Lucy Kaplansky - The Thief


CAPO: 5th Fret


    C      F
We were sitting in a café
     Am               G
You were listening like you had nothing better to do
     C         F
You were feigning interest badly
    Am       G
I guess interest is too hard for you

     C        F
I stopped talking and just watched you
      Am         G
Watched the way your mouth made faces at me
      C          Em
Watched the way your eyes looked through me
      F            G
Looking for something new you could take from me


CHORUS:
  C        Em7  F
And I know what you are
           C        G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C        Em7
I know what you are
     F            G
And everything in the world does not belong to you


INTERLUDE: C Am F G  C Am F G

    C        F
All the things you ever gave me
     Am           G
Were just scraps you didn't want anyway
    C       F
All the people you discarded
         Am                G
Well I guess you never thought you might want them back some day


     C        F
I've been loyal, I've been honest
Am             G
Tell you the truth, I don't know what for
      C         Em
I've knelt down with all the others
     F     G
Well, I'm not on my knees anymore


CHORUS:
  C        Em7  F
And I know what you are
           C        G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C        Em7
I know what you are
     F            G         C
And everything in the world does not belong to you
       F  G
Not you, not you


INTERLUDE: C Am F G


BRIDGE:
   Bb      F      C
Last night in the dark, in my mirror

I thought I saw you
      F
I threw the mirror on the floor
    Dm      Em      F      G
It kept breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking


CHORUS:
  C        Em7  F
And I know what you are
           C        G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C        Em7
I know what you are
     F            G
And everything in the world does not belong to you


CHORUS:
C        Em7  F
I know what you are
           C        G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C        Em7
I know what you are
     F            G
And everything in the world does not belong to you
C      Em7
Not me, not him, not her
  F      G          C
Not every single thing in the world
      Em7
Not me, not him, not her
  F      G          C
Not every single thing in the world


OUTRO:

(I know what you are)
      Em7
Not me, not him, not her
  F         G    C
Not everything in the world
