A#F7
I thought I told you, heʼd be home soon
A#F7
Couldnʼt help myself, youʼre too good to be true.
A#F7
I fall short each time, every time he ainʼt here,
A#F7
You and your charm creep closer, closer in here.
GmD#
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all.
C7
Like a bomb before explosion,
F7
Ticking by your call.
A#F7
Youʼre the wiser one, disguised from greed,
GmD#F7
And Iʼm just a child who belongs on her knees.
Chorus:
D#D
But I found a boy who I love more,
Gm
Than I ever did you before,
D#D
So stand beside the river I cried,
GmD#Cm
And let yourself down.
A#F7
Look how you want me now that I donʼt need you.
A#F7
So, you thought that I would crumble to my knees
GmD#
At the first sight of you, crawling back to me
F7Gm
To whisper ʼwill you leave your man?ʼ
D#F7A#
Cause you sweared that this time you can stand by me.
F7
I wonʼt stand by you.
Chorus:
D#D
But I found a boy who I love more,
Gm
Than I ever did you before,
D#D
So stand beside the river I cried,
GmD#Cm
And let yourself down.
F#
Look how you want me now that I donʼt need you.
D#m
I ainʼt yours for no taking,
F7
You must be mistaken
A#
I could never look in your eyes, and settle for wrong
And ignore the right
Chorus:
D#D
But I found a boy who loves me more,
Gm
Than you ever did before,
D#D
So stand beside the river you’ll cry,
GmD#Cm
And let yourself down.
A#F7A#
Look how you want me now that I donʼt need you.
