Still Life by Men at Work 

Capo 1st Fret

Intro: D  F  Gm  D  Bb

D                 Am             D    Am
There's a picture in the hall, I know
D               Am                   D     Am
and it's from a time when feelings showed
C                        Bb
though I hold it close before my eyes
C                    Bb
my heart refuses to see.

Bb                          Am
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
C                                  Bb
but there is something you don't understand
                                Am
through the times when two were one completely
C                          Bb
there was another in this well laid plan.

D                       Am                D    Am
This corridor seems to stretch for years ahead
D                       Am                     D    Am
but patient hearts cannot match times steady tread
C                        Bb
is this the threshold of a fantasy?
C                     Bb
is there still life at all?

Bb                         Am
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
C                                   Bb
but there is something you don't understand
                                 Am
through the times when two were one completely
C                                  Bb
there was another in this well laid plan... Best laid plan of ours.

C                    Gm
Watering the garden, some comfort for the twilight years
       Bb        C         Bb
still, life never lingers, it marches past our veil of tears
                          C
a moment's all we've got, to have and to hold
Gm                                            C - D
don't slip, don't blink, don't turn your head.

D           Am       D     Am
With a photographic memory
D                 Am                 D   Am
I could live in a time that used to be
C                          Bb
is this the threshold of a fantasy?
C                      Bb
is there still life at all?

Bb                          Am
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
C                                  Bb
but there is something you don't understand
                               Am
through the times when two were one completely
C                             Bb
there was another in this well laid plan.

Bb                          Am
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
C                                Bb
but there is something you don't understand
                            Am
there was a time when I was won completely
C                         Bb
our emotions they got out of hand...
