Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][C][G][Em][D][A][C][G]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
They [D]told me what you'd do
[C]If I ever [G]stayed with [Bm]you.
[G]They tol[D]d me that you'd lau[A]gh
While I [D]cried.

[Verse 2]
[D]They told me what you'd say
[C]That you'd turn and [Bm]walk [G]away
And [D]find another [A]place [D]to play,

[Verse 3]
While I cried.
[G]Now I think back on those times
[Em]I didn't read between the lines.
How [C]all the things that you said
Nev[A]er seemed to match the things

[Interlude 1]
you did.
[D][A][C][Bm][D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
[C]Thoughts keep turning round in my [D]mind
[C]Now I see reason and [D]rhyme.
Time spent with [F#m]you has
[Bm]brought me something
And [Em]I've lost nothing [A]If you are

[Interlude 2]
that kind.
[A][D][C][D][Bm][D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
They [D]told me what you'd do
[C]If I ever sta[Bm]yed with you
An[D]d sure enough,
[A]It all came true.
[D]
