[Verse]
G# D#
I thought I told you, he'd be home soon
G# D#
Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true.
G# D#
I fall short each time, every time he ain't here,
G# D#
You and your charm creep closer, closer in here.
Fm C#
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all.
A#7
Like a bomb before explosion,
D#
Ticking by your call.
G# D#
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed,
Fm C# D#
And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees.
[Chorus]
C# C
But I found a boy who I love more,
Fm
Than I ever did you before,
C# C
So stand beside the river I cried,
Fm C# A#m
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
G# D#
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
G# D#
So, you thought that I would crumble to my knees
Fm C#
At the first sight of you, crawling back to me
D# Fm
To whisper 'will you leave your man?'
C# D# G#
Cause you sweared that this time you can stand by me.
D#
I won't stand by you.
[Chorus]
C# C
But I found a boy who I love more,
Fm
Than I ever did you before,
C# C
So stand beside the river I cried,
Fm C# A#m
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
E
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
C#m6
I ain't yours for no taking,
D#
You must be mistaken
G#
I could never look in your eyes, and settle for wrong
And ignore the right
[Chorus]
C# C
But I found a boy who loves me more,
Fm
Than you ever did before,
C# C
So stand beside the river you’ll cry,
Fm C# A#m
And let yourself down.
G# D# G#
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
C#m6
