chorus 1

F
lust of the libertines
                Bb
is really quite tame
                         F
It rages quite nice here beside you
                  Bb
and your lust for fame
                           F
well fames such a sinister game, i know
                          Bb
it could all end this way then
                        F
some things wont be the same
                                 Bb
i'm just a face, and a name on a page
                     F
well i'll be soundly sleeping, i'll be soundly sleeping
                               Bb
i'll sleep right through that age

verse
                             F
well i can deal with all the blood on my shoes

and the holes in my soul
                                       Bb
my spirit is tainted all my tears are fainted
                F
just as long as you 
          C
you dont forget to 
        F
uh-oh-oh
               Bb
cut me on the wall
       F                                C
by the graffiti of all the the things i just couldn't say
F                Dm
shove me up the wall
Bb                            F  
oh my darling was the kind of loving now
C                            F
you've left me in the family way again

verse 2 (as verse 1)

the dust on my tambourine
really can be explained
i need to shake it more often
shake away the blame
well fames such a sinister game
oh i know
the taste of goulash in your mouth as you stumble off stage
forget-me-nots bloom on this day then
but they wither with age

chorus
outro (same as verse)
end
