6  -6  6 -6  5   6 -6  -4  5   -4   -4
I thought I told you, he'd be home soon 
   5      6   -6 -7 -6 6 -6
Couldn't help myself, 
 -4     5   -4  4  -4 -4 5
You're too good to be true 
5 -4 4 4     4    3    4
I     fall short each time 
-4 5   -4  4  -4 4  -4 5
Every time he ain't here 
 6   6   6    -6     7   -6 -6 7 -6 6 5
You and your charm creep in closer, 
8 -8 7 -8 7 -7 -6 6 -6 6 5
Closer in   here 
 6   6  -6   6  -6 7
Like a fool for fire 
-6 6 -6  7   -6 6 -6  -4   5
I fall, with my pride and all 
 4  -4  5   4 -4 4 4  5  -4
Like a bomb before explosion 
 5  -4  4   -3   -4
Ticking by your call 
-6 6   -6 6 6 5 5  6 -6
You're the  wis-er one, 
 6  7 -7 -6  -6    6
Dis-guis-ed from greed 
 5  -6   6  -6 -4 4 -4 4
And I'm just a child 
4 -3” 4 5 -4  4  -4  -4 5
Who   belongs on her knees 
 6 -6  -6   6 -6   5 -7 -7 -6 -7 -6
But I found a boy who I love  more 
 5   7 -6 -6 6 -6  5 -4 4 5 4 -3”
Than I    ever did you    before 
6   -6   -6 -6   6  -7 -7 7 -7 7 -7
So stand beside the river I cried 
-6   7  -6 6  7   7
And let yourself down 
 7   -6   7  5 -4 4 4   4
Look how you want   me now 
 4  -4  4     4    4
That I don't need you 
So, you thought that 
I’d crumble to my knees 
At the first sight of you 
Crawling back to me  
To whisper 'will you leave your man?' 
Cause you swear that this time 
You can stand by me I won't stand by you 
Cause I found a boy who I love more 
Than I ever did you before 
So stand beside the river I cried 
And let yourself down 
Look how you want me now 
That I don't need you 
4  4     4     4  4  -4 5
I ain't yours for no taking 
 4   -4  -4  5 -5 6
You must be mistaken 
7  -6   -6 6   -6  6 -6  6    -6
I could never look into your eyes 
-4   4  4  -3   3
And settle for wrong 
 5  5  -4   4   4
And ignore the right 
 6  -6  -6   6 -6   5  -7 -7 -6 -7 -6
When I found a boy who loves me  more 
 5   7 -6 -6 6 -6  5 -4 4 5 4 -3”
Than you  ever did        before 
6   -6   -6 -6   6  -7 -7 7 -7 7 -7
So stand beside the river you  cried 
-6   7  -6 6  7   7
And let yourself down 
 7   -6   7  5 -4 4 4   4
Look how you want   me now 
 4  -4  4     4    4
That I don't need you
