D#m B Deep in a corner of the night F# C# We were lying in the middle of the road D#m B Counting the planes as they flew by F# C# Inconceivable imagining them go And drunk we set the world to rights As we fell and hit our heads upon the curb You make me laugh until I die Can you think of any better way to choke?
