Verse:
C majorC  C7M   FF        G+G    C majorC
Don't talk to me in that familiar way
     C7M      FF   G+G
When the keys are in my hand
C majorC   C7M     FF       G+G     C majorC
Don't say that everything is here to stay
      C7M     FF   G+G
And I must try to understand
  C majorC     A minorAm           DM7
When I'm try-ing not to look into your eyes
  G+G              C majorC
Trying not to listen to your lies
  A minorAm              Dm7Dm7
Trying just to keep hold of myself
       G+G               C majorC  C7M  FF G+G
Oh but it's hard when you leave me on the shelf

Verse:
C majorC  C7M   FF        G+G
You say that I set a path for you to follow
 C majorC  C7M      FF   G+G
And I've already given in
 C majorC  C7M   FF        G+G
But I only meant for you to taste not swallow
 C majorC   C7M      FF      G+G
Where I end is where you must begin
C majorC  A minorAm             Dm7Dm7
So tr-y not to look into their eyes
G+G              C majorC
Try not to listen to their lies
  A minorAm            Dm7Dm7
Try just to keep hold of yourself
         G+G              C majorC  C7M  FF G+G
Oh I know it's hard when they leave you on their shelf


Verse:
C majorC   C7M
She's such a sweet girl
FF      G+G
Free of the taints of this world
C majorC       C7M
Think that's a compliment
   FF        G+G
Don't be so full of sentiment
C majorC           A minorAm
Why you worship sweetness
              Dm7Dm7
What virtue's there in weakness
               G+G          C majorC  C7M  FF G+G
Being pushed about is nothing much to shout about I know


C majorC  A minorAm             Dm7Dm7
So tr-y not to look into their eyes
G+G              C majorC
Try not to listen to their lies
  A minorAm            Dm7Dm7
Try just to keep hold of yourself
         G+G              C majorC  C7M  FF G+G
Oh I know it's hard when they leave you on their shelf
