Verse
Am B Em
He put the coffee in the cup and with milk he filled it up
Am B7 Em
He added sugar and I never knew he liked it like that
Am B Em
He took his coat from the hook and his scarf and his hat
Am B7 Em
And he put down a key and said I won’t be needing that
Em
(Instrument)
Am B7 Em
And he turned and smiled and said that explained it all
Am B Em
And he walked down the hall and he opened the door
Am B C
And said I’ll call, I’ll call
[Chorus]
G D Am Em
Ahh haa Why do I bring you love
G D B7
When all you give me back is pain
G D Am Em
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
G D B7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away
[Verse II]
Am B Em
Now there’s a black black black bird in my chest
Am B Em
All the flatter all caged in
Em
(Instrument)
Am B Em
Wanting to break free with the wolves in my head
Am B C
You’re tearing every worse thing, I should have said
[Chorus]
G D Am Em
Ahhhhhhhh haa Why do I bring you love
G D B7
When all you give me back is pain
G D Am Em
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
G D B7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away
[Bridge]
Am Bm
We’re like the strangers we were
G
When we first met
B7 Em
But the pain in strangers had the end
Am Bm G
And all that remains is a day without plans
B7
The loneliness and the forever lost
G - D - Am - Em
G - D - B7 - B
[Chorus] x2
G D Am Em
Ahh haa Why do I bring you love
G D B7
When all you give me back is pain
G D Am Em
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
G D B7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away
