Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Well your voice grips me [G]tight
like fin[Bm]gers[E]
Takes [Em]hold [G]of whatever
[A]'s in [D]sid[G]e[A]
[D]Though we try to harmon[G]ize
with different [Bm]singe[E]rs
[Em]When [G]we're out of tune at least
[A]we'll know we've tri[D]ed[G]
Baby, it's a [A]hopeless feeling
[C]Leaves Mr. Logic reeling
I [G]love you, I know
But [D]what does that mean
When [Bm]the only place forward
is where [E]we've just been
[Em]It's time [G]to think twice
It's time to decide
[D]Turn and keep [G]walking or [A]be my bride
Or be my [G]bride
Or be my bride
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
[D]
Well Roy Orbison, he [G]knows that I
can't forget [Bm]you[G][E]
Well [Em]he to[G]ld me last n[A]ight at forty-five
[D]Hope [G]Hop[A]e t[D]his honesty doesn't[G]
honestly upset [Bm]you[G][E]
He said a to [G]lie is death to love',
[A]I know we're still a[D]live[G]
Baby when [A]the morning's break[C]ing
So many actresses
have already started faking
[G]I love you I know
But it's not [D]such a big deal
I'm [Bm]gonna tape you this song
on my [E]reel to reel to reel
It's [G]time to think twice
Make up your mind
[D]Take me to the [G]altar or [A]leave me behind
Or leave me [G]behind
Or leave me behind
[D][G]

[Verse 3]
[D]Well my memories,
they lie [G]to me just because they want [Bm]to[G][E]
Well, [G]like a runaway train,
you know [A]I have no cont[D]rol[A]
[D]I'm gonna tell them where [G]you live so
they can go and haunt [Bm]you[G][E][G]
And take back all the [A]parts of
me [D]you stole[G][D][G]
But I no longer [A]feel like crying
[C]My nervous system's dying
I [G]love you I know
But I'm [D]anesthetized
I [Bm]was foolishly hopeful,
now [Em]I've real[E]ized
[Em]It w[G]as time to think twice
[Gm]You had to go
[G]I hop[D]e that you blossom,
I [Bm]hope that you grow
[G]Write me a postcard,
make it [Gm]some little [G]thing
[D]If you get married, I'll [Bm]carry the ring
[G]If you get married,
intro[A]duce me to him
[G]Introduce me to him,
introduce [D]me[G][D]
to him
