This is "Celebrate" by the Levellers and is the third single on the "Mouth
to Mouth" album. Like all Levellers songs it is quite easy to play but it
is very enjoyable. The guitar should be capoed on the third fret so it can
be played in D and therefore sound like the CD. If you have any corrections

Not for the first but for the thousandth time yeah

With a little house just made for two
With all the lovely things you can but brand new
You're gonna settle down just the both of you

2nd verse

(Same chords as first verse)
And when the sap first rose back in the days
You thought you'd play it smart
The trail of broken hearts yeah
You said they won't find you. they won't find you
They won't find you just living in a box for two.
Chorus

So when you catch an eye
And your dancing heart starts telling you the lies
You're doing it to survive
What else can hurt so much it makes you cry?
