[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.
Em C
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all.
A7
Like a bomb before explosion,
D
Ticking by your call.
G D
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed,
Em C D
And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees.
[Chorus]
C B
But I found a boy who I love more,
Em
Than I ever did you before,
C B
So stand beside the river I cried,
Em C Am
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
Em C
At the first sight of you, crawling back to me
D Em
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 B
But I found a boy who I love more,
Em
Than I ever did you before,
C B
So stand beside the river I cried,
Em C Am
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
D#
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
Cm6
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 B
But I found a boy who loves me more,
Em
Than you ever did before,
C B
So stand beside the river you’ll cry,
Em C Am
And let yourself down.
G D G
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
Cm6
