Verse:
I co[Bm]comb the crowd and pick you out
My m[G]outh moves too f[Em]ast for you to f[Bm]igure it out
It starts eyes closed to fingers crossed
"To [G]I swea[Em]swear, I say[Bm]say"
"To [G]I swea[Em]swear, I say[Bm]say"
Pre-Chorus:
To hands be[G]between legs, to "whatever [Em]it takes"
To d[Bm]drinks at the club to the [A]bar
To the [Gb]keys to your ca[G]car
To hotel s[Em]stairs to the emergency e[Bm]exit door [A]
Chorus:
To the l[D]love, I left my conscience p[Dmaj7]pressed
Between the pages of the B[Bm]Bible in the drawer
"[D]"What did it ever do for me" [G]I say -I say, I [Bm]say, I say-
It never c[D]calls me when I'm d[G]down
Love never wa[Bm]wanted me
But I took it anyway
[D]Put your ear to the s[G]speaker
And choose love or sym[Bm]sympathy
But never bo[D]both
[G]Love never wa[Bm]wanted me
Verse:
"I [Bm]hoped you choked
And crashed your car"
[G]Hey "tear [Em]catcher", that's a[Bm]all that you are
[Bm]and ever were
[Bm]From the start
[G]I sw[Em]swear, I[Bm]I say
[G]I sw[Em]swear, I[Bm]I say
Pre-Chorus:
To hands be[G]between legs, to "whatever [Em]it takes"
To d[Bm]drinks at the club to the [A]bar
To the [Gb]keys to your ca[G]car
To hotel s[Em]stairs to the emergency e[Bm]exit door [A]
Chorus:
To the l[D]love, I left my conscience p[Dmaj7]pressed
Between the pages of the B[Bm]Bible in the drawer
"[D]"What did it ever do for me" [G]I say -I say, I [Bm]say, I say-
It never c[D]calls me when I'm d[G]down
Love never wa[Bm]wanted me
But I took it anyway
[D]Put your ear to the s[G]speaker
And choose love or sym[Bm]sympathy
But never bo[D]both [G] [A]
Bridge:
To the "[D]"love" I left my conscience [Dmaj7]pressed
Through the keyhole I watched you [G]dress, kiss and tell
[Gm]-Loose lips sink ships-
To the "[Bm]"love" I left my conscience [E7]pressed
Through the keyhole I watched you [G]dress, kiss and tell
[Gm]-Loose lips sink ships-
To the "[D]"love" I left my conscience [Dmaj7]pressed
Through the keyhole I watched you [G]dress, kiss and tell
[Gm]-Loose lips sink ships-
Outro:
To the "[Bm]"love" I left my conscience [E7]pressed
To the "[Bm]"love" I left my conscience [E7]pressed
To the "[Bm]"love" I left my conscience [E7]pressed
Between the pages of the [G]Bible in the drawer
[G]"What did it ever do for me" I say
