            A                     E
I thought I told you, he'd be home soon
               A                           E
Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true.
                  A                          E
I fall short each time, every time he ain't here,
                           A                 E
You and your charm creep closer, closer in here.
                     F#m                       D
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all.
                      B7
Like a bomb before explosion,
                 E
Ticking by your call.
            A                         E
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed,
               F#m                      D        E
And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees.

    D                 C#
But I found a boy who I love more,
     F#m
Than I ever did you before,
    D                 C#
So stand beside the river I cried,
    F#m           D        Bm
And let yourself down.
                                           A         E
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
          A                                  E
So, you thought that I would crumble to my knees
               F#m                          D
At the first sight of you, crawling back to me
    E                 F#m
To whisper 'will you leave your man?'
                       D                    E            A
Cause you sweared that this time you can stand by me.
                 E
I won't stand by you.

    D                 C#
But I found a boy who I love more,
     F#m
Than I ever did you before,
    D                     C#
So stand beside the river I cried,
    F#m            D        Bm
And let yourself down.
                                            F
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
                            Dm6
I ain't yours for no taking,
                    E
You must be mistaken
                                       A
I could never look in your eyes, and settle for wrong

And ignore the right

    D                   C#
But I found a boy who loves me more,
     F#m
Than you ever did before,
      D                       C#
So stand beside the river you'll cry,
    F#m           D        Bm
And let yourself down.
              A               E             A
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.

( Dm6 )
