Tom: E
E A
[Verse 1]
E A
I try to hold my breath but she reads between the lines
E A
Cause she loves cocaine and the nineteen seventy-five
C#m A
And I should know better but I'm blown away
E A
When I can hold my own I might come back someday
E A
Try to make the ends meet in the streets I've never seen
E A
I blurred out lies and I don't know why
C#m A
Get out of my head and I'll get out of yours
C#m A
You've learned so much from the back of your credit card
[Chorus]
E
Should I bide my time?
A
Should I bite my tongue?
E
What if I let go and everything went wrong?
Maybe she's in pain?
A
Maybe she needs love?
C#m
Cause all the love I feel I've got enough for both of us
Have I said too much?
A
Does she think I'm lying?
C#m
Has she ever seen a man struck by lightning?
A
And I'll never ever ever ever ever be the same
[Verse 2]
E A
I try to hold my breath but she reads between the lines
E A
Cos she loves cocaine and the nineteen seventy-five
C#m A
And I should know better but I'm petrified
C#m A
Cause it's only when she's halfway dead that she feels so alive
[Chorus]
E
Should I bide my time?
A
Should I bite my tongue?
E
What if I let go and everything went wrong?
Maybe she's in pain?
A
Maybe she needs love?
C#m
Cause all the love I feel I've got enough for both of us
Have I said too much?
A
Does she think I'm lying?
C#m
Has she ever seen a man struck by lightning?
A
And I'll never ever ever ever ever be the same
[Bridge]
E A
She missed her train she was sat in the front of the car when she laughed I laughed too so infectious
E A
I said you're an addict she called me pretentious for using big words the hypocrisy's tragic
C#m B E
I've lost my lid in the way that she lives
A B
I hate what she takes but I love what she gives me
C#m
My seatbelts on, has the moment gone?
Cause for a second it was magic
E
For a second it was magic
[Chorus]
So I'll take my time
A
And I'll wait my turn
E
And I let her know before I get myself burned
Maybe she needs me
A
Maybe I need her
C#m
With all this second-hand love I've got enough for the both of us
Cause I said too much
A
And she thinks I'm lying
C#m
Has she ever seen a man when he's been set on fire
A
And I'll never ever ever ever ever ever be the same
E
And I'll never see her again
A
And I'll never see her again
C#m
And I'll never see her again
A
Again, again, again
