When the Romance Is Dead – The Beautiful South

	 A		   E		  A
You’ll know when the romance is dead
     D		A		E		 A
Your make up in a toolbox somewhere in the shed
    D		A		  E         A
His face is unshaven, the grass overgrown
	   D		   A   	E		 A
From the shed to the bed is a web you call home

	 A		   E		  A
You’ll know when the romance is dead
     D		A		   E		   A
That deathly cold blast from his side of the bed
     D		 A		E	        A
Your dreams frozen over, your nightmares on ice
	   D			A
From the bedroom to the bathroom you say
E	     A	E	     A
Everything twice (everything twice)

	     D	    A			E
And you’ll know when love starts to fade 
    D          A		     E		 A
You burst into tears at each record that’s played
   D           A	 	E	      A
He sits in the sun, you sulk in the shade
       D		   E			A
You’ll know when the love starts to fade

	 A		   E		  A
You’ll know when the romance is dead
	   D		    A			 E		 A
From the brambles and thorns growing out of your head
D		 A	     E               A
Whenever you touch her she tuts or she sighs
D		 A		     E	     A     E	     A
One kiss goodnight and she’s rolling her eyes, rolling her eyes

   	     A	    E		 A
And you’ll know love starts to fade
     D	   A		 E	  A
That balancing act is no longer made
     D		 A	   E		 A
Like penny stacked high in amusement arcade
     D		   A		      E		    A
It’s not what you’re worth it’s the way that you’re laid
           D             E              A
Yes you’ll know when the love starts to fade

	   Dsus
Like you knew when romance was alive
					E		   Dsus
Each couple you passed they’d smile and high five

Like you’ll know when love’s back on track
E				     Dsus		 E
Uncontrollable laugh at each joke that you crack 
Dsus
Giggle and cackle and throw her head back
E					  Dsus	    E
Her mouth is still smiling, her veins turning black
				    Dsus	    E
Her head is elastic but her neck is all slack

	 A	     E		 A
You’ll know when love’s on the rocks
D		    A		    E		 A
You wearing headphones, him vest and socks
       A	     E        	 A
You’ll know when love’s on the slide
D		  A		   E	     A	   E	     A
Whenever your talking, the kids go outside, (kids go outside)


D		     A	    E
You’ll know when romance is dead
	   D		     A	   E		   A
When the look that you get is as hard as the bread
     D	  A		     E	     A
You open your mouth but your stories are stale 
         D		     A		  E		A
From the front door to back door it’s blowing a gale
       D 	     E 	        A
You’ll know when love starts to fade
