[Intro] D  Bm  A/C#  A

D    Bm     A/C#  A
(Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh)

[Primera Parte]

D              Bm
  We hereby conduct
                 A/C#
This post-mortem
                   A
He was a hot house flower to my outdoorsmen
D                   Bm
  Our maladies were such
                       A/C#
We could not cure them
                           A
And so a touch that was my birth right became foreign

[Estribillo]

D               A
  Come one come all
     E
It's happ'nin' again
    D   A      E
The empathetic hunger descends
D               A
  We'll tell no-one
      E
'Cept all of our friends
D            A
We must know
E              D
How did it end?
     Bm    A/C#   A
(Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh)

[Segunda Parte]

D                      Bm                  A/C#
 We were blind to unforeseen circumstances
                   A                                 D
We learn the right steps to diffеrent dances (Oh, oh-oh)
                   Bm                  A/C#
And fell victim to intеrlopers glances
                 A                             D
Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?
                                       Bm
Soon they'll go home to their husbands
                                         A/C#
Smug 'cause they know they can trust him
                              A
Then feverishly calling their cousins (Oh, oh)

[Estribillo]

D             A     E         D
 Guess who we ran into at the shops?
           A       E            D
Walking in circles like she was lost
           A
Didn't you hear?
     E             D
They called it all off
                  A
One gasp and then
E
How did it end?

[Instrumental] Bm  E  F#m  D
               Bm  E  F#m  D

[Puente]

Bm                        E
   Say it once again with feeling
                     F#m
How the death rattle breathing
                         D
Silenced as the soul was leaving
                     Bm
The deflation of our dreaming
                      E
Leaving me bereft and reeling
                     F#m
My beloved ghost and me
             D
Sitting in a tree
        D  A
D-y-i-n-g

[Pre-Estribillo]

     E             D  A
It's happening again
E             D  A
How did it end?
  E            D            A
I can't pretend like I understand
E
How did it end?

[Estribillo]

D               A
  Come one come all
     E
It's happening again
D         A      E            D
  The empathetic hunger descends
              A
We'll tell no-one
       E          D
Except all of our friends
                  A
But I still don't know
E              D
How did it end?
