 Verse 1: 
B                                  Eb 
Closer than I thought we'd end up anyway 
B                                   Eb 
Never cared you left in fear too hard to stay 
B                                   Eb 
Control all my wavelengths till I find a better guy 
B                               Eb 
I don't know how you do it to me time after time
