Save Your Scissors

G
So go on
                Em1
And I will refrain
     G                                     Em1
And I'll keep on running this neverending race
  G                           Em1
maybe next time will be the right time
     G                       Em1
and maybe next time will be your time

               Am
So save your scissors
              G
For someone else's skin
      Em2
My surface is so tough
                 C
I don't think the blade will dig in
         
Am
Save your strength 
         G
Save your wasted time
  Em2                               C
There's no way that I want you to be left behind
                 G
Go on save your scissors
          Em1
Save your scissors

   G                   Em1
So why does it always seem
      G              
That every time I turn around
          Em1
Somebody falls in love with me
G                           Em1
This has never been my soul intention
    G                                        Em1
And I have never claimed to have patents on such inventions

               Am
Just save your scissors
              G
For someone else's skin
      Em2
My surface is so tough
                 C
I don't think the blade will dig in
         
Am
Save your strength 
         G
Save your wasted time
  Em2                               C
There's no way that I want you to be left behind
                 G
Go on save your scissors
          Em1
Save your scissors

C                         Em2                 G
There is something that I must confess to you tonight
       Am
To you tonight
     C                Em2                   G
And that is I expect nothing less from you tonight
          Am
From you tonight

                  G
Go on save your scissors
         Em1
Save your scissors
         G
Save your scissors

      End on G
