[Verse]
A# F
I thought I told you, he'd be home soon
A# F
Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true.
A# F
I fall short each time, every time he ain't here,
A# F
You and your charm creep closer, closer in here.
Gm D#
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all.
C7
Like a bomb before explosion,
F
Ticking by your call.
A# F
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed,
Gm D# F
And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees.
[Chorus]
D# D
But I found a boy who I love more,
Gm
Than I ever did you before,
D# D
So stand beside the river I cried,
Gm D# Cm
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
A# F
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
A# F
So, you thought that I would crumble to my knees
Gm D#
At the first sight of you, crawling back to me
F Gm
To whisper 'will you leave your man?'
D# F A#
Cause you sweared that this time you can stand by me.
F
I won't stand by you.
[Chorus]
D# D
But I found a boy who I love more,
Gm
Than I ever did you before,
D# D
So stand beside the river I cried,
Gm D# Cm
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
F#
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
D#m6
I ain't yours for no taking,
F
You must be mistaken
A#
I could never look in your eyes, and settle for wrong
And ignore the right
[Chorus]
D# D
But I found a boy who loves me more,
Gm
Than you ever did before,
D# D
So stand beside the river you’ll cry,
Gm D# Cm
And let yourself down.
A# F A#
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
D#m6
