I've one more thing to ask

Tell the tiny chemicals  

    D#             F 
The ones you hold responsible 

     Em Bm C  D           Em Bm C D 
They lost me,          you lost me  

    Em                   Bm                       C 
Now everything inside me tells me I should run to you 

                   D  
And throw my arms around you 

Em                        Bm                
Hold your steaming crying cheek against my own  

    C                 D      
And tell you nothing's wrong 

     Dm7              C               F    
But wrong is what you were when you forgot

We were going on

We were going on
