My favorite song from Ben Gibbard's Former Lives album, and my first UG submission! Real easy and fun to play. Eeenjoy!
  A                        
You call a truce and then you start a fight,

  A
you change your signals like a traffic light

                Bm                  A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.

  A
Around your heart you've tied a fishing line,

  A
You cast it out there just to see who'll bite

                Bm                   A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.

  E                          Bm
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep

  D                               A
when I start thinkin' 'bout what you do to me.

  E                          Bm
You're like a flower garden buried in snow,

          E           A
you're a hard one to know.

  A
You give your love out like an auctioneer.

  A
Your moves are jumpy and your words aren't clear

                Bm                  A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.

  A
First you smother then you disengage 

  A
Your tears of joy dissolve to tears of rage

                Bm                  A
cause you're a hard, a hard one to know.

  E                          Bm
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep

  D                               A 
when I start thinkin' 'bout what you do to me.

  E                          Bm
You drag your feet as you swing to and fro,

          E           A
you're a hard one to know.
F#m D A F#m D Bm D Dm A
  E                           Bm
I toss and turn but I just can't get to sleep

  D                               A
when I start thinking 'bout what you do to me.

  E                           Bm
You're like a flower garden buried in snow,

          E           A
you're a hard one to know.

 E                            Bm
And I try to love ya but you won't let me in.

 D                         A
You say it's ending before it can begin.

 E                             Bm
You tell to stay and then you tell me to go,

 E
you're a hard one to know.
