Verse
Bm F# Bm F#
Bm
Please listen closely
F#
I think you think you know what I want, but you don't
F#7
To want to know me
Bm B
Is to ask me to ask you to tell, but you won't
Em
And so we sit here
Bm
And talk in circles
F#
Pointed politeness
Bm
'Til we turn purple
G F#
Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls and talk like we've been married forty years?
[Verse 2]
Bm
And so we dance, dear
F#
Nose to nose but wanting to be mouth to mouth
F#7
Give it a chance, dear
Bm B
Break the ice if there's ice, or at least ask me how
Em
Because we sit here
Bm
Both with this knowing
F#
There's something under
Bm
Forever growing
G
Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls
F#
And not talk like we're married fifty years?
[Chorus]
Bm F# Bm F#
I know you're bored like me
[Verse 3]
Bm
So tell me kindly
F#
I wonder if you love like I love loving you
F#7
I'm going in blindly
Bm B
So make the risk want the risk like I want you to do
Em Bm
Just scrap the questions take off the masks
F# Bm
Let the curtain fall and lead me to the dark
G
Oh, darling are you there say a word
F#
I will not use this mouth for chatter anymore
[Chorus]
N.C. Bm F# Bm F#
Oh, I know you're bored like me
