The law of diminishing marginal returns

VERSE 1
F                        Am                 C               Dm
First hours in the club were the best hours ever
F                Am                     Dm          C
I knew right then that it could never get better

Surrounded by friends it was a night to remember
We danced around the fire in the glow of the embers

That's when I met her and now I can see
I should have left then with a golden memory, it is

CHORUS
      C        F              Am         Dm
The law of diminishing marginal returns
       C         F            Am          C
The law of diminishing marginal returns

The law of diminishing marginal returns
The law of diminishing marginal returns

(Twice round instrumental)

VERSE 2
First times we made love they were the best times ever
I knew right then that it would never get better
We had long wild nights and wide crazy days
Everything was good and new in our ways
But when the honeymoon went down and the hot sun came up
It was glaringly obvious that enough was enough, it was

CHORUS

VERSE 3
To make it alright we thought we'd move in together
The first days together were the best days ever
Building a home we were fresh we were keen
But soon we settled into a depressing routine
Straight home from work and wallow in TV
Until we hated everything and neither of us could see, it was

CHORUS

MIDDLE
Am
It all happened way too fast
C
Love isn't meant to last
Am
We all look better off in the past
Dm
There's no shame in starting again

CHORUS
