Written by Damien Rice
E This has got to die G#m This has got to stop F#m This has got to lie down A Someone else on top E You can keep me pinned G#m It's easier to tease F#m But you can't paint an elephant A Quite as good as she E G#m And she may cry like a baby G#m A And she may drive me Crazy E A F#m B 'Cause I am lately lonely E So why d'you have to lie? G#m I take it I'm your crutch F#m The pillow in your pillow case A It's easier to touch E And when you think you've sinned G#m Do you fall upon your knees? F#m And do you sit within your picture? A Do you still forget the breeze? E G#m And she may rise, if I sing you down G#m A And she may wisely cling to the ground E A F#m B Cause I'm lately horny E A F#m B So why would she take me horny? F#m G#m What's the point of this song? Or even singing? A B You've already gone, why am I clinging? F#m G#m Well I could throw it out, and I could live without And I could do it all for you I could be strong G#m F#m Tell me if you want me to lie E 'Cause this has got to die G#m This has got to stop F#m This has got to lie down, down A With someone else on top E You can both keep me pinned G#m 'Cause it's easier to tease F#m But you can't make me happy A Quite as good as me
