Borrowing chords by Halsey

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

Play around with the strumming pattern as you like, this is just the way I play it.

G: 3-2-0-0-3-3
G/F#: 2-0-0-0-3-3
Cadd9: x-3-2-0-3-3

I'm not too sure about the chord name of G/F# (please correct me if I'm wrong!), but that's the way
I play it.

G+G G/F# Cadd9Cadd9 x2

G+G             G/F#
You're probably sitting at a bar
        Cadd9Cadd9
Fingers loosely cradling a glass
G+G            G/F#
I'm miles from where you are
            Cadd9Cadd9
I can't remember when I saw you last

G*           G/F#*
We both have so-called responsibilities
Cadd9Cadd9
And others to answer to tomorrow
G+G                G/F#
But, right now, I'm begging you to be my safety
Cadd9Cadd9
The kind of love I can't return

But I'm going to borrow

G+G
Your eyes meet mine
G/F#          Cadd9Cadd9
The lights are playing shadows right down to your collar
G+G       G/F#
Your love is calling
Cadd9Cadd9
I'm praying you'll do anything to stall her

G+G     G/F#
I'm sorry, darling
      Cadd9Cadd9
I know he's yours

I know you make him breakfast

And fit between his arms

G*              G/F#
In turn of borrowing a perfect man
           Cadd9Cadd9
I'm borrowing a broken love

G+G     G/F#
I'm sorry, darling
      Cadd9Cadd9
I know he's yours

I know you wear his class ring

And I don't mean you any harm

G+G               G/F#
In turn of borrowing a perfect man
Cadd9Cadd9
I'm borrowing a broken love

G+G G/F# Cadd9Cadd9 x2

G+G         G/F#
Your laughing offers some honest conversation
Cadd9Cadd9
Catch me in the cracks between your crooked smile
G+G        G/F#
Your words are more like illustrations
(Stop strumming)
Toss your head back
Cadd9Cadd9
But I know you'll stay awhile

G+G
Your eyes meet mine
G/F#          Cadd9Cadd9
The lights are playing shadows right down to your collar

G+G              G/F#
In turn of borrowing a perfect man
           Cadd9Cadd9
I'm borrowing a broken love

G+G       G/F#
Your love is calling
Cadd9Cadd9
I'm praying you'll do anything to stall her


G+G               G/F#
In turn of borrowing a perfect man
Cadd9Cadd9
I'm borrowing a broken love

A minorAm   Cadd9Cadd9       G+G      D MajorD
Tell me how can a heavy heart be so empty
A minorAm         Cadd9Cadd9        G+G        D MajorD
You left all your baggage on my steps when you went and left me


G+G     G/F#
I'm sorry, darling
      Cadd9Cadd9
I know he's yours

I know you make him breakfast

And fit between his arms

G+G                G/F#
In turn of borrowing my perfect man
            Cadd9Cadd9
I'm borrowing your broken love

G+G      G/F#
I'm sorry, darling
      Cadd9Cadd9
I know he's yours
(Stop strumming)
I know you keep him close
    (Continue)
And I don't mean you any harm

G+G               G/F#*
In turn of borrowing a perfect man
           Cadd9*
