Posthumous Love Song by Chris Robson
[Intro]
G Cadd9 G D
G Cadd9 G D
[verse]
G Cadd9
I scream out your name in the dead of the night,
G Cadd9
Sweating and shaking I turn on the light,
G Cadd9 D
It’s like you are with me but really there’s nobody there.
G Cadd9
The daily specials board’s broken in two,
G Cadd9
It’s lying on the floor next to where I met you,
G Cadd9 D
I know it’s a dream but I know that it’s true and I cry.
[chorus]
C D
They never said it would end up like this,
G Em
My head’s in the fog and my life’s on the piss,
C D G Am C D G C Am D
And you are the only thing I ever miss anymore.
[verse]
G Cadd9
They told me that it would get better with time,
G Cadd9
But everyday’s longer with you on my mind,
G Cadd9 D
There’s part of me missing that I know that I’ll never find.
G Cadd9
Sometimes I’m happy and sometimes I’m sad,
G Cadd9
Remembering the best and the worst times we had,
G Cadd9 D
I think of you laughing when my jokes were bad and I smile.
[chorus]
C D
Still nobody said it would end up like this,
G Em
My head’s in the fog and my life’s on the piss,
C D G Am C D
And you are the only thing I ever miss anymore.
[instrumental]
G C Am D
G Am C D
G C Am D
[refrain]
C D
I only see when there’s no-one around,
Bm Em
I can pick out your voice when there isn’t a sound,
C D G Am C D
And I wish I could say something much more profound than I love you.
[instrumental]
G C Am D
G Am C D
G C Am D
[verse]
G Cadd9
I think I would join you if I had the guts,
G Cadd9
But life is a meadow that’s ploughed full of ruts,
Cadd9 D
And weeds have grown quickly to stifle the love that we shared.
G Cadd9
Now I could let all of this stuff bring me down,
G Cadd9
But one thing you gave me when you were around,
G Cadd9 D
Was the strength to live life to the full with my feet on the ground.
[chorus]
C D
And even though it shouldn’t end up like this,
G Em
With my head in the fog and my life on the piss,
C D G Am C D G C Am D
I’m glad you’re the only thing I’ll ever miss anymore.
[chorus]
C D
And even though it shouldn’t end up like this,
G Em
With my head in the fog and my life on the piss,
C D G Am C D
I’m glad you’re the only one I’ll ever miss anymore.
G Am C D
miss anymore.
G Am C D
miss anymore.
G C D G
miss anymore.
