Song For You

D                                            Bm
Rejections a constant, bitterness comes with age
                    G
Once or twice a lifetime you get days like today
                  D                         Bm
And I hope no one pissed on this milk crate
          A
I hope no pissed on this milk crate
D
Where there's no tidying up

And nothing falls and no one breaks
Bm
You can't say I'm disgusting
       G
If you don't mean it that way
                  D                       Bm
And I hope no one comes down this laneway
              A
I hope no one comes down this laneway
D
And I woke up before the sun in the arms of a tough girl
Bm                       G
Heard me speaking lately you've

Heard me speaking about her and

[Pre-Chorus]
                      D
Last night I said, "I love you" without a hint of fear
     Bm                                 A                            G
Last night I said, "I love you" nothing exploded, no one disappeared

[Chorus]
G                               A
And the realisation shatters through me
                              Bm
That I'm the villain in this movie
                                  D
But I've got no script and no direction
                            A
I just want you to let me love you
                            G
I just want you to let me love you
                            D
I just wanted you to let me

[Verse 2]
D                                         Bm
Dialogue is diluted by strangers and thin walls
                                        G
Little murmur runs through the audience

The first time he calls
                                  D                       Bm
You hang up and a sinking feeling falls amongst the crowd
                               A
Someone whispers to their wife
                             D
"My god, what's she doing now?"

"My future never really mattered much at all,"
            Bm                                G
I mutter to you down a telephone lying on the bathroom floor

[Pre-Chorus]
                          D                      Bm
And last night I said, "I love you" without fear
                       A                   G
Last night I said, "I love you" and I disappeared

[Chorus]
G                               A
And the realisation shatters through me
                              Bm
That I'm the villain in this movie
                                  D
But I've got no script and no direction
                            A
I just want you to let me love you
                            G
I just want you to let me love you
                            D    Bm
I just wanted you to let me

[Bridge]
D                                 Bm
And all I think I'd need to cast off insecurities
               D
Is for you to write something for me
                 Bm
Like I write for you incessantly
            D                              Bm
But I don't live in your mind the way that you do in mine
            D                          A
And my feet stick to the floor of the shower
           Bm                              G
But we get evicted in three-quarters of an hour
           D                 A             Bm                       G       A
And you rub paw-paw on a new tattoo and say, "One day there'll be a song about you."

D                                  Bm
One day there'll be a song for you
                      G       A
One day there'll be a song about you
D                                  Bm
One day there'll be a song for you
                      G       A
One day there'll be a song about you

D                                      Bm
And I know that you hated me that time
                       D/F#   A           D
But I've made up for that now haven't I?
                              Bm                  D/F    A      D
Soaked in spotlights spitting vitriol without the corresponding kind

[Outro]
D                                   Bm
One day there'll be a song for you
                      G       A
One day there'll be a song about you
D                                   Bm
One day there'll be a song for you
                      G       A
One day there'll be a song about you
