D      G            D
  I sup -   pose love lives in a   dustbin
    G         D
Be -   hind the garden   wall
          G
You have to grovel   on the ground
           D
and be pretty dis -   gusting
  G
to   find it at all

   D           G
And   I suppose that it   grows on you
D             G
  Standing there with no   clothes on
   D
and   I suppose
         G              D
because there's   beautiful girls in this   town
             G
I'll stay here till I've   chosen one.


D              G
  I suppose life's like a   hunt, really
   D
the   hounds have fun
      G
until the   fox gets bagged
   D            G
And   not one girl in this   town
          D
will ever fall in   love with me:
G
   They'll get dragged.

   D
Her   heart
G             D
  speaks to me; says the   room the room the room
   G
Be -   neath her dress, and


D           G
  I suppose that it   beats for me
    D             G
Like a   hammering moon pulling   tides through her chest


    D             G
Sup -   pose she says that she   owes me
D             G
  all that she owns and   all that she is
  D            G
It   seems to me I sup -   pose that
   D
her   heart's not enough
     G
and her   love is a swizz

D      G            D
  So sup -   pose love lives in a   mansion
     G             D
how the  hell do I get over the   wall

      G                 D
And if my   rope's not stretched the right   tension
     D               D
I won't   cross this grand canyon at   all

           G
And I suppose that it  grows like a tumor
D
  spreads like a rumor
     G                 D
like the   grass grows and inch in every   day

             G
And I suppose that be -   fore I even know it
   D
the   tide will start flowing
     G               B5
and the   drum beneath my jacket will   say


D5                 B5
  You know you need her every -   day
D                 B5
  You know you need her every -   day
D5                 B5
  You know you need her every -   day
D                 B5
  You know you need her every -   day
D5                 B5
  You know you need her every -   day
D                 B5   D - B5 - D //
  You know you need her every -   day
