VERSE 1:
Am Abm6 Am4 Am
No time, no place, to talk about the weather
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
The promise of love is hard to ignore
Am Abm6 Am4 Am
You said the chance wasn't getting any better
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
The labour of love is ours to endure
Am Abm6 Am4 Am
Highest branch on the apple tree
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
It was my favourite place to be
Am Abm6 Am4 Am
I could hear them breaking free
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
But they could not see me
CHORUS 1:

I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse
F F G G C C Am Am
It feels like nothing matters in our private universe
BRIDGE 1:
Am Am Am Am
Am Am Am Am Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
VERSE 2:
I have all I want, is that simple enough?
A whole lot more I'm thinking of
Every night about six o'clock
Birds come back to the pond to talk
Talk to me, birds talk to me
If I go down on my knees
CHORUS 2:
I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse
It feels like nothing matters in our private universe
Feels like nothing matters in our private universe
BRIDGE 2:
Am Am Am Am
C C D5 D5
And it's a pleasure that I have known
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Oooooh...
C C D5 D5 D5 D5
And it's a treasure that I have gained
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Oooooh...

And it's a pleasure that I have known
Am Abm6 Am4 Am Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C

VERSE 3:
It's a tight squeeze but I won't let go
Time is on the table and the dinner's cold

It feels like nothing matters in our private universe
I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse
Feels like nothing matters in our private universe
