The Special Two - Missy Higgins
Tuning: Standard, E A D G B E
[Verse 1]
I've hardly be
en outside my
room in days,
'cause i don't
feel that i d
eserve the sun
shine's rays.
The darkness h
elped until th
e whiskey wore
away,
It was then I
realised the c
onscience neve
r fades.
When you're yo
ung you have t
his image of y
our life,
that you'll be
scrupulous an
d one day even
make a wife.
And you'll mak
e boundaries y
ou never dream
to cross,
and if you hap
pen to you wak
#
e completely l
ost.
[Bridge]
But I will fig
ht for you,
be sure that i
will fight un
til we're the
special two on
ce again.
[Chorus]
And we will on
ly need each o
ther we'll ble
ed together, o
ur hands will
not be
taught to hold
another's,
'Cause we're t
he special two
.
And we could o
nly see each o
ther, we'll br
eathe together
, these arms w
ill
not be taught
to need anothe
r's,
'Cause we're t
he special two
.
[Verse 2]
I remember som
eone old once
said to me,
that 'lies wil
l lock you up
with truth the
only key'.
But I was comf
ortable and wa
/
rm inside my s
hell,
and couldn't s
ee this place
could soon bec
ome my hell.
So is it bette
r to tell and
hurt or lie to
save their fa
ce?
Well i guess t
he answer is d
on't do it in
the first plac
e.
I know i'm not
deserving of
your trust fro
m you right no
w,
Oh, but if by
chance you cha
nge your mind
you know i wil
l not let you
down
'Cause we were
the special t
wo, and will b
e again.
[Chorus]
And we will on
ly need each o
ther we'll ble
ed together, o
ur hands will
not be
taught to hold
another's,
'Cause we're t
he special two
.
And we could o
nly see each o
ther, we'll br
eathe together
, these arms w
ill
not be taught
to need anothe
r's,
'Cause we're t
he special two
.
I step outside
my minds eye'
s for a minute
And i look ove
r me like a do
ctor looking f
or disease or
something
that could ease the pain.
But nothing cu
res the hurt y
ou,
Bring on by yo
urself,
Just rememberi
ng, just remem
bering how we
were
[Final Chorus]
And we will on
ly need each o
ther we'll ble
ed together, o
ur hands will
not be
taught to hold
another's,
'Cause we're t
he special two
.
And we could o
nly see each o
ther, we'll br
eathe together
, these arms w
ill
not be taught
to need anothe
r's,
'Cause we're t
he special two
.
