Six acres of concrete wasteland,

I can not buy you diamond rings, for Christ sake! I can barely sing

I didn't mean for this to happen but the greatest things happen
Em G
By accident, like the apple... on Issac's head.

Bm D
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine
G
Electricity, shooting down my spine.
A Bm D
We sat for hours, we waited 'til the sun went down

Alighted the night bus, nowhere near this town...
