E
I can see you standing, honey

With his arms around your body
E C#m

To pack us up and leave me with it
E C#m
Holdin' all this love out here in the hall

A B C#m
I think I've seen this film before

A B C#m
You're not my homeland anymore
B A
So what am I defending now?
B C#m E
You were my town, now I'm in exile, seein' you out

I think I've seen this film before
E C#m E C#m
Ooh, ooh, ooh

E
I can see you starin', honey
C#m
Like he's just your understudy

Those eyes add insult to injury

Bridge:
C#m B
So step right out, there is no amount
A
Of crying I can do for you
E
All this time
C#m
We always walked a very thin line
B
You didn't even hear me out (You didn't even hear me out)
A
You never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)
E
All this time
C#m
I never learned to read your mind (Never learned to read my mind)
B
I couldn't turn things around (You never turned things around)
A
'Cause you never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)

So many signs, so many signs
A
You didn't even see the signs
