Verse 1:
C majorC           Fmaj7Fmaj7     Am7Am7        B/C
I check that I've got all my things before I leave the house
    A minorAm
Because when I'm gone I'm never coming back
    E minorEm               Fmaj7Fmaj7       G+G      C majorC
I'm not being melodramatic, it's just I neither have your number or a key
C majorC        Fmaj7Fmaj7         Am7Am7      B/C
An evening spent pretending that we're just becoming friends
  A minorAm
Or this goes any further than going back
    E minorEm              Fmaj7Fmaj7     G+G       C majorC
I'm not being pessimistic, it's just you and I were never meant to be

Chorus:
     FF       E minorEm       G+G
It isn't love, it isn't love, it isn't love
  C majorC      B/C       A minorAm
But every time I kind of wish it was
FF         G+G        C majorC
Yes, every time I kind of wish it was

Verse 2:
C majorC             Fmaj7Fmaj7    Am7Am7        B/C
I've picked up this silly habit in the last few years of going out
    A minorAm
In the evenings with my friends into the town
  E minorEm              Fmaj7Fmaj7     G+G       C majorC
Of packing a spare t-shirt in my bag in case I do not make it home
C majorC          Fmaj7Fmaj7      Am7Am7          B/C
It's pathetic and I know it, but the truth is there've been mornings
      A minorAm
I've proved prudent taking toothpaste to the pub
      E minorEm                 Fmaj7Fmaj7      G+G      C majorC
But that's precious little comfort against the knowledge of the person I've become

Chorus:
     FF       E minorEm       G+G
It isn't love, it isn't love, it isn't love
  C majorC      B/C       A minorAm
But every time I kind of wish it was
   FF      G+G        A minorAm
Yes, every time I kind of wish it was
     FF        G+G        A minorAm
And I can see that in your eyes you wish it was
  FF      G+G       C majorC   B/C A minorAm
But every time I leave you just bec---a---use
     FF       G+G       C majorC
It isn't love, it isn't love, it isn't love
