D G
[Verse 1]
Em7
Live for the day,
G
When I'm left here on my own,
Em7
With no one to betray,
G D
It's no wonder I prefer be a castaway
G
Who finds a friendly shore.
[Verse 2]
Em7
When you have a friend,
G
Then you have yourself a foe.
Em7
My right to defend,
G
Yours to scatter with one blow,
D
My defences,
G
I'm defenceless.
[Verse 3]
Em7
Here in the dark,
G
I guess a few fuses have blown.
Em7
The bite's back in the bark,
G
And the garden's overgrown.
D
I'm in a right mess,
G
There's a tightness in my heart.
G
OH WHY, C YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO GO AWAY....
[NB - change to key of D]
[Verse 4]
D
Like a fly in the ointment,
Bm
Love makes my flesh creep.
A
Love gets me hot and bothered,
D
It's just a reward I can't reap.
D
Lying alone on the lawn babe,
Bm
Hot sun overhead,
A
Waiting for a breath of inspiration
D
To carry me away instead.
[Chorus]
D
Without a doubt,
D
Without a doubt.
A
Working
A
For precious little,
A
Playing,
A
The second fiddle.
[Verse 5]
D
I've been living on broken promises,
Bm
Living on guarantees,
A
Sometimes at night when the moon is bright,
D
You can see me down on my knees,
I'm looking for home truths,
Bm
An offer I can't refuse
A
A leap in the dark,
A touch and go,
D
I've got nothing left to lose?
[Chorus]
D
Without a doubt,
Without a doubt.
A
I'm learning,
A
Back where I started,
A
I'm learning,
A
I'm broken hearted,
D
But without a doubt,
D
Without a doubt.
A
I'm working
A
For precious little,
A
I'm playing,
A
The second fiddle
D
Without a doubt,
D
Without a doubt.
A
I'm learning,
A
Back where I started
A
I'm learning,
A
I'm broken hearted,
D
But without a doubt,
[NB - we're back to the key of G]
[Verse 6]
Em7
Live for the day
G
When I'm left here on my own
Em7
With no one to betray
G D
Its no wonder I prefer to be a castaway
G
Who finds a friendly shore
[Verse 7]
Em7
Washed up on rocks,
G
In the calm after the storm,
Em7
I can run a amok,
G
And every days a high-day,
D
A holiday, my hideaway,
G
I've got no reason left to stay.
G
OH WHY, C YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO GO AWAY
