Liner Notes

The title may have been clickbait for anyone familiar with my output :). Don't worry though, it's not a love song. This didn't go in the direction I intended at all, instead it turned out to be about... well, you'll work it out.

It's an 8 string baritone #ukulele #live_from_the_sofa #nerd_folk thing. #fuc

Lyrics

[G][D][Em][C]
[C][D]

[G]Ready with the [D]punchline while you're [C]half way through the [D]joke
[C]Throwing out the [G]spoilers while they're [C]naming all the [D]tropes
[G]Haters [D]shrug and [Em]sneer
At your [C]latest bright i[D]dea

[G]Nothing is o[D]riginal, they [C]say it's all been been [D]done
[C]Say that there is [G]nothing new [C]underneath the [D]sun
[G]Shakesepeare [D]did it [Em]fine
No [C]need to waste your [D]time

Well if [G]you can't tell a [D]story that some[Em]body else has [C]told
[G]I know of a [C]story that is [Em]surely getting [D]old
So you're [G]only going to [D]have to bare some[C]body else's [Em]soul
And you'll [C]never have to [Cm]write another [G]love song

[C][D]

[G]Who would want to [D]know it when it [C]happens every [G]day
[C]Is there any [G]more that any[C]body else can [D]say?
[G]All emotions [D]already ex[Em]pressed
So [C]just let a robot do the [D]rest

If [G]you can't tell a [D]story that some[Em]body else has [C]told
Well [G]I know of a [C]story that is [Em]surely getting [D]old
So you're [G]only going to [D]have to bare some[C]body else's [Em]soul
And you'll [C]never have to [Cm]write another [G]love song

[C][D]

But [Em]even if it's [Bm]true, even [Em]if it's nothing [Bm]new
There's [C]nobody can tell the story [Em]quite the same as [D]you

If [G]you can't tell a [D]story that some[Em]body else has [C]told
Well [G]I know of a [C]story that is [Em]surely getting [D]old
So you're [G]only going to [D]have to bare some[C]body else's [Em]soul
And you'll [C]never have to [Cm]write another [G]love song

[G]Time to put your [D]headphones on and [Em]swipe across the [C]]screen
[G]Plug into your [C]terminal and [Em]run the sub[D]routine
[G]Ready now on [D]streaming from the [C]way iFeel ma[Em]chine
Where [C]no-one needs to [Cm]write another [G]love song?

[G][D][C][Em]
And im[C]agine there's a [Cm]world with no more [G]love songs
