INTR.: D F#m G Gm D G D
F#m G
Spending time
Gm D
Convinced that it's mine with her
G D
Just to keep her out of mind
G Gm
Still I'll take care to see
F#m
Which way the wind blows
G
Notice how her hair curls
Gm
Pay no mind
F#m
To the clown who sits to your side
G
Content to yield despite pride
Gm F#m
He is a fool to assume you'd spare a thought
I'm a thief who's just been caught
G Gm F#m
And I don't find it funny anymore
G Gm
And so I won't play the part
F#m
I played before
Gm
Oh, no...
G Gm F#m
Not to you
G Gm F#m
I don't see you laughing anyway
G Gm
And so I won't play a part
F#m
In your mistake
G
No way
G Gm F#m
Not unless you stay
G Gm F#m Bm G Gm D
