[Em] Spent a week in a dusty library
[D]
[C] Waiting for some [D] words to jump in [Em] me
We met by a trick of [C#] fate
French Navy, my sailor mate
[G]
We met by [D] the moon of a silvery lake
You came [G] my way
[G] Said I want you [D] to stay
You [Em]
and your dietary restrictions
[D]
Said you love me with a lot of conviction
[Em]
I was waiting to be struck by lightning
[D]
Waiting for somebody exciting [G] like you
Oh, the [D] thing that you do
You make me [G] go
With the thing that [D] you do, you do, you do
I wanted to [Em] control it
But love, [G] I couldn't hold it
I wanted to [Em] control it
But love, I couldn't hold [A] it
[Em]
I'll be criticized for lending out my [D] arm
I was criticized for letting you break my [Em] heart
What would a stamp of disappointment [D] last?
Fully grown, but I'm on just the verge
Ooh, [D] with the last, I'm tamed [G] now
Ooh, with the [D] last, the last, the last
I wanted [Em] to control it
But [G] love, I couldn't hold it
I wanted [Em] to control it
But love, [G] I couldn't hold [A] it

Relationships [C] were something I used [Bm] to
Convince me they [E] are better for me [Em] and you
We met by a trick of fate
