      Metaphorically Yours by Ed Harcourt
taken from the album 'From Every Sphere'

Tabbed by Toby Martin
Original song is slightly sharp.


D
Oh baby can't you see 
F#/C#
when you get mad at me 
     Bm	   A/C#   G	  G/F#
your eyes light up your face 

D
Oh baby, just admit 
F#/C#
if both my wrists were slit 
      Bm                A/C#      G	G/F#
you'd bandage them with style and grace 

    Em	     F#m
And it's not over
  G                   A 
I don't think that it will be 
    D		  A/C#  	  Bm	  D/F#
and we are joined at the hip like Siamese twins 
    G
and that's a metaphor 
	D      	        Bm
for the feelings that I store 

Em   D/F#   G	       G/F#
I confess I love you so 
Em   D/F#   G          G/F#
I confess I love you so 
Em   D/F#   G        A
I confess I love you so 
        D
but you know 

D
With you I'm never bored 
F#/C#
yes ma’am, you strike a chord 
     Bm       A/C#       G     G/A
that makes me shiver and mumble 

D
I'm chomping at the bit 
F#/C#
I need my daily fix 
   BM       A/C#       G       G/F#
or my whole world will crumble 

    Em       F#m
And it's not over 
  G                   A
I don't think that it will be 
    D             A/C#            Bm      D/F#
and we are joined at the hip like Siamese twins 
    G
and that's a metaphor 
        D               Bm
for the feelings that I store 

Em   D/F#   G	       G/F#
I confess I love you so 
Em   D/F#   G          G/F#
I confess I love you so 
Em   D/F#   G        A
I confess I love you so 
        D
but you know 

D
Come wrap your arms around 
F#/C#
the man who's back in town 
    Bm       A/C#      G
and loves to watch you smile 

D
Don't know if I should laugh or cry 
F#/C#
with you sleeping by my side 
  Bm       A/C#        G    G/F#
I hear the silence for miles 

    Em       F#m
And it's not over 
  G                   A
I don't think that it will be 
    D             A/C#            Bm      D/F#
and we are joined at the hip like Siamese twins 
    G
and that's a metaphor 
        D               Bm
for the feelings that I store 

Em   D/F#   G	       G/F#
I confess I love you so 
Em   D/F#   G          G/F#
I confess I love you so 
Em   D/F#   G        A
I confess I love you so 
        D
but you know
