Perfect circle – Katie Melua

Intro:
Am Bm  Am Bm  Am Bm Am


Am                    C
1. A mask is easily placed,
G                          F
on a betrayed and broken face.
Dm                       Am                          G
A disguise to hide the past, when you mapped out my skin
F
and made the memories last.

          Am               C
2. Some things are never erased,
            G                  F
and I have run when I've been chased,
Dm                         Am
by recollections of you and me,
                  G             F
falling off our homemade castle.

C                           E                 Am           F
And even when I'm walking straight, I always end up in a perfect circle,
       C                     E        Am                 F
oh, I try, but I just can't wait, to break out of this perfect circle.
       G                F            Dm                G
'Cos giving into old temptation, is like that common twitch,
          G                F                                           C
oh, the silly, stupid realisation, the more you scratch, the more you itch.

               Am               C
3. Why am I fighting, what's it for ?
              G                F
Must let my mask drop to the floor.
     Dm               Am
My scars I shouldn't hide
           G                    F
from the people who are on my side,

      Am                      C
4. Rolling up my sleeves to fight against,
          G                               F
all the things I locked up and all the things I fenced.
          Dm            Am
but it's time to let it out,
                    G                F
so we can build a brand new castle.

+CHORUS + D F# Bm G(2x)

      D                      F#                Bm          G
And even when I'm walking straight, I always end up in a perfect circle,
       D                     F#       Bm                 G
oh, I try, but I just can't wait, to break out of this perfect circle.
       A                G            Em                 A
'Cos giving into old temptation, is like that common twitch,
          A               G                                             D
oh, the silly, stupid realisation, the more you scratch, the more you itch.
+ D ~ Dm ~
                 Dm                  Dm ~~
+ The more you scratch the more you itch.
