VERSE

        C                     Em
Well she calls me up when she's broken

           Fmaj7                    C
says to leave my front door open

  Am                   Em
I come home to find her smoking

            Fmaj7                   G
with her eyes all fragile and thin


         C                          Em
She's always been hopeless at hoping

Fmaj7                   C
always coped badly with coping

Am                     Em
I never know when she's joking

             Fmaj7              G
because she never lets anyone in


CHORUS

F        F
Now I'm a fool to let her

C                   F
run away with my heart

C               F
but she'll never tire

            G
of these games


F
Loving her is like playing

C           F
catch in the dark

       C                 F     G
I'm a teardrop in an ocean

   C
of flames


VERSE

        C                 Em
And we'll drink too much for a wednesday

      Fmaj7              C
she asks me why none of her men stay

      Am                          Em
and I tell her just what her friends say

   Fmaj7                     G 
it never goes down too well


          C                     Em
We should stay here till late in the evening

               Fmaj7                 C 
but she is always arriving or leaving

Am                    Em
never decides to believe in

      Fmaj7                  G 
the people who know her so well


CHORUS

F        F
Now I'm a fool to let her

C                   F
run away with my heart

C               F
but she'll never tire

            G
of these games


F
Loving her is like playing

C           F
catch in the dark

       C                 F     G
I'm a teardrop in an ocean

   Am
of flames


BRIDGE

       Fmaj7               C
She says if we're still single at 40

             Em                Am
we'll get married and move to the country

     Fmaj7                   C        G
but I know she'll never want me


VERSE

           C               Em
And it's 5.15 in the morning

  Fmaj7                       C
I reach for her while I'm yawning

      Am                         Em
she leaves me with no warning
