CAPO 5
Intro:
F – C – G – C x2
Well wood burns,
and metal rusts,
So, darling,
what’s to become of us,
When the weather turns,
and they say it must,
Well we’ll need
coats for the both of
us,
But the wool is thin
and it’s full of holes,
And there’s no heat
in this abandoned bus,
So will we go alone
, out on our own,
Oh, darling, wh
at’s to become of us
F – C – G – C x2
Well, boats sink
into the sea,
And airplanes that
crash like computer scr
eens,
And signals fai
l, trains dera
il,
And car bonnets
crumple like magazines,
’Til they’re put in piles
like stacks of tiles,
In a yard full of
fridges and broken stuff,
Will we go alone
out on our own,
Oh, darling,
what’s to become of us
F – C – G – C x2
We will bite our noses off to
spite our faces,
F C (F C G C rapidly)
Both of us will rust like metal fences in the rain,
You will pour the gasoline and
I will spark the matches,
We will
burn within our fire, we will
burn within our flames
F – C – G – C x2
Well yeast ferments
and milk sours,
When it’s out of the
fridge for too many hours,
Well we lamen
t in separate towers,
Never knowing if we’re
brave or if we’re cowards,
For they pour cement
down this hole of ou
rs,
And we’ll be
stuck under stones and flowers,
Will we go alone
out on our own,
Oh, darling, that’s what w
ill become of us
