[Verse]
E B
I thought I told you, he'd be home soon
E B
Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true.
E B
I fall short each time, every time he ain't here,
E B
You and your charm creep closer, closer in here.
C#m A
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all.
F#7
Like a bomb before explosion,
B
Ticking by your call.
E B
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed,
C#m A B
And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees.
[Chorus]
A G#
But I found a boy who I love more,
C#m
Than I ever did you before,
A G#
So stand beside the river I cried,
C#m A F#m
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
E B
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
E B
So, you thought that I would crumble to my knees
C#m A
At the first sight of you, crawling back to me
B C#m
To whisper 'will you leave your man?'
A B E
Cause you sweared that this time you can stand by me.
B
I won't stand by you.
[Chorus]
A G#
But I found a boy who I love more,
C#m
Than I ever did you before,
A G#
So stand beside the river I cried,
C#m A F#m
And let yourself down.
[Verse]
C
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
Am6
I ain't yours for no taking,
B
You must be mistaken
E
I could never look in your eyes, and settle for wrong
And ignore the right
[Chorus]
A G#
But I found a boy who loves me more,
C#m
Than you ever did before,
A G#
So stand beside the river you’ll cry,
C#m A F#m
And let yourself down.
E B E
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
Am6
