Gm Cm D   (2x)


Gm			     Cm
What is that look upon your face
           D                           Gm
A simple mood, or have I fallen from grace
Gm                             Cm
Don't you tell me nothing is wrong
               D                        Gm
but just how long should this be goin' on

Eb     D        Gm
Is the sky too grey, did your milk taste bad today
Eb      D      Gm                              Cm
Did I fail in bed, was it something I have said
                          D
Was it something I have said...

Gm         D          Gm
Here we go on and on again
               Cm              D
The same old game of me to blame, of me to blame
Gm         D                 Gm             Cm
Here I go jumping round your bed, oh stupid me
                    D                                   (Gm  Cm  D 2x)
'cause you're the king, and I'm your puppet on a string


Gm                       Cm
Is it so hard to understand
         D                      Gm
The situation's getting out of hand
Gm                                   Cm
But maybe there's something I have missed
             D                                 Gm
A brand new love, that's why you look so pissed

Eb       D        Gm
Did I drive you mad, am I wearing the wrong hat
Eb        D         Gm                              Cm
Tell me what to do, should I paint the grey sky blue
              D
The grey sky blue...

Gm              D              Gm
I wish I could look into your head
                 Cm                 D
And read your thoughts  but so instead, but so instead
Gm         D          Gm
Here we go on and on again
               Cm                      D
The same old game , where you're the king
                         Gm    Cm    D
And I'm a puppet on a string
