[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][A]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][A]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][A]
[D]
[G]Nobody's perfect,

[Verse 1]
[G]
[A]and tha[D]t's something that
I'm [Em]sure [G]she'll kno[A]w
'Cause [D]trying to tell her [Em]lies
from [G]the truth at times
[A]Is like trying[F#] to divide ice fro[G]m snow[D]
When I [G]knew it was over,
[A]I j[D]umped into a taxi[Em]
And said, [G]Just guess where [A]to go
And [D]the driver turned [G]about and said,
Finding what you [D]want is like
Try[F#]ing to divide ice from [G]snow

[Verse 2]
So [A]here I sit, [G]rolling back to bed
Knowing [A]love is a hazard
[F#m]That I'd n[A]ever g[G]uessed
But from [D]this side of the morn[G]ing
I couldn't [A]care less

[Interlude 1]
[F#m][A][D][G]
[D][G][D][G][A][D]
[G][D][G][D][G][A]

[Verse 3]
[D]Nob[Em]ody's helples[G]s, alt[A]hough
[D]I've never [Em]felt this [G]helpless before
[A]And try[D]ing to persuade
[Em]myself not t[G]o think abou[A]t her
Is like [F#]trying to tell the clouds not [G]to pour
[D]So I [Em]put down [G]the bottle
[A]While in my hea[D]d time is collap[Em]sing
And the [G]currents run [A]cold
So [D]I can curse h[Em]er memory
But [G]don't try [A]telling me [F#]that she was not
An emerald in [G]a mountain of coal
Or that there's [F#]a crock of cures for cancer
At the [G]end of the rainbow

[Verse 4]
So [A]here I sit, [G]rolling back to bed
Knowing [A]love is a hazard
[Bm]That I'd [G]never guessed
But from [D]this side of the morn[G]ing
I couldn't care [A]less[G][A][F#m][A]

[Verse 5]
[A]And she's the kind of girl
who won't forgive
[G]But will forget
[D]So [G]take me from this party, driver,
[A]Put me back to bed
I wanted to be loved but just
got [G]laughed at in[D]stead
So [G]if this taxi is for [Em]hire
I'll get [G]in the back
Just to hear the fric[Em]tion of the tarmac and
[A]the tires

[Interlude 2]
[A][D][G][D][G][D][G]
[A][D][G][D][G][D][G]
[A]

[Verse 6]
[D]So [Em]nobody's per[G]fect,
[A]and that's som[D]ething that
I'm [Em]sure [G]she'll kno[A]w
[D]And trying to per[Em]suade my[G]self
Not to think [A]about her is like
[F#]Try ing to tell the cockerels not [G]to crow
Or like try[F#]ing to tell the striker
Not to [G]think about the goal

[Verse 7]
So [A]here I sit, [G]rolling back to bed
Knowing [A]love is a hazard
That'd I'd never [G]guessed
[D]But[G][D][G]
from [D]this side of the morn[G]ing
[A]I couldn't care less
