Chords

[Intro] Dm Bb F C [Verse]
Dm            Bb                        F
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,

                C
You were always crazy like that

Dm                Bb
I watched from my window,

                  F                C
always felt I was outside looking in on you

          Dm
You were always the mysterious one 

     Bb
with dark eyes and careless hair, 

          F                             C
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care 

         Dm          Bb                       F
Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say 

             C
besides some comment on the weather
[Pre-chorus]
         Gm
Well in case you failed to notice, 

    Bb
In case you failed to see, 

F
This is my heart bleeding before you, 

C
This is me down on my knees
[Chorus]
Bb             C        F   C       Dm
These foolish games are tearing me apart

Bb                 C         F     C      Bb
You’re thoughtless words are breaking my heart

                Dm
You're breaking my heart
Bb F C [Verse]
                Dm               Bb
You were always brilliant in the morning

             F           C
Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee 

          Dm                       Bb
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, 

                            F
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones

      C
As I clumsily strummed my guitar 

Dm
You'd teach me of honest things 

Bb
Things that were daring, things that were clean 

F                                 C
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean 

      Dm                           Bb
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back 

F                                    C
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you
[Pre-chorus]
Gm                                     Bb
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else 

F
Somebody who gave a damn, 

C
Somebody more like myself
[Chorus]
Bb             C        F   C       Dm
These foolish games are tearing me apart

Bb                 C         F     C      Bb
You’re thoughtless words are breaking my heart

                Dm
You're breaking my heart
[Interlude] Bb F C Dm [Outro]
Dm            Bb                        F
You took your coat off and stood in the rain, 

                            C
you were always crazy like that
