Well you say, that I treat you like a book on a shelf. 
        E                              F#sus4           A 
I don't take you out that often cause i know i've completed you 
                     E   Esus4 E 
and that why you are here. 
         A                  E   Esus4 E 
That is the reason you stay here. 
F#m        A         E  Esus4 E (X2) 
How awful that must feel. 
 
 
E                                   A 
You said you'd be my dream. I could have you every night, 
          E                                   F#sus4            A 
and if, by morning I, I'd forgotten you, well, no big deal it'd be alright 
                           E    Esus4 E 
cos you are the reoccurring kind. 
            A            E    Esus4 E 
You are the re-occurr-ing kind. 
F#m               A        E  Esus4 E (X2) 
You never really leave my mind 
 
E                                                        A 
Are you the love of my lifetime? Because there have been times I have had my doubts 
             E                                   F#sus4      A 
We were just kids when i first kissed you in the attic of my parents house 
                         E  Esus4 E 
and I wish we where there now 
          A              E  Esus4 E 
It took so long to figure out 
F#             A         E  Esus4 E (X2) 
What this book has been about 
 
E                                A 
Now I write when I'm away letters that you'll never read 
               E                             F#sus4       A 
You said go explore those other women, the ge-ogra-phy of their bod-ies 
                                E   Esus4 E 
but there is just one map you'll need 
              A             E   Esus4 E 
You are a boom-erang. You'll see. 
F#m       A        E Esus4 E 
You will return to me 
 
E  A  F#sus4 
You Will, you Will...

If you don't, the this book is all lies. If you don't, then my plans would all 
E                                   A                              F#sus4 
be ruined. If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way i drank before 
      A                             E 
And I just wouldn't have a future anymore.
