[D]
My friends become my foes and my foes become my friends.
I tend to fall in love with the girls my boyfriend ends.
I don't work nine to five but I'll always work the weekends.
And each time I get the world in my fingers something happens.
I'm [G] working backwards, forwards, left to right.
[Gm] And I'm pretty darn hard-headed but I can't make up my mind.
[D] I'll make a tragedy of a fairy [G] tale but only when the sun is [D] shining.
I'll be the voice of hope in your darkest [G] hour.
I'm an expert in the silver [D] mine.
I'll be there when you need me for all the big [G] things.
But I'm pretty magnetic at perfect [A] timing and that's the way it seems to [D] go for me.
I go to bed at eight and wake up at four thirty.
Mostly I drink like [D] a fish and tend to be deflated.
I am a perfectionist but only when things get [G] dirty.
[D] [G] I cannot [D] stand [G] small talk but [D] I'm great at being wordy.
[G] I'd rather leave you first but then I'll be begging you to come back.
[Gm] And when I get real quiet you know I'm about to attack.
[D] I'll take a walk in the rain or a drive in the [G] dark.
Only when everyone's [D] celebrating I'll dig into your pain and tear it [G] apart.
But only to help the heart to stay.
[D] I like to figure things out and make everything [G] right.
But I'm secretly thrilled when [A] everything's fainting.
That's the way it seems to [B] go for me.
[G] If you fall for the part that's brooding and [Gm] dark you'll never discover the rest of my [Bm] heart.
And I want you to see that there's so much to see.
[B] Just before I declare you never knew [D] me.
He's with the small stuff like the world around was over.
I come in down and we make breakfast for each other.
Our friends all thought we fit so perfectly [G] together.
[D] He likes what he can have and I sure like bad weather.
[G] I may have left him first but I think he'd been leaving for some time.
I [Gm] feel like begging him to come back [G] but I can't make up my mind.
[D] I'll take a boxing match over a quiet [G] night.
But only to wait for better dreams.
[D] I'll back the underdog in any fight.
[G] Only to fight for something with me.
[D] I'm in it to win it most of the time.
[G] And if it goes down I'll be kicking and screaming.
[A] That's the way it seems to go [G] for me.
Yeah, [A] that's the way it seems [D] to go [G] for me.
Oh, [A] that's the way it seems to go [D] for me.
