[Intro]
G  D  Em D
G  D  Em D
 
[Verse 1]
G              D   Em              D
I ought to leave / enough hot water
G                    D   Em                   D
For your morning bath, / but I'd not thought I
C
hate to hear you talk that way
                    Am
But I can't bring myself to say I'm
G     D  Em D
sorry
 
[Verse 2]
G                D   Em                D
The past is always / knocking incessant
G                     D   Em              D
Trying to break through / into the present
   C               C
We have to work to keep it out
    C              Am
But I won't be the first to shout it's
G     D  Em  D
over
 
[Chorus]
Am        Em                C
I used to want to plant bombs
       G                 G
at the Last Night of the Proms
C  G
 
    Am         Em
But now you'll find me
         C*           C*
with the baby, in the bathroom,
          C*                           C*           D
With that big shell, listening for the sound of the sea
C  D
 
[Verse 3]
G                     D   Em                D
I steal a kiss from you / in the supermarket
G                       D   Em                D
I walk you down the aisle / you fill my basket
    C                   C
And through it all, the stick I take
   C                Am
Is worth it for the love we make
G  D  Em D
 
[Chorus]
Am        Em                C
I used to want to plant bombs
       G                 G
at the Last Night of the Proms
C  G
 
    Am         Em
But now you'll find me
         C*           C*
with the baby, in the bathroom,
          C*                           C*           D
With that big shell, listening for the sound of the sea
C            D
The baby and me
 
[Verse 4]
G              D   Em              D
I stayed in bed, / alone, uncertain
G              D  Em                  D
Then I met you, / you drew the curtain
 
[Outro]
    C                G*
The sun came up, the trees began to sing and
Am
light shone in on everything I
G        D  Em D
love you
    C                G*
The sun came up, the trees began to sing and
Am
light shone in on everything I
G        D  Em D  G
love you
