How Did It End?

Intro D  Bm  A/C#  A 

D    Bm     A/C#  A 
(Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh) 


[Verso 1]

D             Bm 
 We hereby conduct 
                 A/C# 
This post-mortem 
                   A 
He was a hot house flower to my outdoorsmen 
D                  Bm 
 Our maladies were such 
                       A/C# 
We could not cure them 
                           A 
And so a touch that was my birth right became foreign 


[Refrão]

D              A 
 Come one come all 
     E 
It's happ'nin' again 
    D   A      E 
The empathetic hunger descends 
D              A 
 We'll tell no-one 
      E 
'Cept all of our friends 
D            A 
We must know 
E              D 
How did it end? 
     Bm    A/C#   A 
(Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh) 


[Verso 2]

D                      Bm                  A/C# 
 We were blind to unforeseen circumstances 
                   A                                 D 
We learn the right steps to diffеrent dances (Oh, oh-oh) 
                   Bm                  A/C# 
And fell victim to intеrlopers glances 
                 A                             D 
Lost the game of chance, what are the chances? 
                                       Bm 
Soon they'll go home to their husbands 
                                         A/C# 
Smug 'cause they know they can trust him 
                              A 
Then feverishly calling their cousins (Oh, oh) 



[Refrão]

D             A     E         D 
 Guess who we ran into at the shops? 
           A       E            D 
Walking in circles like she was lost 
           A 
Didn't you hear? 
     E             D 
They called it all off 
                  A 
One gasp and then 
E 
How did it end?

[Ponte]

Bm                       E 
  Say it once again with feeling 
                     F#m 
How the death rattle breathing 
                         D 
Silenced as the soul was leaving 
                     Bm 
The deflation of our dreaming 
                      E 
Leaving me bereft and reeling 
                     F#m 
My beloved ghost and me 
             D 
Sitting in a tree 
        D  A 
D-y-i-n-g

It's happening again

How did it end? 
  E            D            A 
I can't pretend like I understand 
E 
How did it end?

 Come one come all 
     E 
It's happening again 
D        A      E            D 
 The empathetic hunger descends 
              A 
We'll tell no-one 
       E          D 
Except all of our friends 
                  A 
But I still don't know 
E              D 
How did it end?
