Here we are just trying to be flatmates
E minorEm
Here we are just trying to sophisticate
D MajorD
Be an adult, trying not to fall in love

Here we are just trying to be neighbours

You in bed, me still with the painters
D MajorD
Smoking out the window, at the magpies
A augmentedA G+G
Trying to work out what's the truth and what's the lie

But I took you dancing at the weekend

Tell your folks in bed you had to play

I tried to make you feel like the kids are playing pretend
D MajorD
I'm not saying that we can't be running mates
A augmentedA
You run too fast for me, I try to keep the pace
G+G G minorGm
What I lack in speed I make up for in the way I move my hips
D MajorD
And the way the sun comes out when I move my lips

So you won't want to miss
E minorEm
All the shapes that can make

Come around to me, I'll be your lock and fold
A augmentedA
Tell me all your dirt, I'll never tell a soul
G+G
Tell me over steaming mac n cheese
G minorGm
Hold the tray upon your knees, we can listen to the radio
D MajorD
I'm not saying I will cook you dinner
A augmentedA
Stick with me and you'll only end up thinner
G+G
There are other ways to fill you up
G minorGm
I can look into your soul, I can feed you all the love
D MajorD
I’ve been saving up
A minorAm
Oh, and don't get me wrong
E minorEm
I'm digging my way in

I just like the game we’re playing

Forget the truth, forget the lie for the moment you’re my best friend
