D D (little riff) G G/F# x2

             D (xx0232@1)She was once mine
                G (320003@1)    G/F# (320002@1)              D (xx0232@1)                               GG/F# 
That smile that shines from the glossy magazine that stuck inside the Sunday Times
           D (xx0232@1)                G (320003@1)  G/F#(and (320002@1)so on...)
She was so sweet on Christmas Eve
With the snow set deep, when we went walking through the pines
                Em (022000@1)                          GI (320003@1)had just been fired and her first offer had arrived
                               D/F#And (200232@1)the new year would see her flying far away from me
A (x02220@1)             A?(002223)     D (xx0232@1)   GG/F#
Though I didn't know it at the time
                  DWith (xx0232@1)outstretched hands
        G (320003@1)       G/F#Now (320002@1)she commands
         D (xx0232@1)              AA (x02220@1)famous figure for every picture
        D (xx0232@1)                      G (320003@1)      G/F#And (320002@1)she stands up strong and she demands
         DAnd (xx0232@1)they deliver
              AYeah, (x02220@1)she's a fixture
           Em (022000@1)                         G (320003@1)                                D/F#And (200232@1)it's a mixture of dumb jealousy and fear that I might feel, should she appear
                               AJust (x02220@1)like it hasn't been three years
              Em (022000@1)                           GAnd (320003@1)there's a distance to her voice over the phone and that's because she stands D/F#
alone
                        A (x02220@1)    A?
While I'm still sitting here
                 Em (022000@1)                  BmGirl, (x24432@1)you see me here on another quiet night
                    D/F# (200232@1)                  AI (x02220@1)will wait until another indistinguishable day arrives
       Em (022000@1)                            BmI'll (x24432@1)decide where the light's even and bright
                              D/F# (200232@1)                         A (x02220@1)            EmWhere (022000@1)my life's sweet as it's slightly, disappointedly, just gliding softly by
                   Bm (x24432@1)                    D/F#And (200232@1)you won't wait for me in some secluded stand of trees some Christmas Eve some 
A (x02220@1)                         Emgod (022000@1)was kind enough to set aside
             BmAlthough (x24432@1)I'd love you to, I'm proud of you
    D/F# (200232@1)                          AGod (x02220@1)knows I'm feeling really stupid now
                         D (xx0232@1)  G (320003@1)G/F#For (320002@1)having ever said goodbye
           DDuring (xx0232@1)the fight
              G (320003@1)     G/F#I (320002@1)said, "Yeah right"
         D (xx0232@1)                               G (320003@1)      G/F# (320002@1)       
When you insisted that I visit, that you'd write
                           D (xx0232@1)                                       G (320003@1)   G/F#Now, (320002@1)I know you're working hard so I never hear from you, and that's fine
             D (xx0232@1)                         G (320003@1)     G/F#You (320002@1)look the same on TV as when you were mine
  Em (022000@1)                           Bm (x24432@1)         AI (x02220@1)walk in from the kitchen and I finger the remote control
  Em (022000@1)                                Bm (x24432@1)                AI (x02220@1)watch you from the distance, you go walking through the terminal
  Em (022000@1)                             D/F# (200232@1)   
I remember ever instance, when you stung me
              AOh, (x02220@1)you're so lovely
              EmOh, (022000@1)you're so smart
                  G (320003@1)                  A (x02220@1)                  D (xx0232@1)    G (320003@1) G/F#x2 (320002@1)So, go turn their heads, go knock them dead, go break their hearts
               D (xx0232@1)    GG/F#
Go break their hearts
Baby, break their hearts
And I know you will
