Lyrics
Artist: Del Amitri
[INTRO]
[A] - [Bm7] 2x

[A] [Bm7] -
So who was first
[A] Obviously not [Bm7] me
[A] She's locked up in - [Bm7] side herself
And I [A] can't get anything [Bm7] free
So [A] won't somebody [Bm7] tell me please
Why the [E] former owner al - [Bm7] ways keeps the [A] keys

There's no [Bm7] bubbles to burst
No [A] bursting out crying nor [Bm7] dying of thirst
She's [A] utterly tied to [Bm7] somebody else
And it [A] seems he got there [Bm7] first

And [A] no, I'm not un - [Bm7] tying
The [A] reins around her neck that she [Bm7] feels
And I won't [A] try to prise out of her the [Bm7] truth anymore
When she [A] lies about the things that [Bm7] she sees
Because the [E] former owner al - [Bm7] ways keeps the [Bm6] keys

[BREAK]
[Bm6]
[E7]

There's [A] no [Dmaj7] calling
Come [A] here, you're necessary to [Dmaj7] me
There's no ex - [A] citement in her face when I im - [Dmaj7] plore
Cor - [A] rupt me and confess to me [Dmaj7] some more

And when we[A] hear trees falling
Or see [Bm7] people disappearing
Her e - [A] motions won't be reached or re - [Bm7] leased
Because the [E] former owner is
[Bm7] (keeping the [E] keys)
keeping the keys [Bm7]

Like a [A] ticket inspector
[Bm7] running for a bus
[A] Irony's revenge sur - [Bm7] rounds us
And it's i - [A] ronic that he promised you
he'd [Bm7] never let you go
When he's [A] left you used-up and dis - [Bm7] turbed

And I said [A] Just as the early bird [Bm7] catches the worm
The [A] early cat catches the [Bm7] bird
[E] [Bm7] [A] [Bm7] -
But that former owner is keeping his word
[E] -
[Bm7] keeping his [A] word

[Bm7] - [A] REP & FADE

[A] x02220
[Bm7] x24232
[E] 022100
[Bm6] x20434
[E7] 020130
