INTRO
E5 C5 X2
VERSE 1
E5 C5
To say the things I want to say to you would be a crime
E5 C5
To admit Im still in love with you after all this time
D5 E5
Id rather let you touch my arm until you die
D5 C5
Seduce with me with your charms until Im drunk on them
E5
Go home and drink in bed
D5 C5
And never let myself be in love like that again
E5 C5
VERSE 2
E5 C5
Light a cigarette and think of you and walk away
E5 C5
Turning all the words around in my head I wont say
D5 C5
Because all of these triangles and squares
E5
the memory we seem to share
D5 C5
replays a distant love that plays my records on
E5
CHORUS
D5 C5 E5 D5 C5
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again
D5 C5 E5 D5 C(C?ntinue)
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again
VERSE 3
E5 C5
To say the words I want to say to you would be a lie
E5 C5
By the time I get the courage, I am drunk and you are tired
D5 C5
Alone in this basement where I will write these songs
E5 D5 C5
The things Ill never say to you again and you know why
E5
CHORUS
D5 C5 E5 D5 C5
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again
