[Verse 1]
G
It turned to shit
On April 18th
Em Bm
You were home on the stairs with an old cup of tea

And your head weighed heavy in your hands

All the trouble with your sleeping
From the hall I could hear your breathing

Restless under blinding lights
[Pre-Chorus]

A fool

I fenced our love into a rut

And I have no defence

For how we got there
