E         F#m         A           B                                        
    No -      body's     perfect 

            E                      F#m

A            B

       E                      F#m                                     
Cause     trying to tell her       lies

          A            B                                            
from the     truth at     times

         G#7                             A       A                      
is like       trying to divide ice from     snow 

E               F#m             A        B                                
    And when I      knew it was     over 

   E                 F#m                                              
I     jumped into a      taxi and said just

A                   B                                               
     guess were to    go

         E                    F#m                                    
And the     driver turned a -       bout and said,

      A                  B                                          
Fi -     nding what you    want 

         G#7                             A       A

So     here I     sit

A                   A                                               
   rolling back to     bed

         B                                                       
Knowing     love is a hazard

G#m                C#m           A                                        
     That I never       guessed 

           E                 A                                      
But from     this   side of     morning

                  B       B/A -                                         
I couldn't care     less 

B/Ab        B/F#                E                                           
        I        couldn't care     less.

E        F#m          A            B                                       
   No -       body's     helpless 

               E            F#m                                       
Although I' -     ve never       felt this 

A                 B                                                 
   helpless be -     fore

     E                  F#m                                          
And     trying to per -       suade myself 

A                    B                                              
   not to think a -     bout her

         G#7                             A               A              
Is like       trying to tell the clouds     not to pour 

E            F#m            A         B                                    
   so I put       down the     bottle 

             E                      F#m                               
While in my     head time is col -       lapsing and the

A                B                                                  
   currents run     cold

    E                   F#m                                           
So     I can curse her       memory

     A             B                                                
But     don't try      telling me 

      G#7                                                          
that       she was not an emerald 

      A                                                          
in a     mountain of coal

                   G#7                                             
Or that there's a       crock of cures for cancer

       A                                                        
At the     end of the rainbow.

    B          B                                                    
So     here I     sit

A                   A                                               
   rolling back to     bed

         B                                                       
Knowing     love is a hazard

C#m               A           F#m                                         
    That I never     guessed 

           E                 A                                      
But from     this   side of     morning

                 B         B/A - B/Ab - B/F#                                        
I couldn't care     less 

     B                                                           
And     she's the kind of girl 

                  A                      E                          
who won't for -     give but will for -     get

    A                                                            
So     take my from this party, driver

B                                                               
   put me back to bed

   B                                                             
I     wanted to be loved 

              A                   E                                 
but just got     laughed at in -     stead

    A                       F#m         F#m                               
So     if this taxi is for        hire 

          A                                                     
I'll get    in the back

                  F#m                                              
Just to feel the       friction of the tarmac 

         B7                                                       
and the      tyres.

      E       F#m           A           B                                  
So       no -       body's     perfect 

            E                     F#m                                
and that's     something that I'm       sure

A           B                                                       
    she'll     know

And     trying to per -       suade myself 

A                    B                                              
   not to think a -      bout her

Is like       trying to tell the crockels not to     crow

         G#7                                                       
Or like       trying to tell the striker

        A                                                        
Not to      think about the goal

    B          B

Knowing     love is a hazard
