Mixed Signals

D A G


[Verse 1]
D                      A              G
I tried your number at 9 but to no avail
       A                                         D  F#
Tried again at 11, got sent straight to voicemail
Bm                                         Em
You said you needed a calm, quiet night alone
          A                                               D  F#
But that don't explain why you're not picking up the phone


[Pre-Chorus]
          Bm                              G
Now I'm driving through the city like a bullet in my seat
        D                     A
And I hold my breath when I hit your street
        D                             G
Your were restless when you told me everything was alright
            D                         A
One quiet night alone if nothing is wrong


[Chorus]
A                      G
How come you're not home
                 A  D
When it's almost 3AM
                     G
When you decide to show?
G                      A                D
You're gonna tell me where you've been
                    G
Don't spare me the details, I wanna know

What does he look like?
A
What does he talk like?
Bm                       Em
Thought you wanted to make this work
      G              A
But you're sending me mixed signals


[Interlude]
D A G


[Verse 2]
D
With lowered emotion
     A                      G
You greet me and I'm overcome
             A                                          D F#
'Cause your body language is speaking in another tongue


[Pre-Chorus]
           Bm                              G
First you tell me that you needed some excitement in your life
          D                     A
Then you grab the handle, and turn the knife
   D
Accusations, of obsessive, misbehaviour
G                          D
Like we ain't been down to hell and back
            A
And made it untrue


[Chorus]
A                    G
I thought that was you
                 A  D
When it's almost 3AM
                     G
When you decide to show?
G                      A                D
You're gonna tell me where you've been
                    G
Don't spare me the details, I wanna know

What does he look like?
A
What does he talk like?
Bm                       Em
Thought you wanted to make this work
      G              A
But you're sending me mixed signals


[Bridge]
Em                           Bm F#m
And in the dusk we fall apart
Em
The sun's got his elbow
                   A
In the rib cage of town

I'm breaking down


[Chorus]
G               A  D
And it's almost 3AM
                     G
When you decide to show?
G                      A              D
You're gonna tell me where you've been
                     G
Don't sugarcoat it, girl, I want the blow by blow

What does he look like?
A
What does he talk like?
Bm                       Em
Thought you wanted to make this work
      G              A              D
But you're sending me mixed signals
G              A
Yeah, sending me mixed signals


[Outro]
G         A
Darling, darling believe me
D           G
Know that, no, you don't need me
G                 A
Break up, you know It won't please me
D            G
Sweetheart, let me down easy
               A
Cut me loose, baby, don't tease me
Bm       Em
Oh Lord, let me down easy
G        A
Sending me mixed signals
