"All The Young Monogamists" by Steven Page
Intro: C E7 Am Em F C G
C E7 Am
All the young monogamists
Am Em F
Are walking through the park
F C G
Each of them protagonists
G C
In stories they won't start
C E7 Am
You and I, we smile at them
Am Em F
We've seen it all before
F C G
Older now, and wiser when
G
We both know what's in store
Break: C E7 Am Em F G C
C E7 Am
As they gaze into the eyes
Am Em F
Of the one they love
F C G
They can feel inside of them
G C
That this is not enough
C E7 Am
Some of them will just grow tired
Am Em F
Some of them will flee
F C G
Some of them will sleep around
G
Just like you and me
Break: C E7 Am Em F G C
C E7 Am
You and I, we settled for
Am Em F
Whatever'd come along
F C G
And thought that lies were just like love
G C
When put into a song
C E7 Am
How could we, the cynical,
Am Em F
Who've been around the block
F C G
Ever trust another soul?
G C
And who of us should talk?
C E7 Am
But here we are, monogamists
Am Em F
A-swearing it will last
F C G
I know it seems ridiculous
G
Considering our pasts
C E7 Am Em F G C
But I will al-ways be true to you
C E7 Am Em F G C
Yes I will al-ways be true to you.
