Intro: Em

Em                         F#m
I can imagine nothing more tedious
Em                           F#m
Than trying to have fun with you again
Em                           F#m
Maybe it's just something in my mind
Em                                F#m
But I hate feeling like I'm trying all the time
               Em
It's a kind of lie
F#m                     Em       F#m       Em  F#m  Em F#m 
When we pretend that we're still friends

Em                           F#m
And every time I smile d'you wonder if I'm laughin' at you?
Em                             F#m
And with every little grin you don't want to be wonderin'
Em                      F#m                     Em   F#m 
Just exactly what it is I'm taking pleasure in

Guitar melody: Em 

Em
Although I always said
F#m                            Em
We were basically the same and all one
F#m 
All one
       Em               F#m
It's so easy to persuade myself
        Em                   F#m
That I'm clockwork and you're quartz
    Em                   F#m
I'm clockwork and you're quartz

Guitar melody: Em

Gm                    Fm
You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled
Ebm                        Dm
You're only happy when you wind me up
Gm                           Fm
And I know You're so reliable it isn't true
Ebm                            Dm
And it's so easy for me to break down
Gm                                 Fm
If I could jump a ride between the skin and silicon then
Ebm                                Dm
We could join hands and understand. Hallelujah!
Gm
But I listen
Fm
to the ticking
Ebm                  Dm
I guess we're worlds apart ...

For this part, just follow the Gm/Fm/Ebm/Dm progression until the end, end on Em

It's so hard
So hard
So hard
