The toll that you take with the mess that you make,
C F
In my heart and my house, in my heart and my house,
C G
In my heart and my house.
C F C
You messed up my heart like you messed up my house,
F Em
You look like an angel and live like a louse,
Am Em
As I wade knee deep through your debris and dirt,
Am Em
Just hoovering up all the pain and the hurt,
Am Em
My best china plates that you busted apart,
F G C G
With the same lack of care as you busted my heart.
C F C F
The toll that you take with the mess that you make,
C F
In my heart and my house, in my heart and my house,
C G
In my heart and my house.
C F C
The fridge is now a zoo full of maggots and worms,
F Em
I gave you my love, all you gave me were germs,
Am Em
The half eaten food, decaying and cold,
Am Em
Has left on my heart an emotional mould,
Am Em
And as I become your love affair's cleaner,
F G C G
Your memory rots away and gets greener.
C F C F
The toll that you take with the mess that you make,
C F
In my heart and my house, in my heart and my house,
C G
In my heart and my house.
C F C F
And now as I wake, has there been an earthquake,
C F
In my heart and my house, in my heart and my house,
C C7
In my heart and my house.
F C
With tears in my eyes, I scrub away your memory from my room,
Em
But to dislodge the stains that you left on my heart,
F G
I would need a whole mountain of Harpic and Zoom.
C F C F
The toll that you take with the mess that you make,
C F
In my heart and my house, in my heart and my house,
C G
In my heart and my house.
C F C F
And now as I shake, has there been an earthquake,
C F
In my heart and my house, in my heart and my house,
C
In my heart and my house.
