Introduction:
E Esus4E
E A
Well you say, that I treat you like a book on a shelf.
E F#4 A
I don't take you out that often cause i know i've completed you
E Esus4E
and that why you are here.
A E Esus4E
That is the reason you stay here.
F#m A E Esus4E
How awful that must feel.
E A
You said you'd be my dream. I could have you every night,
E F#4 A
and if, by morning I, I'd forgotten you, well, no big deal it'd be alright
E Esus4E
cos you are the reoccurring kind.
A E Esus4E
You are the re-occurr-ing kind.
F#m A E Esus4E
You never really leave my mind
E A
Are you the love of my lifetime? Because there have been times I have had my doubts
E F#4 A
We were just kids when i first kissed you in the attic of my parents house
E Esus4E
and I wish we where there now
A E Esus4E
It took so long to figure out
F# A E Esus4E
What this book has been about
E A
Now I write when I'm away letters that you'll never read
E F#4 A
You said go explore those other women, the ge-ogra-phy of their bod-ies
E Esus4E
but there is just one map you'll need
A E Esus4E
You are a boom-erang. You'll see.
F#m A E Esus4E
You will return to me
E A F#4
You Will, you Will...

If you don't, the this book is all lies. If you don't, then my plans would all
E A F#4
be ruined. If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way i drank before
A E
And I just wouldn't have a future anymore.
