You're Not The Rule chords by Helen Watson

verse 1
G       A       D
I don't usually play
A      Bm        G
So far out every day
F#m                Bm
But I haven't had a lot on
   G                   D         A
or much to go home for anyway

verse 2
G       A         D
I don't mind if I do
A      Bm        G
Only if you have one too
F#m                Bm
I know where I should be
           G               D         A
But it's much better here with you

Chorus 1
Bm     F#m    G
Mmmh, before riding on this affection
Bm                 F#m               G
I should have been playing it by the book
Bm         F#m          G
Only some bad luck can come of this deception
G
You're not the rule
G            A
You're the exception

verse 3
G    A        D
The notion is over
A            Bm          G
These things never last long
F#m          Bm
You get too close
   G                           D         A
And suddenly feel the need to belong

Bm     F#m    G
Mmmh, before riding on this affection

Only some bad luck can come of this deception

You're the exception

Bridge
Bm   C          G
        Though I know it's not cool
Bm   C          G
        It's a dangerous game
Bm   C          G
        Just me playing the fool
A
You're not the rule

verse 4
G      A        D
Now I really must go
A           Bm           G
Promise you won't tell a soul
F#m               Bm
The whole thing's impossible
G                      D    A
So how're they to know

Verse 5
G       A             D
And the next time we meet
A              Bm          G
Should we just pass on the street
F#m         Bm
I'll ignore it
           G                           D     A
If you're looking in straight through me
