E C#5
I'm not the kind of fool
A F#m
who's gonna sit and sing to you,
 
about stars, girl.
 
E C#5
But last night I looked up into
A F#m
the dark half of the blue,
C#m7M
and they'd gone backwards.
 
A B
Something in your magnetism
E Ab
must have pissed them off,
A B E Ab
forcing them to get an early night.
 
A B
I have been searching from
E Ab
the bottom to the top,
A
for such a sight
Am
as the one i caught when I saw your...
 
E B F#m
Fingers dimmed in the lights
E B F#m
like your used to being told that you're trouble
E B F#m
and I spent all night
E B F#m
stuck on the puzzle
 
E C#5
Nobody I asked
A
knew how he came to be the one
F#m
to whom you surrendered
 
E C#5
Any man who wasn't led away
A F#m
into the other room
C#m7M
stood pretending
 
A B
But something in your magnetism
E Ab
hadn't just made him drop
A B E Ab
whoever's hand it was that he was holding.
 
A B
I have been searching from
E Ab
the bottom to the top,
A
for such a sight
Am
as the one i caught when I saw your...
 
E B F#m
Fingers dimmed in the lights
E B F#m
like your used to being told that you're trouble
E B F#m
and I spent all night
E B F#m
stuck on the puzzle
 
E B F#m
I tried to swim to the side,
E B F#m
but my feet got caught in the middle,
E Ab A F#m
and I thought I'd seen the light,
B A Abm
but oh, no.
F#m E B F#m
I was just stuck on the puzzle.
E B F#m
Stuck on the puzzle.
 
( E B F#m ) (2x)
