Gm Eb F
Your accountant called this morning
Cm Gm Ab Gm
There was springtime in his heart
D7 Gm Eb F
He couldn't wait to tell me
Cm Gm Eb Ab/Eb C Fm
How he'd pulled our lives apa - art
Bb6
And the letter from your lawyer
Cm
Lies unopened on the tray
Ab6 Bb6 Eb
I may get around to reading it later today
Gm Eb F
Walking round the lonely rooms
Cm Gm Ab Gm
I see everything the same
D7 Gm Eb F
But suddenly it matters
Cm Bb6 Eb/Db Ab/Eb C Fm
What was purchased in my na - me
Bb6
Whether this or that was paid for
Cm
Belongs to me or you
Ab6 Bb6 Eb
Can the seven years together be divided by two
Abmaj7
It says something for the legal boys
Ab6
But nothing much for us
Cm/G
That all we had together
G7
Is so quickly ended thus
Abmaj7
The legal boys have won again
Ab6
And you and I have lost
Cm/G
They can't tell us how it happened
Ab
But they'll let us know the cost
Bb6 Eb
Oh they'll let us know the cost, oh yeah
Gm Eb F
There's a lot I'd like to tell you
Cm Gm Ab Gm
But I can't get past your guards
Gm Eb F
I don't speak their language
Cm Bb6 Ab/Eb C Fm
And they hold all the ca - rds
Bb6
I would rather call you darling
Cm
Than defendant in the case
Ab6 Bb6
But lovers left here long ago
Eb
And clients took their place
Abmaj7
It says something for the legal boys
Ab6
But nothing much for us
Cm/G
That all we had together
G7
Is so quickly ended thus
Abmaj7
The legal boys have won again
Ab6
And you and I have lost
Cm/G
They can't tell us how it happened
Ab
But they'll let us know the cost
Bb6 Eb
Oh they'll let us know the cost, oh yeah
