Verse 1:
Bmaj7 G#m7
You called me here on business
D#m7 C#
I can't believe I’m sitting in your room
Bmaj7 G#m7
A real life rock'n'roller
D#m7
Tattoos along your shoulder
C#
My mother wouldn’t like you
Pre-Chorus:
Bmaj7
You're blowing smoke
G#m7
You blink your sleepy eyes
D#m7 C#
Kiss me for the first time
Bmaj7 G#m7
There goes my caution, I inhale your lies
D#m7 C#
You got me paralysed
Chorus:
Bmaj7 G#m7
What were you thinking?
D#m7 C#
Handling a heart of twenty years like that
Bmaj7 G#m7
Twistin' the knife in
D#m7 C#
Just to stitch it up and pat yourself on the back
Verse 2:
Bmaj7 G#m7 D#m7
Your temperamental current, flimsy rеassurance
C#
Cold then keeping me warm
Bmaj7 G#m7
You lay it on so hеavy
D#m7 C#
Then go on and forget me each time that you meet 'the one'
Pre-Chorus:
Bmaj7
You're blowing smoke
G#m7
You blink your sleepy eyes
D#m7 C#
Kiss me for the first time
Bmaj7 G#m7
There goes my caution, I inhale your lies
D#m7 C#
You got me paralysed
Chorus:
Bmaj7 G#m7
What were you thinking?
D#m7 C#
Handling a heart of twenty years like that
Bmaj7 G#m7
Twistin' the knife in
D#m7 C#
Just to stitch it up and pat yourself on the back
Bmaj7 G#m7
Build up my appetite
D#m7
Then you're so scandalized
C#
When I was hungry for more
Bmaj7 G#m7
What were you thinking?
D#m7 C#
Handling a heart of twenty years like that
Interlude:
Bmaj7 G#m7 D#m7 C# x12
Chorus:
Bmaj7 G#m7
What were you thinking?
D#m7 C#
Handling a heart of twenty years like that
Bmaj7 G#m7
Twistin' the knife in
D#m7 C#
Just to stitch it up and pat yourself on the back
Bmaj7 G#m7
Build up my appetite
D#m7
Then you're so scandalized
C#
When I was hungry for more
Bmaj7 G#m7
What were you thinking?
D#m7 C#
Handling a heart of twenty years like that
