Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
[Verse 1]
D
They say we're moving to Phase Three
F#m
And everything's opening gradually
G
Shops, hotels and pizza parlours
A7
Soon pubs, clubs and barbers
[Verse 2]
D
And up to now I had a perfect excuse
F#m
For being borderline recluse
G
But lockdown rules are being reverted
A7 A#m(maj7)
And that's bad news for the introverted
[Verse 3]
D
Social gatherings I've been dreading
F#m
Like Mick's stag and Ciara's wedding
G
Avoiding nightclubs not a chance
A7
I'll probably even have to dance
[Verse 4]
D
Ducking and diving out of invitations
F#m
Trying to avoid everyone's attentions
G
I like my friends, and they're good fun
A7
I just don't like groups of more than one
[Verse 5]
D
But they'll ask me and I'll have to go
F#m
'Cause I'm socially awkward and I can't say "no"
G
For the last five months I didn't have to lie
Gm
There really was a chance that I could die
D Gm A7
I had the perfect excuse!
N.C.
We were in lockdown
[Verse 6]
D
Go for drinks with the work crowd
F#m
Awkward silence though the music's loud
G
Beside the guy from IT who never talks
A7
And the girl from accounts going through a divorce
[Verse 7]
D
Sitting in the barber's chair
F#m
"Oh, please don't talk, just cut my hair."
G
Standing, waiting for a coffee
A7
As the barista explains his life philosophy
[Spoken]
"You see, love is like an aura, or a shining light
coming from within. I think if we could harness that..."
"Could I get a flat white?"
[Verse 8]
D
Now I'll have to get dressed properly
F#m
Which causes me anxiety
G
'Cause I like that sweatpants lazy look
Gm
But outside the house you're supposed to give a f*%k
D Gm A7
I'm gonna miss my dressing gown
N.C.
Now we're out of lockdown
[Bridge]
Bm
"A barbecue is overdue!"
E
"I'll be there at 10!" "But it starts at two."
Em Bm
Why the hell did lockdown have to end?
Bm
"Lad's holiday, can we count you in?"
E
"God, I miss social distancing!"
Em Bm
Why the hell did lockdown have to end?
Bm
"Poor old Danny passed away."
E
"Skip the funeral, I'll send a bouquet!"
Em Gm6
Why the hell did lockdown have to end?
[Verse 9]
D
Oh, wouldn't it be just so serene
F#m
To live the rest of my life in a quarantine?
G
I wouldn't have to make up lies
Gm Bbm
Pretend distant relatives had suddenly died
D Gm D
But I've lost the perfect excuse
D
Bring back lockdown
[Spoken outro]
Hey, buddy, what's the craic?
Yeah, big night, can't wait.
I'm gonna get a taxi now.
He's on the way.
I'm here now.
I'm not, I'm in bed
