Bittersweet Chords

(ver. 1)
Everything But The Girl
[Verse]
C    C7M      F               G       C
Don't talk to me in that familiar way
         C7M            F     G
When the keys are in my hand
C     C7M          F             G         C
Don't say that everything is here to stay
           C7M          F     G
And I must try to understand
    C          Am                      DM7
When I'm try-ing not to look into your eyes
   G                           C
Trying not to listen to your lies
    Am                           Dm7
Trying just to keep hold of myself
              G                             C    C7M   F  G
Oh but it's hard when you leave me on the shelf
 
 
[Verse]
C    C7M      F               G
You say that I set a path for you to follow
 C    C7M            F     G
And I've already given in
 C    C7M      F               G
But I only meant for you to taste not swallow
 C     C7M            F           G
Where I end is where you must begin
C    Am                          Dm7
So tr-y not to look into their eyes
G                            C
Try not to listen to their lies
    Am                       Dm7
Try just to keep hold of yourself
                 G                            C    C7M   F  G
Oh I know it's hard when they leave you on their shelf
 
 
[Verse]
C      C7M
She's such a sweet girl
F            G
Free of the taints of this world
C              C7M
Think that's a compliment
      F               G
Don't be so full of sentiment
C                     Am
Why you worship sweetness
                           Dm7
What virtue's there in weakness
                             G                   C    C7M    F  G
Being pushed about is nothing much to shout about I know
 
 
C    Am                          Dm7
So tr-y not to look into their eyes
G                            C
Try not to listen to their lies
    Am                       Dm7
Try just to keep hold of yourself
                 G                            C    C7M   F  G
Oh I know it's hard when they leave you on their shelf
