VERSE:
~~~~~~
Bsus2Bsus2 B minorBm
The lanes were silent
Dsus2Dsus2 Esus2Esus2 F#F# A5A5 A#5A#5 Bsus2Bsus2
There was nothing, no one, nothing around for miles
Bsus2Bsus2
I doused our friendly venture
Dsus2Dsus2 Esus2Esus2
With a hard-faced three-word gesture
CHORUS:
~~~~~~~
C#m7C#m7 C#7C#7
I started something, I forced you to a zone
D7D7 E7E7 F7F7 F#F#
And you were clearly never meant to go
C#m7C#m7
Hair brushed and parted
C#7C#7
Typical me, typical me, typical me
D7D7
I started something
E7E7 F7F7 F#F# A5A5 A#5A#5 Bsus2Bsus2
And now I'm not too sure
[Repeat Intro/Chorus chords for outro]
