[Verse]

G
Having been by that old bank tower
C                              D       G
I'm inclined to wonder why you feel so strong
G
You can't have really seen the hour
                             C            D7sus4
If you think she's trying to do you wrong
G
I see you got that lump in your throat
C                     D              G
I hear you mumbling, "That's all she wrote."
G                                 C        D7sus4
Love is in the next room drinking antidote

[Chorus]

G  F                   D       G
You ought to know that girl by now
F                           G
She'll never settle down anyhow
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
F                         G
You let your heart go too fast

[Verse]

G
Broken glass turns back to flint and sand
C                       D    G
I only cease to love as love demands
G
As you know it takes a while to clap those
C                        D7sus4
Fragments from your idle hands
G
Couple months could dry a sea of tears
C                           D        G
Leave only salt beneath our dried up piers
G                                        C            D7sus4
We won't believe we cared, I swear, in a couple years

[Chrous]

G  F                   D       G
You ought to know that girl by now
F                           G
She'll never settle down anyhow
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
F                         G
You let your heart go too fast

[Bridge]

Bb
If time heals all wounds, don't you know that
D
Time also deals them
Bb                    D
The days go by, and everybody feels them
Bb
We struggle with our fates
        D
But our action only seals them

[Solo]

[Verse]

G
They say that murder ain't the fault of the weapon
C                  D         G
I'm smoking sad to be the gun
G
I want to blow you all away, but I don't want to put no
C               D7sus4
Bullets into anyone
G
I see the feathers that infringe your heart
C                          D         G
I see the blood ooze from around the dart
G
Cupid spites the sense that keeps two
C                 D7sus4
Mismatched souls apart

[Chorus]

G  F                   D       G
You ought to know that girl by now
F                           G
She'll never settle down anyhow
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
F                         G
You let your heart go too fast

G  F                   D       G
You ought to know that girl by now
F                             G
She'll never turn you down anyhow
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
F                         G
You let your heart go too fast

[Outro]

G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
G   F        C            G
You let your heart go too fast
