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
