Sam Roberts – Twist The Knife (Guitar)

C          G6              Am
I hear you knocking on the door,

    G6               C
but you ain't comin' in, no, no,

        G6       Am
to this house no more.

      G6       C
Cause it ain't like,

         G6            Am
it ain't like it was before.

    G6     C                   G6      Am
You went a-sailin' on for that distant shore.

C   G6  Am
Oh, oh, oh...

C            G6      Am
True, we had love so true, 

   G6     C
oh we had skies so blue,

       G6       Am
we had skies so blue.

G6 C           G6       Am
So I, I had my hopes up high,

     G6    C                        G6         Am
till all I heard was goodbye when I called for you.

F                   C         G6
I turn the key, you twist the knife,

        Am
I can't win,

           F

           C               Em                      Am
Now you're knockin' on the door but you can't come in.

   Am
Oh no...

                      C
So you take it on the chin,

         G6             Am
yeah you take it on the weak chin.

         G6        C
Then you do it all again and again,

        G6           Am
tell me when will it end.

    G6           C
And now you come back,

             G6         Am
oh yeah, you crawled on back,

          G6        C                               G6     Am
with your head held high and your book of lies in a burlap sack.

G6 C                         G6        Am     G6
   I just don't know, honey, what went wrong.

C                                G6      Am   G6
Love just can't grow when you're gone so long.

F                   C         G6
I turn the key, you twist the knife,

        Am
I can't win,

           F
no I can't win.

           C               Em                      Am
Now you're knockin' on the door but you can't come in.

Oh, you just don't know,

G6            C       G6       Am    G6
Which way the wind is going to blow.

C            G6    Am
No, you just don't know,

G6            C      G6       Am    G6
Just when the sky is going to fall.

              C
You've been a soldier,

              G6   Am
you've been a privateer,

           G6           C              G6      Am
now you're looking much older, yes you are, my dear.

           G6   C
Now you're back again,

         G6     Am
from the lion's den,

             G6           C
you've for a plagiarist's eye,

             G6     Am   G6
you've got a poison pen.

F                   C         G6
I turn the key, you twist the knife,

        Am
I can't win,

           F
no I can't win.

           C               Em                      Am

Oh, you just don't know,

G6            C       G6       Am    G6
Which way the wind is going to blow.

No, you just don't know,

G6            C      G6       Am    G6
Just when the sky is going to fall.

Love can bend you, love can break,

Am                             G6
hearts can mend and hearts can ache.

C                           G6
Life will give you what you take,

Am                              G6

Love can bend you, love can break,

Am                             G6
hearts can mend and hearts can ache.
