou don't want to know me cause you move in
E A B C#mCircles of the brave, where art defines their lives.
E A B E Am EShe was the one love of my life, and I let her go
E A B C#mAnd if I look like death today, then please let her know
BI never wanted any harm for her,
A(open) C#m BI only wanted her to see the beauty of the world surrounding her
A(open) E
But when she opened up her eyes
B E BIt's much too late, our chance is gone, she's with a guy
E A BWho takes the prize for everything I ever showed her
E A BDigging all the fun because she's older
E A B C#mI fed her with a spoon, I made her mother smile,
I helped the kid survive.
Bridge: E D A C x2
E Am EShe was the one love of my life, she showed me the road
C#mI loved her dog, her steady gaze, the chapter is closed.
B A(open) C#mI only wanted all the best for her, the best thing was to stay away
BShe grew up and she left the rest of us
A(open) E
And now the understanding's gone
B E BI haven't changed, how could I? I'm pretty much the same person
E B E A BI cannot keep the anger hidden anymore, but lucky for you
E A B E A BYou are not around, my anger turns to pity and to love,
C#mThe season has arrived, The season has arrived.
Another great tune from an outstanding group of musicians,
brilliant in its simplicity and heart.
Remember, 'Contrahit orator, variant in carmine vates'.
R. T. Devitt.
