INTRO:

  G         D      C      D

I think to myself when we kiss

     Em         B        Em D

Your husband is watching

         G            D/F#      C       D/F#

From his portrait his eyes are looking down

       Em          B        Em D C

On the slipper and stocking

                 Am

Back against the bookcase

G             Em    C

Down upon the floor

            Am

Empty the decanter

F              D    G

Slur again for more





REFRAIN:

    D      G     D     G     D           Em      B     G

His house,   Her home,   our future in a lover's world

    D    G     D      G     D              Em       B     C Am

Her son,   Her heart,   her love for me, tomorrow's world





  G            D    C         D

I laugh with myself when your son

   Em          B     Em D

Is watching cartoons

       G            D/F#    C     D/F#

In the morning he's looking up to me

           Em         B    Em D C

When we're in the bathroom

                Am

Sees me kissing mother

G                Em  C

Doesn't blink an eye

             Am

Asks alot of questions

F               D    G

Answers hard to find





REFRAIN

I talk to myself when I'm drunk

    Em           B     Em D

And she is still sober

G            D/F#    C     D/F#

Words are so few and far between

   Em            B        Em D C

My arms reach to hold her

               Am

Hungry for the love

     G                Em    C

I've rescued from the grave

                   Am

The past is just a portrait

    F                D     G

The future's ours to frame
