[F] [C] [Dm] [C] [F] [C] [Dm] [C]
[F]I spy with my little [C]tired eye
Tiny as a [Dm]firefly, a pebble that we picked [C]up last July
[F]Down deep inside your [C]pocket, we almost for[Dm]got it
Does it ever miss [C]Wicklow sometimes?
[chorus]
[F]Ooh, [C]ooh-ooh [Dm]ooh, [C]ooh
[F]They said the end is [C]coming, everyone’s up to [Dm]something
I find myself running [C]home to your sweet [F]nothings
Outside they’re push and [C]shoving, you’re in the kitchen [Dm]humming
All that you ever [C]wanted from me was sweet nothing.

[Closing]
[F]Industry disrupters and [C]soul deconstructors
And [Dm]smooth-talking hucksters out [C]glad-handing each other
And the [F]voices that implore “You [C]should be doing more”
To [Dm]you I can admit, that [C]I’m just too soft for all of it

They said the end is [G]coming (They said the end is coming)
Everyone’s up to [C]something (Everyone’s up to something)
I find myself running [Am]home to your sweet [F]nothings
Outside they’re push and [G]shoving (Outside they’re push and shoving)
You’re in the kitchen [C]humming (You’re in the kitchen humming)
All that you ever [Am]wanted from me was sweet nothing
