Tom: Em
Em
[Verse 1]
Em
Who made it heaven
Em C
Who made your dinner
C B
And polished the silver (ware)
Em
Who saw the warnings
Em C
The flames in the distance
C
And still just didn’t care
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
Even us flickering
G Em
Is the prettiest thing
C
I’ll keep my mouth shut
B
But if anyone asks
[Chorus]
Em
You were the match
Em
In this paper house of mine
C
You came in as a guest and then
Am B
You left nothing behind
Em
Why’d my perfect match
Em
Just leave me high and dry
Em C Am
We always worked on paper, always thought that we’d be fine
B Em
In this paper house of mine
[Verse 2]
Em
You fit the picture
Em C
Then ripped it to pieces
C B Em
I guess that I wasn’t a-ware, ware, ware
Em
I’m a notch on your bedpost
Em C
And I don’t deserve this
C
Yeah you just didn't care
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
Even us flickering
G Em
Is the prettiest thing
C
I’ll keep my mouth shut
B7
But if anyone asks
[Chorus]
Em
You were the match
Em
In this paper house of mine
C
You came in as a guest and then
C Am
You left nothing behind
B Em
Why’d my perfect match
Em
Just leave me high and dry
Em C Am
We always worked on paper, always thought that we’d be fine
B Em
In this paper house of mine
[Interlude]
Em C Em C
[Bridge]
Em C
If it all burns down tonight
C
You’re gonna stay inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
Even us flickering
G Em
Is the prettiest thing
C
I’ll keep my mouth shut
C B B7
But if anyone asks, asks, asks
[Chorus]
Em
You were the match
Em
In this paper house of mine
C
You came in as a guest and then
C Am
You left nothing behind
B Em
Why’d my perfect match
Em
Just leave me high and dry
Em C Am B
We always worked on paper, always thought that we’d be fine
Em B Em
In this paper house of mine
