D F#m  Em G
Well we wDere an odd couple you and I 
In our strange F#mand original attire 
I tEmhought, I thought it was love at first sight 
My mother, Gmy mother, she shivered with spiteD  
Well I couDldn't tell if you were boy or girl 
My mind F#mwas in such a swirl 
EmIt was a case of grist to the mill
True love Ggrows, it grows oh where it will     (E--0--2--4--7---)

N.C (But they are the same as the first verse)
Well, you picked me up at the station 
After my backstreet operation 
You broke me, you broke the painful news 
You dumped me, you dumped me for a pretty young muse   D
So the lessoDns they are there to learn 
My scF#mars are caused by cigarette burns 
EmI have no mirrors and I spend my days
