Intro - C Am G F
        C Am G C
C                     Am
Amid the pause in the wreckage came
     G                 F
The peculiar light of a Saturday
C                         Am
Convictions formed in the ghost of you
         G                   C
But they fell apart, as they always do
    F                             C    G
The seething limbs all stick together
        F                              C    G
When a firmer hand would serve you better
          F                            C    Am
Cos the streets you walk are unforgiving
     G                                 C
And a softer voice takes longer hearing
Instrumental - C Am G C
      C                     Am
Your father said "Well there isn't much
          G                     F
That you couldn't do with the right approach"
    C                Am
But every hour is a cavalcade
       G                C
To be gazed upon as it slips away
    F                             C    G
The seething limbs all stick together
        F                              C    G
When a firmer hand would serve you better
          F                            C    Am
Cos the streets you walk are unforgiving
     G                                 C
And a softer voice takes longer hearing
Instrumental - C Am G F
               C Am G C
     C                       Am
You thought you'd found everything you'd lost
        G               F
In the open arms of a council park
    C                    Am
And all our hopes on this summer's day
      G                C
Is it boring you? Cos it's boring me.
    F                             C    G
The seething limbs all stick together
        F                              C    G
When a firmer hand would serve you better
          F                            C    Am
Cos the streets you walk are unforgiving
     G                                 C    Am
And a softer voice takes longer hearing
G                              F  Em  Dm  C
Softer voice takes longer hearing
