Love Is An Unmade Bed

G
Good times and bad times
G
The love that we shared
        A
Now you sleep on the sofa
   A
And I don't care
Am                          D
Time was I'd reach for your hand
                    G
And you'd always be there

   G
So what can we do but
   G
Divide up our books
        A
And our records? And field
        A
All our friends' funny looks
Am7                  D
You take the TV and I take the bed
     G
Or a chair

[Bridge]

  Gm
I found an old photo
     Eb
From when we first met
       F
When I still wore your clothes
         Bb
And we'd just stay in bed
   Gm                      Eb
On Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays
         C                D
I'd skip work for you instead

[Chorus]

    Em                    A7
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7          D       G
Love is an unmade bed
    Em                    A7
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7          D       G
Love is an unmade bed

[Verse]

G
You and me, babe
G
We're a Vaudeville show
    A
All jazz hands and kisses
    A
Nobody would know
      Am7
We're dying inside
    D                       G
But always the life and the soul

     G
Like brother and sister
     G
None closer than we
         A
When you say you're too tired
         A
I'm secretly relieved
      Am               D
But I try to see you again
                    G
To see you like the first time

[Bridge]

    Gm
And sometimes I glimpse us
  Eb
Before we were us
  F
Before we had bills
      Bb
And before we had staff
  Gm                      Eb
Before we bought suitable wine for our meals
           Am           D
And bought records instead

[Chorus]

    Em                    A
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7          D       G
Love is an unmade bed
    Em                    A
Oh, love is a rock, not a straitjacket
Am7          D       G
Yeah, love is an unmade bed

[VERSE CHORDS - hum or doobedoo. Or la. Or keep quiet. I can't tell you how to live your life]

G A Am7 D G

[Verse]

  G
I see you again in a year
 G
Maybe two
     A
At a wedding or birthday
    A
And you'll have moved on
    Am                     D
And just for a moment I'll choke
                   G
Then the moment is gone

 G
Just for a second
 G
I'll question it
    A
All nostalgic
    A
And trying to hide it
          Am                            D
Then I'll snuff out this thought in this matter,
             G
The issue decided.
