[Intro]
F#m E


[Verse 1]
[tab]D                     A
Don't say yes if you can't say no,

C#                    F#m          E
Victim of the system, say it isn't so

D                         A
Squatted on the doorstep, swollen on the blow

C#                   F#m       E
Leaving without you, can't say no

D                   A
Halfway starts with happiness for me

C#                  F#m           E
Halfway house, lost kitten in the street

D                          A
Hit me where it hurts, I'm coming home to lose

C#                     F#m         E
Kitten on the catwalk, high-heeled shoes

D                   A
No more hard-headed Saturdays,

C#                         F#m          E
They got it, they want it, they give it away

D                           A
Tell me one thing you would never do

C#                              F#m     E
I was looking for a hooker when I found you

D               A
  You've got my eyes,

C#             F#m E
  You've got my eyes

D              A
  You'll never be mine, 

C#                     F#m E
  Ah, but you've got my eyes

         D         A
When you lie, I'll cover it up

         C#         F#m      E
When you hide, I'll cover it up

         D         A
When you cry, I'll cover it up

         C#                F#m      E
When you come undone, I'll cover it up

D                 A
So pent up, I was coming home to you

C#                       F#m            E
Happy in the night-time, howlin' at the moon

D                      A
Sippin' on a cocktail, drinking in the loo

C#                            F#m     E
There's something about you I hold on to

D               A
  You've got my eyes,

C#             F#m E
  You've got my eyes

D              A
  You'll never be mine, 

C#                     F#m E
  Ah, but you've got my eyes

         D         A
When you lie, I'll cover it up

         C#         F#m      E
When you hide, I'll cover it up

         D         A
When you cry, I'll cover it up

            C#          F#m      E
When you're blind, I'll cover it up

         D         A
When you lie, I'll cover it up

         C#         F#m      E
When you hide, I'll cover it up

         D         A
When you cry, I'll cover it up

         C#                F#m      E
When you come undone, I'll cover it up

     D                          A
They got it, they want it, they give it away

     C#                         F#m       E
They got it, they want it, they give it away

     D                          A
They got it, they want it, they give it away

     C#                         F#m      E
They got it, they want it, they give it away

          D                               A
     They got it, they want it, they give it away

          C#                              F#m      E
     They got it, they want it, they give it away

          D                               A
     They got it, they want it, they give it away

          C#                              F#m      E
     They got it, they want it, they give it away
