intro : Bm 
 
Bm 
I've driven round in circles for three hours 
it was bound to happen that I'd up at yours 
I temporarily forgot that there's better days to come 
I thought that I would give you just one more chance 
 
      Em7                                      D 
cos I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for 
      Em7                                     D 
but I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about 
 
Bm 
you think you are complicated, deep mystery to all 
well it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special 
all energy no meaning, with a lot of words 
so paper thin that one real feeling could knock you down 
 
       Em7                                           D 
and I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about 
       Em7                                             D 
I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind 
 
Bm 
so see you when you're 40, lost and all alone 
being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know 
not sad because you lost me 
but sad because you thought it was cool to be sad 
 
Bm 
you think misery will make you stand out from the crowd 
well if you had walked past me today  
I wouldn't have picked you out 
I wouldn't have picked you out 
 
       Em7                                        D 
now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my time 
       Em7                                 D 
and I'll be on my way and I won't be back 
       Em7                                        D 
cos I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about 
        Em7                                         D 
you're just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
