Intro: Cm - Fm - Gm - Gm7  
       G# - Fm - D# - Gm

G#                       Fm
This is the song I never wrote for you
                  Gm
I know I said I would
                                   Bb
Couldn't bring myself to start it then
                     G#
But maybe now I should

I didn't need to write it then
Fm
When I was by your side
D#
That's the irony of love, my dear
Bb
I never even tried

Fm
It begins with how I fell for you
G#
Saw myself in your eyes
Gm
I should have known how that would lead
Bb
To my own sweet demise


Well they said
Fm 
He's gonna get his fucking head kicked in
G#
He's gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Gm
Darling
Bb
Oh darling


G#                       Fm
This is the song I never wrote for you
                Gm
I know I said I would
                             Bb
It might have turned out differently
                          
If things had worked out good
G#
By your side the music rose
Fm
My heart would leap and bound
D#
And the chilling fear that maybe I
Bb
Could lose what I had found

Fm
When the hate and hurt and poisoned tongues
G#
Rang out across the town
Gm
And then I guess the music stopped
Bb
When you were sleeping round
Fm
He's gonna get his fucking head kicked in
G#
He's gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Gm
Darling
Bb
Oh darling


G#                       Fm
This is the song I never wrote for you
                  Gm                     Bb
I know I said I would, It makes no sense to start it now

It won't do any good
G#                         
Without them now but in my ears
Fm
A hangover subsides
Gm
You know I could have married you
   Bb
I suppose we never tried

     Fm
Not gonna get my fucking head kicked in
G#
Not gonna die in a fucking loony bin
Gm
Darling
Bb
Oh darling
