The entire song consistently uses the progression: D A C#m F#m (If you'd like, you can throw in an E between the F#m and D) [Verse 1]
D                     A  
Don't say yes if you can't say no,

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

D                         A
Squatted on the doorstep, swollen on the blow

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

D                   A 
Halfway starts with happiness for me

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

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

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

D                   A 
No more hard-headed Saturdays,

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

D                           A 
Tell me one thing you would never do

C#m                   F#m          E
I was looking for a hooker when I found you
[Pre-Chorus]
        D                   A 
You've got my eyes, you've got my eyes

            C#m                      F#m          E
You'll never be mine, ah, but you've got my eyes
[Chorus]
          D         A 
When you lie, I'll cover it up

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

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

         C#m        F#m          E      E
When you come undone, I'll cover it up
[Verse 2]
D                 A 
So pent up, I was coming home to you

C#m                     F#m            E
Happy in the nighttime, howlin' at the moon

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

C#m                          F#m       E
There's something about you I hold on to
[Pre-Chorus]
        D                   A 
You've got my eyes, you've got my eyes

            C#m                      F#m          E
You'll never be mine, ah, but you've got my eyes
[Chorus]
          D         A 
When you lie, I'll cover it up

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

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

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

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

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

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

          C#m              F#m          E
When you come undone, I'll cover it up
[Bridge]
      D                     A 
They got it, they want it, they give it away

     C#m                   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#m                   F#m              E
They got it, they want it, they give it away
[Outro]
      D                     A 
They got it, they want it, they give it away
(When you lie, I'll cover it up)
     C#m                   F#m              E
They got it, they want it, they give it away
(When you hide, I'll cover it up)
      D                     A 
They got it, they want it, they give it away
(When you cry, I'll cover it up)
     C#m                   F#m          E
They got it, they want it, they give it away
(When you come undone, I'll cover it up)
