Intro: / D5 - - D5addC# / Dsus4 - - D / x2
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
He comes for conver - sation,
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
I comfort him sometimes
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
Comfort and consultation,
F E Asus4 (1)
he knows that's what he'll find
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
I bring him apples and cheeses,
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
he brings me songs to play
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
He sees me when he pleases,
F E Asus4 (1)
I see him in cafes
D5 (1) Dsus4 (1)
And I only say, hello, and turn away before his lady knows
D7sus4 Dsus4 Asus4 (1)
How much I want to see him
D5 (1) Dsus4 (1)
She removes him, like a ring to wash her hands, She only brings him out to
D7sus4 Dsus4 D (hold 1)
show her friends I want to free him
Repeat Intro
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
Secrets and sharing soda,
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
that's how our time began
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
Love is a story told to a
F E Asus4 (1)
friend, it's secondhand
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
But I'll listen to his questions,
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
I'll give my answers when they're found
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
He says she keeps him guessing,
F E Asus4 (2)
but I know she keeps him down
D5 (1) Dsus4 (1)
She speaks in sorry sentences, miraculous repentances
D7sus4 Dsus4 Asus4 (1)
I don't believe her
D5 (1) Dsus4 (1)
Tomorrow he will come to me and speak his sorrow endlessly
D7sus4 Dsus4 D (hold 1)
And ask me why Why can't I leave her?
Repeat Intro
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
He comes for conver - sation,
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
I comfort him sometimes
D5 D5addC# Dsus4 Asus4
Comfort and consultation,
F E Asus4 (1)
he knows that's what he'll find
F E Asus4 (2)
He knows that's what he'll find
/ D5 - - D5addC# / Dsus4 - - D / x4
