Bite Back chords by Dodie

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)


verse:

G
I hear you laughing in the other room
                              D
Two doors between us, oh it’s morning soon
            C
I rolled my eyes to land on

ten past nine

“oh god”, I gave up
         G
said goodnight, mmm

G
If I could find the strength of fifty men

                      D
Maybe i could go back in again
             C
I’d shrug my shoulders

I’d shake back my hair
Cm
I’d be the girl
G
Who doesn’t care hmm

                  C
you’re in a weird mood
            G
And I could smell it
           E7
why do you bite back
            C
Why are you jealous?

           C
I couldn’t reach you
        G
No, not tonight
         D
I’ll try tomorrow
         D
I’ll try tomorrow

C
Oh let me look inside
G
Cause under all that fire
         D
There’re knots that I can help undo
   C
My dear I’m only trying to help you

C
will you soften to me?
G
will you not let me be
        D
someone else not getting through
   C
My dear I’m only trying
   C
My dear I’m only to help you

G
our conversation walks a fine line
                                 D
I search the room for brows that raise like mine
          C
I seem to be quite used to heavy words

                                  G
Don’t even know why this still hurts hmm

G
and when i come to you and say my peace
D
don’t give me eyes like this is my problem please
C
folded arms and furrowed brows
     Cm                         G
it’s just too late to admit it now mm

                  C
you’re in a weird mood
            G
And I could smell it
           E7
why do you bite back
            C
Why are you jealous?

           C
I couldn’t reach you
        G
No, not tonight
         D
I’ll try tomorrow
         D
I’ll try tomorrow
