Intro: E5

E5                         F#5
I can imagine nothing more tedious
E5                           F#5
Than trying to have fun with you again
E5                           F#5
Maybe it's just something in my mind
E5                                F#5
But I hate feeling like I'm trying all the time
               E5
It's a kind of lie
F#5                     E5       F#5       E5  F#5  E5 F#5 
When we pretend that we're still friends

E5                           F#5
And every time I smile d'you wonder if I'm laughin' at you?
E5                             F#5
And with every little grin you don't want to be wonderin'
E5                      F#5                     E5   F#5 
Just exactly what it is I'm taking pleasure in

Guitar melody: Em 

E5
Although I always said
F#5                            E5
We were basically the same and all one
F#5 
All one
       E5               F#5
It's so easy to persuade myself
        E5                   F#5
That I'm clockwork and you're quartz
    E5                   F#5
I'm clockwork and you're quartz

Guitar melody: Em

G5                    F5
You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled
Eb5                        D5
You're only happy when you wind me up
G5                           F5
And I know You're so reliable it isn't true
Eb5                            D5
And it's so easy for me to break down
G5                                 F5
If I could jump a ride between the skin and silicon then
Eb5                                D5
We could join hands and understand. Hallelujah!
G5
But I listen
F5
to the ticking
Eb5                  D5
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
