[Chorus]
D
You used to be my confidante
D
My underneath-the-staircase friend
D
But I fell out of love with you
D
And brought our romance to an end
G
I played with you throughout the day
D
And told you every secret thought
G
Unlike my other so-called friends
D
You stood beside me as I fought

[Verse 1]
D A D
In your reflected glory I
D G A
Could dream of shining far off lands
Em
Where serpents turn to bits of string
G D
And play like kittens in my hand
[Verse 2]
G
In our imaginary world
D
Where butterflies wear army boots
G
And stomp around the forests
D G
Chanting long lost anthems
D G
Long lost anthems
[Guitar Solo]

You used to be my confidante

My underneath-the-staircase friend

But I fell out of love with you

And brought our romance to an end

I played with you throughout the day

And told you every secret thought

Unlike my other so-called friends

You stood beside me as I fought

You stood beside me as I fought
