The Beths - Expert In A Dying Field

[Intro]
G# F# C#
G# F# C#

[Verse]
G# F#
Can we erase our history
C#
Is it as easy as this
G# F#
Plausible deniability
C#
I swear I’ve never heard of it
C# D#
And I can close the door on us
G# C#
But the room still exists
G#
And I know you’re in it

[Verse]
G# F#
Hours of phrases I’ve memorised
C#
Thousands of lines on the page
G# F#
All of my notes in a desolate pile
C#
I haven’t touched in an age
C# D#
And I can burn the evidence
G# C#
But I can’t burn the pain
G#
And I can’t forget it

[Chorus]
D# C# Fm G#
How does it feel to be an expert in a dying field
D# C# Fm G#
How do you know it’s over when you can’t let go, you can’t let go
C# D# Fm G# C#
You can’t stop, can’t rewind, love is learned over time
A#m C#m G#
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field
G# F# C#
How does it, how does it feel
G# F# C#

[Verse]
G# F#
The city is painted with memory
C#
The water will never run clear
G# F#
The birds and the bees and the flowers and trees
C#
They know that we’re both been here
C# D#
And I can flee the county
G# C#
For the worst of the year
G#
But I’ll come back to it

[Chorus]
D# C# Fm G#
How does it feel to be an expert in a dying field
D# C# Fm G#
How do you know it’s over when you can’t let go, you can’t let go
C# D# Fm G# C#
You can’t stop, can’t rewind, love is learned over time
A#m C#m G#
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field

[Bridge]
G# G# G# G#
How does it, how does it feel

[Verse]
G# F#
Can we erase our history
C#
Is it as easy as this
G# F#
Maybe in other realities
C#
The road never took this twist
C# D#
And I can close the door on us
G# C#
But the room still exists

C# C# C# C# C#
(x2)

[Chorus]
D# C# Fm G#
How does it feel
D# C# Fm G#
How do you know
C# D# Fm G# C#
You can’t stop, can’t rewind, love is learned over time
A#m C#m G# A#
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field
C# C#m G# G# G# G# G#
An expert in a dying field
