Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][G][G]
[G][G][G][G]
[G][G][G][G]

[Chorus 1]
[G]By your [Am]hand is the [Em]only end I [G]foresee,
[G]I have been dre[Am]aming
you've [Em]been dreaming a[G]bout me
[G]By your han[Am]d is the onl[G]y end I for[C]esee,
[G]I have been dre[Em]aming
you've [G]been dreaming a[C]bout me

[Verse 1]
I was [G]sitting on my [Am]hands
at the [Em]top-deck of the 1 7 [C]8,
spitting [G]cusses at my [Am]face
[Em]reflected in the windscreen [C]pane.
Throwing [G]insults and calling [Am]names.
Filthy [G]SMSs that you sent through the [C]day,
By [G]sundown become [Em]tame,
[G]so I set it in motion a[C]gain

[Verse 2]
But fates a [C]cruel mistress, girl,
the prettiest in the world.
She dresses [G]loosely in a bathrobe
with her hair up in curls,
'cause we were [C]kissing for hours
with her hands in my trousers,
she could [G]not contain herself,
suggests we go back to her house.
But [C]here it comes, this is the crux,
she [G]vomits down my rental tux
I'm [Em]not sure if it's love anymore,
but I've been [C]thinking of you
fondly for [G]sure.
Remember what your [Am]heart is for

[Chorus 2]
[G]By your [Am]hand is the [Em]only end I [G]foresee,
[G]I have been dre[Am]aming
you've [Em]been dreaming a[G]bout me
[G]By your han[Am]d is the onl[G]y end I for[C]esee,
[G]I have been dre[Em]aming
you've [G]been dreaming a[C]bout me

[Bridge 1]
And it's a [Em]good [G]night
For a [Em]fist, a fist [G]fight
Because the [Am]dew will temper your f[B]all
You'll sing me [Am]lullabies
in form of your [A]cat-calls

[Verse 3]
And I've been [C]dangling in limbo,
barely keeping my cool
It's like I'm [G]snookered
'tween the back cushion
and touching the 8 ball
I keep re[C]playing my turn,
until your patience is shot,
you peel your [G]white gloves off seductively
before you respot
Your [C]fingertips leave marks and graze
I [G]lay you down atop the baize:
I'm [Em]not sure if it's love anymore,
but I've been [C]thinking of you
fondly for [G]sure
Remember what your [Am]heart is for

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][G][G]
[G][G][G][G]
Graceful, gracious companion
with your eyes of doe and thighs of stallion
[G]My gracious companion
with your eyes of doe and thighs of stallion

[Chorus 3]
[G]By your [Am]hand is the [Em]only end I [G]foresee,
[G]I have been dre[Am]aming
you've [Em]been dreaming a[G]bout me
[G]By your han[Am]d is the onl[G]y end I for[C]esee,
[G]I have been dre[Em]aming
you've [G]been dreaming a[C]bout me

[Outro 1]
