[Verse 1]

Anabelle Leigh
Cmaj7 Bsus2 Em
Do you consent to be my only love
Cmaj9 Em
I see you there on the bed
Cmaj7 Bsus2
Your shirt lays bare, your thin white arms
[Chorus]
Em
And surely by now
Cmaj7
Surely by now
Am D
All the plans we made are gone
Em
Surely by now
Cmaj9
Surely by now
Bsus2 Em
It's all in tatters
[Verse 2]
Cmaj9 Em
With a lift of an eyelash
Cmaj7 Bsus2 Em
You were holding my heart in your little hands
Cmaj9 Em
Glaring soft with the goosedown
Cmaj7 Bsus2
And I will gently loose your shirt to fall
[Chorus]
Em
And surely by now
Cmaj7
Surely by now
Am D
All the plans we made are gone
Em
Surely by now
Cmaj9
Surely by now
Bsus2
It's all in tatters
[Interlude]
Em Cmaj9 Em Cmaj9 Bsus2
[Chorus]
Em
And surely by now
Cmaj7
Surely by now
Am D
All the plans we made are gone
Em
Surely by now
Cmaj9
Surely by now
Bsus2
It's all in tatters
