A Better Deal

Em                 Bm
If I go, would you follow would you leave
        A
all you know
Em                             Bm
Run through woods, through the forest and the trees
        A
and the snow

G       Bm                       A
I could never reason anyway with you each piece
 N.C.                            G
of every puzzle always seemed to fall into place
   Bm                          A
exactly in the way you want it to

[Verse 2]

   Em                         Bm
To tell you I'm cold wouldn't get me far
        A                   N.C.
cause that's the way things usually are
       G                        Bm        A
this time of year

G                         Bm                   A
In a little while you can see me and I’ll feel better then
        G                     Bm
with my fingers crossed for a better deal
    (G)       A
and something sure

[Chorus]

Bm       E       Bm     G
Sink or swim for I have been
    D         Bm       A
the sweet one down the line
Bm         E
Tearing up tones
      Bm            G
and cracking all my bones
    D         Bm      A     Em
for something that is mine alone

[Verse 3]

Em                     Bm                       A
Four times round and I carry by the pound every word
N.C.                            G
and I sleep in the sunshine for hours and hours
            Bm
Can you tell me, is it true
             A
have you heard

[Bridge]

     A           G                   A
That you can get lost in a place you know
                      Bm                     A
like the back of your hand while the sirens call
                     G
in the front of your mind
            Bm                 A
Do you ever unwind, is it all for show

[Chorus]

Bm      E        Bm     G
Sink or swim for I have been
    D         Bm       A
the sweet one down the line
Bm      E
Holding out
    Bm        G
and half past doubt
     D        Bm        A      Em
that sometime you’ll be mine alone
