Chords from the songbook, mostly

By Elvis Costello 
 
INTRO: 
Dm  C  G  Dm  C  G   
 
F G          D 
I would have waited all my life  
D                                  G          A 
Just to make love out of something other than spite  
C       G        Gm         A  
But the beauty is the beast you're baiting  
Dm                         G 
Should really be worth the waiting  
 
Em                   A     
You do something ver - y special to  
Em      A 
Mr. Average  
Em                B 
Now the lamb lies with the lion  
F    A      Dm    C   G        Dm C G 
He's just a lit - tle savage  
F   G      D                     G A  
And so you turn your back on me  
D               F#m        Gm        C              G 
And all the hot air that only echoes stale tobacco  
 
F G           D 
Actions speak louder now than words  
(By just a fraction) 
D                                   G        A              C 
What's the use of saying I love you when I'm drinking to distraction  
            G      Gm 
We save our sanity  
   A                    F 
By saying such and such  
          Db+ 
After all its been discussed  
F           G 
You say you must be touched  
 
(chorus)
