Slow 3/4 timing
D
Flogging a rocking Horse getting nowhere
D7 Em
We are a pair to behold
You like a funeral me like a fair
A D
Nobody cares for the show
D
These days the rapids may drag us from here
D7 Em
And I do not care where we go
And you say that love is what we are my dear
A D
But I just pretend not to know
Em
If it's the be all and end all
G
Then come on now love let's make a start
Em7 Em6
When love calls then it's time to play ball
A D
But starting's the easiest part
D
Counting my blessings like stars in the sky
D7 Em
The sleep walking moon watching on
And she's seen how lovers before us have tried
A D
My darling let’s not get it wrong
Em
If it's the be all and end all
G
Then come on now love let's make a start
Em7 Em6
When love calls how sudden the fall
A D
But fallings the easiest part
F#m Bm
I've had love come to nothing before
G A
But it's alright it's alright
F#m Bm
I've welcomed it in and I've shown it the door
Gmaj7 G6 F#7
But it's al - right it's alright
D F#m Bm A
