[Tone]Capo [D]on 2nd fret
 
[Verse1]
 
I’ve got no [G]money in my hands or my coat or my pocket
[Bm]Wont get to space cos I h[A]haven’t got a rocket
But I’ve [G]air in my lungs
Eyes in my sockets
And a [D]heart that beats
Like a [A]tap that leaks
In the n[G]night when you haven’t got a plumber who can stop it
J[Bm]Jack in a box with[A]without a key to lock it
Well this [F#m]boat may sink but I’m n[G]not gonna rock it
Cos the s[A]sea doesn’t know my n[Bm]name
Yeah the [F#m]boat may sink but I’m [G]not gonna rock it
Cos the s[A]sea doesn’t know my n[D]name
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Well if you c[G]can’t get what you love
You [D]learn to love the t[A]things you’ve got
If you c[G]can’t be what you want
You l[D]learn to be the t[A]things you’re not
If you ca[G]can’t get what you need
You l[Bm]learn to need the th[A]things that stop you dreaming [G] [Bm]
All the t[A]things that stop you dr[D]dreaming
 
 
[Verse2]
 
Well I’ve got n[G]no ones word and no bodies promise
N[Bm]Not a lot to show but this bo[A]book full of sonnets
And my li[G]liver may be fucked but my heart is honest
And my [D]word is true
Like the s[A]sky is blue
In the s[G]summer time when everybody gets on it
[Bm]Warm our skins and get s[A]sunburnt from it
And our [F#m]eyes shine bright like a [G]sky full of comets
that s[A]shoot like silver [Bm]trains
Yeah our e[F#m]eyes shine bright like a s[G]sky full of comets
that s[A]shoot like silver [D]trains
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Well if you c[G]can’t get what you love
You [D]learn to love the t[A]things you’ve got
If you c[G]can’t be what you want
You l[D]learn to be the t[A]things you’re not
If you ca[G]can’t get what you need
You l[Bm]learn to need the th[A]things that stop you dreaming [G] [Bm]
All the t[A]things that stop you dr[D]dreaming
 
Well if you c[G]can’t get what you love
You [D]learn to love the t[A]things you’ve got
If you c[G]can’t be what you want
You l[D]learn to be the t[A]things you’re not
If you ca[G]can’t get what you need
You l[Bm]learn to need the th[A]things that stop you dreaming [G] [Bm]
All the t[A]things that stop you dr[D]dreaming
All the th[A]things that stop you dr[G]dreaming
