Intro

A D D#m Bm D F#m E A

Verse

A C#m D C#m D Take me somewhere I'm not likely to forget A D Two singles to Birkenhead C#m D To thimbles in need of thread C#m A D Where do you go when you don't know you've done wrong? Bm A D Slipping on, running from, wakin' alone. Ohh

Chorus

A I'm coming round C#m D The words you gave me only fell to the ground D#m A D A I like fun, where's the fun in being alone? And counting scars C#m D You only hate the things that you are D#m I never get the things you say Bm D F#m D Though I'll smile anyway.

Bridge

A D D#m Bm D F#m E D

Post-Chorus

A And turning on your side C#m D You said, "Don't be too long." A I said I'll be right back E D Though I kept my fingers crossed A And sitting on your hands C#m D Well it kind of broke my heart A It wasn't in the plan E D When we went to Conway park A And as I'm slipping out C#m D You whispered, "Desperate times"

Outro

E You say that desperate times E D Call for desperate pleasures A They say that desperate times E D Call for desperate pleasures A They say that desperate times E D Call for desperate pleasures A They say that desperate times E D Call for desperate pleasures A They say that desperate times E D A E D C#m D A E D A E D (let ring)
