Hmi               A                                  Hmi    
So you never knew love until you crossed the line of grace
Hmi                       A                                  Hmi
And you never felt wanted till you had someone slap your face
Hmi               A                             Hmi   
So you never felt alive until you almost wasted away
                                      
Hmi                                     
You had to win, you couldn?t just pass
A                       Emi               
The smartest ass at the top of the class
Hmi                                    
Your flying colours, your family tree
A                                
And all your lessons in history

Hmi     
Please
Please
Please 
A                      
get up off your knees
Please, please, please, leave me out of this


And you never knew how low you?d stoop to make that call
And you never knew what was on the ground 
Till they made you crawl
So you never knew that that the heaven you keep you stole
Your Catholic blues, your convent shoes
Your stick-on tattoos, now they?re making news
Your holy war, your northern star
Your sermon on the mount from the boot of your car
Please, please, please get up off your knees
Please, please, please leave me out of this please

   Hmi               A       Hmi    
So love is hard, and love is tough
    Hmi     A               Emi      Hmi 
But love is not what you?re thinking of

Hmi                          A  
September, streets capsizing, 
A                      Hmi    
Spilling over down the drain
Hmi                       A           
Shards of glass splinters like rain 
A                       Hmi        
But you could only feel your pain
Hmi                      A        
October, talking getting nowhere
A                             
November, December, remember
Hmi                          
Are we just starting again?

Please, please, please get up off of your knees
Please, please, please, please

So love is bigger than us
But love is not what you?re thinking of
It?s what lovers deal, it?s what lovers steal
You know I?ve found it hard to receive
Cause you, my love, I could never believe
