Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I eat dinner  at the kitchen table
 By the light  that switches on
 I eat leftovers  with mashed potatoes
 No more candlelight
 No more romance
 No more small-talk
 When the hunger's gone
 (repeat this pattern for other verses)
 I eat dinner at the kitchen table
 And I wash it down with pie
 I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
 No more candlelight
 No more romance
 No more small-talk
 When the hunger stops
Never  thought
 That I'd  end up  this way
I  who loved  the sparks
Never  thought my hair'd  be turning to gray
Used  to be  so dark
 So dark
 No more candlelight
 No more romance
 No more small-talk
 When the hunger's gone
 No more candlelight
 No more romance
 No more small-talk
 When the hunger's gone
 When the hunger's gone
 Never thought
 That I'd end up like this
 I who love the night
 Never thought I'd be without a kiss
 No one to turn out the light
 Turn out the light
 I eat dinner at the kitchen table
 By the light of the TV screen
 I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
 No more candlelight
 No more romance
 No more small-talk
 When the plate is clean
 When the hunger's gone
 When the hunger's gone
 thats that. pretty simple im sure you will agree.
