Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Dm][F][Am][F][Dm]
[Am]I

[Verse 1]
just
wanted everything to be per[F]fect
[Am]But you would call me slightly
[F]OCD[Dm]
You know [G]that there's [Am]a right time
A right place
[F]Everything in order,
a logic and a system to [Dm]everything
Tear it into [Em]pieces go and tear
[F]it into [C]pieces
[Am]There were nights

[Verse 2]
when things
you'd do would [F]scare [G]me
[Am]Your behaviour somewhat OTT
[F]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]
You [G]know that [Am]now I have to question
Why I couldn't leave [G]it well [F]alone
[Em]You [Dm]were going[D] that way while
[Dm]I was go[D]ing th[Em]is way
But we'd [F]left that situation
[C]

[Verse 4]
[Em]Should've left when you said
You don't live here no more
You're just hanging [D]around[Bm]
I stayed a little [G]late [C]tonight
I stayed a little [G]late [D]tonight

[Verse 5]
[Bm]Well aware[D] that [Em]you know
That we've been here before
And you're pulling me [D]down[Bm]
I stayed a little [G]late [C]to night
I stayed a little [G]late tonight

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][Am]
[G][F][G][Am][G][F][Dm][G]
[Am]I guess it must

[Verse 6]
be something
in [G]my [F]make- [G]up
[Am]I can be my own worst en[G]emy
[F]

[Verse 7]
[Dm]This ain't[G] a two- [Am]way conversation
Why I couldn't [G]listen long [F]a go?
Thought [Em]I could handle
[Dm]your[D] rejection[Dm]
Stand up on my [Em]own but I'm w[F]alk
ing on a [C]tightrope
Should've [Em]left when you said

[Verse 8]
You don't live here no more
You're just hanging [D]around[Bm]
I stayed a little [G]late [C]tonight
I stayed a little [G]late [D]tonight

[Verse 9]
[Bm]Well aware[D] that [Em]you know
That we've been here before
And you're pulling me [D]down[Bm]
I stayed a little [G]late [C]to [G]night
[C]Tonig[G]ht, tonig[Em]ht, ton[G]ight, tonigh[D]t

[Outro 1]
[Bm][D][Em][D][Bm][G][C][G][D]
[Bm][Em][D][Bm][G][C][G]
