Metaphorically Yours by Ed Harcourt
taken from the album 'From Every Sphere'
Tabbed by Toby Martin
Original song is slightly sharp.
D
Oh baby can't you see
F#/C#
when you get mad at me
Bm A/C# G G/F#
your eyes light up your face
D
Oh baby, just admit
F#/C#
if both my wrists were slit
Bm A/C# G G/F#
you'd bandage them with style and grace
Em F#m
And it's not over
G A
I don't think that it will be
D A/C# Bm D/F#
and we are joined at the hip like Siamese twins
G
and that's a metaphor
D Bm
for the feelings that I store
Em D/F# G G/F#
I confess I love you so
Em D/F# G G/F#
I confess I love you so
Em D/F# G A
I confess I love you so
D
but you know
D
With you I'm never bored
F#/C#
yes ma’am, you strike a chord
Bm A/C# G G/A
that makes me shiver and mumble
D
I'm chomping at the bit
F#/C#
I need my daily fix
BM A/C# G G/F#
or my whole world will crumble
Em F#m
And it's not over
G A
I don't think that it will be
D A/C# Bm D/F#
and we are joined at the hip like Siamese twins
G
and that's a metaphor
D Bm
for the feelings that I store
Em D/F# G G/F#
I confess I love you so
Em D/F# G G/F#
I confess I love you so
Em D/F# G A
I confess I love you so
D
but you know
D
Come wrap your arms around
F#/C#
the man who's back in town
Bm A/C# G
and loves to watch you smile
D
Don't know if I should laugh or cry
F#/C#
with you sleeping by my side
Bm A/C# G G/F#
I hear the silence for miles
Em F#m
And it's not over
G A
I don't think that it will be
D A/C# Bm D/F#
and we are joined at the hip like Siamese twins
G
and that's a metaphor
D Bm
for the feelings that I store
Em D/F# G G/F#
I confess I love you so
Em D/F# G G/F#
I confess I love you so
Em D/F# G A
I confess I love you so
D
but you know
