[Verse] D Em
                        Em  D  
Spent a week in a dusty library

                        D  Em   
Waiting for some words to jump at me

                         Em  D
We met by a trick of fate

                            G
[tab]              D
We met by the moon at the silvery lake

            G
You came my way 

                       D
I said, "I want you to stay"
[Verse]
Em
You with your dietary restrictions

D
Said you loved me with a lot of conviction

Em
I was waiting to be struck by lightning

D                                    G
Waiting for somebody exciting like you

                       D
Oh the thing that you do

                G
You make me go woo

                         D
With the things that you do you do you do
[Chorus]
               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G
But love I couldn't hold it

               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G     A
But love I couldn't hold it
[Verse]
Em
I'll be criticized for lending out my art

D
I was criticized for letting you break my heart

Em
Why wouldn't I stand for disappointed looks?

D                                G                    D
I'm fully grown but I'm on tenterhooks with the looks

         G                    D
On tenterhooks, ooh, with the looks the looks the looks
[Chorus]
               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G
But love I couldn't hold it

               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G     A
But love I couldn't hold it
[Interlude] Em - D (repeat) [Verse]
Em                                     Em  D
Relationships were something I used to do

                                       D  Em
Convince me they are better for me and you

                         Em  D
We met by a trick of fate
French navy my sailor mate [Chorus]
               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G
But love I couldn't hold it

               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G
But love I couldn't hold it

               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G
But love I couldn't hold it

               Em
I wanted to control it

                    G     A
But love I couldn't hold it
