Catch In The Dark

C  Em  Fmaj7  C  Am  Em  Fmaj7  G


[Verse]

        C                     Em
Well she calls me up when she's broken
           Fmaj7                    C
says to leave my front door open
  Am                   Em
I come home to find her smoking
            Fmaj7                   G
with her eyes all fragile and thin


         C                          Em
She's always been hopeless at hoping
Fmaj7                   C
always coped badly with coping
Am                     Em
I never know when she's joking
             Fmaj7              G
because she never lets anyone in


[Chorus]

F        F
Now I'm a fool to let her
C                   F
run away with my heart
C               F
but she'll never tire
            G
of these games


F
Loving her is like playing
C           F
catch in the dark
       C                 F     G
I'm a teardrop in an ocean
   C
of flames


[Verse]

        C                 Em
And we'll drink too much for a wednesday
      Fmaj7              C
she asks me why none of her men stay
      Am                          Em
and I tell her just what her friends say
   Fmaj7                     G
it never goes down too well


          C                     Em
We should stay here till late in the evening
               Fmaj7                 C
but she is always arriving or leaving
Am                    Em
never decides to believe in
      Fmaj7                  G
the people who know her so well


[Chorus]

F        F
Now I'm a fool to let her
C                   F
run away with my heart
C               F
but she'll never tire
            G
of these games


F
Loving her is like playing
C           F
catch in the dark
       C                 F     G
I'm a teardrop in an ocean
   Am
of flames


[Bridge]

       Fmaj7               C
She says if we're still single at 40
             E7                Am
we'll get married and move to the country
     Fmaj7                   C        G
but I know she'll never want me


[Verse]

           C               Em
And it's 5.15 in the morning
  Fmaj7                       C
I reach for her while I'm yawning
      Am                         Em
she leaves me with no warning
