[SEQUENCE] The mainstay of the song is played through the Em and C chords. Throughout the song the D string is on and off for these two chords. Listen to the track to get an idea of the timing I am referring to and the strumming pattern. Enjoy. [Intro] Em C X2 [Verse 1]
Em                                  C             Em 
To say the things I want to say to you would be a crime

                                   C              Em   
To admit Im still in love with you after all this time

           D                              Em
Id rather let you touch my arm until you die

D                                          C
Seduce with me with your charms until Im drunk on them

                     Em
Go home and drink in bed

           D                  C
And never let myself be in love like that again
Em C [Verse 2]
Em                             C              Em
Light a cigarette and think of you and walk away

                                   C           Em
Turning all the words around in my head I wont say

D                                     C
Because all of these triangles and squares

                        Em
the memory we seem to share

            D                  C
replays a distant love that plays my records on
Em [Chorus]
D       C      Em       D          C
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again

D       C      Em       D          C(Continue)
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again
[Verse 3]
Em                                 C             Em
To say the words I want to say to you would be a lie

                                    C                 Em
By the time I get the courage, I am drunk and you are tired

D                                C
Alone in this basement where I will write these songs

    Em                  D          C
The things Ill never say to you again and you know why
Em [Chorus]
D       C      Em        D        C
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again

D       C      Em        D        C
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again

D       C      Em        D        C
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again

D       C      Em        D        C
Ne-ver let my-self love like that again
