Intro:
E MajorE  G# minorG#m  D MajorD  A augmentedA  BB  A augmentedA BB
La  la  la la la


Verse 1:
E MajorE   BB        D MajorD         A augmentedA
Well I guess I'm just here to test your patience
E MajorE   BB     G# minorG#m         A augmentedA
Cause you're so smart my tricks don't work at all
E MajorE  G# minorG#m  D MajorD     A augmentedA
Is it my lack of education?
   BB  C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Just tell me why you never call

Verse 2:
E MajorE      BB       D MajorD      A augmentedA
Behind your symmetry lies a fundamental difference
E MajorE     BB          G# minorG#m         A augmentedA
There are those who own their minds and those who call
E MajorE   G# minorG#m   D MajorD        A augmentedA
No offense but, in between the lines I'm reading
E MajorE    F# minorF#m     G# minorG#m    A augmentedA          BB      A augmentedA BB
You look out for your own, and you're gonna look at me that way


Pre-Chorus:
A augmentedA  E MajorE   BB  A augmentedA BB
And it's true
  A augmentedA     E MajorE
So what can I do?


Chorus:
E MajorE       BB          F# minorF#m
Everything you get's slowing your affection
A augmentedA
(What can I do?)
E MajorE      BB        F# minorF#m
And maybe impress you with a song
A augmentedA
(What can I do?)
E MajorE       BB      C# minorC#m   BB        A augmentedA    BB      A augmentedA BB
I'm trying to minimize the damage done cause there ain't no one like you


Break:
E MajorE  G# minorG#m  D MajorD  A augmentedA

Verse 3:
E MajorE       BB         D MajorD        A augmentedA
I found that postcard from that trip you took to Thailand
E MajorE      BB        G# minorG#m          A augmentedA
I remember studying all the words written in your pretty hand
E MajorE       G# minorG#m      D MajorD        A augmentedA
The little lines and little curls that held a sacred meaning
BB     C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Or so I thought, but I had it wrong


Verse 4:
E MajorE         BB         D MajorD           A augmentedA
Now I'm trying to figure out when it was you gave me these heartworms
E MajorE      BB        G# minorG#m     A augmentedA
I feel them wriggling in my blood, gonna do me harm
E MajorE G# minorG#m   D MajorD        A augmentedA
By now I'd rather lose this losing feeling
E MajorE    F# minorF#m      G# minorG#m
That came on when you cooled off
 A augmentedA              BB      A augmentedA BB
Started treating me in this friendly way


Pre-Chorus:
A augmentedA  E MajorE   BB  A augmentedA BB
And it's true
  A augmentedA     E MajorE
So what can I do?


Chorus:
E MajorE      BB        F# minorF#m
Oh won't you be still for a moment
A augmentedA
(What can I do?)
E MajorE        BB          F# minorF#m
So I can push a feather through your heart
A augmentedA
(What can I do?)
E MajorE       BB      C# minorC#m   BB        A augmentedA    BB      A augmentedA BB  A augmentedA BB  A augmentedA BB
I'm trying to minimize the damage done cause there ain't no one like you

  A augmentedA     E MajorE
So what can I do?


Chorus:
E MajorE      BB     F# minorF#m
When I get lonely to distraction
A augmentedA
(What can I do?)
E MajorE    BB        F# minorF#m
Maybe impress you with a song
A augmentedA
(What can I do?)
E MajorE     BB         C# minorC#m  BB    A augmentedA
No reason waiting around in your saddest dream
     BB    A augmentedA BB
It never came true


Outro:
E MajorE  BB  D MajorD  A augmentedA
La la la la
E MajorE G# minorG#m D MajorD  A augmentedA  BB
