C5     C5         F5            G5         C5
   don't talk to me in that familiar way
         C5            F5    G5
when the keys are in my hand
C5  C5            F5             G5           C5
don't say that everything is here to stay
             C5          F5   G5
and I must try to understand
      C5        A5                     D5
when I'm trying not to look into your eyes
   G5                           C5
trying not to listen to your lies
       A5                      D5
trying just to keep hold of myself
             G5
oh but it's hard
                         C5     C5  F5 G5
when you leave me on the shelf
C5   C5     F5
you say  I set a path
     G5
for you to follow
C5        C5           F5  G5
and I've already given in
C5    C5    F5
but I only meant for you
    G5
to taste not swallow
C5     C5             F5           G5
where I end is where you must begin

C5     A5                      D5
  so try not to look into their eyes
G5                           C5
try not to listen to their lies
     A5                       D5
try just to keep hold of yourself
                G5
oh I know it's hard
                              C5    C5 F5 G5
when they leave you on their shelf
C5      C5
she's such a sweet girl
F5            G5
free of the taints of this world
C5                   C5
think that's a compliment
       F5              G5
don't be so full of sentiment
C5                        A5
why you worship sweetness
                               D5
what virtue's there in weakness
                          G5
being pushed about is nothing much
                 C5     C5 F5 G5
to shout about I know
 C5     A5                         D5
  So...try  not to look into their eyes...
