D          A
What there was left of us
                                  D
Was all covered in dust and thick skin
  A
A half-eaten apple

Or the whole Sistine Chapel
                          D
Painted on the head of a pin
  G
A life long love's work

Gone up in a smirk
                                  D
And you didn't even see her waltz in
         A
Now this love is a ghost 

For having played host 
                       D
To the most unoriginal sin

[Verse 2]
       A
At the wedding we smiled
                                D
While some devil played wild violin
     A
Soon after the chapel

She offered me that apple
                                 D
One bite and I was gone with the wind
        G
And you needed no proof

'Cause the whole naked truth
                              D
Was wearing only an infidel's grin
      A
And a proud schoolboy's boast 

For having left his post
                        D
For the most unoriginal sin

[Verse 3]
        A
Now the jukebox is humming
                               D
All the venial shortcomings of men
      A
But I found me this drink

That can finally sink
                                   D
All this guilt I've been wallowing in
      G
Buddy once you get started

Once true love's departed
                         D
You do it over and over again
     A
So tonight I will toast

Just whoever comes close 
                       D
To the most unoriginal sin

       A
Yeah tonight I will toast

Just whoever comes close 
                       D
To the most unoriginal sin
