Intro:

G

Verse 1:
G
Laying awake in your bed
          Am
Hiding myself from the things you did
           D
These past months I′ve tried
   D7                  G
To bury my head in the sand
G

Last night I told you I'm out
                  Am
Though part of me wants you still around
    D                 D7
But im not a toy on a string
        G
Just to drag around

Chorus:
               Am
Cause when you call me up
   D
At 2 am
G      D/F#     Em
Crying that you need me again
Am
Fluttering your eyes
    D
And pulling me in
G        D/F#        Em
You sure know how to make me sin
  Am         D
No, I won′t go
            G        D/F#       Em
And I won't fall for it this time
          Am
So you're best to go
     D                      G
Find someone else to string by

Verse 2:
G
Each night I wait for the ring
            Am
Of my telephone laying next to me
            D
You lie and say you′ve changed
         D7                   G
But your voice still comforts me
     G
Lord send me away from this woman or planet
   Am
I′d gladly aboard the next rocket

If I'm honest
       D                               D7            G
′Cause I can't escape the devil that′s whispering to me

And won't let me leave

Chorus:
               Am
Cause when you call me up
   D
At 2 am
G      D/F#     Em
Crying that you need me again
Am
Fluttering your eyes
    D
And pulling me in
G        D/F#        Em
You sure know how to make me sin
  Am         D
No, I won′t go
            G        D/F#       Em
And I won't fall for it this time
          Am
So you're best to go
     D                      G
Find someone else to string by
          Am
So you're best to go
     D                      G
Find someone else to string by
