Chords

and this is what I see Tegan playing. Note that the chorus uses barre chords for F and G. For the rest of the song it's easier to play F with just the middle four strings. [Intro] (piano part) A F G x2 [Verse 1]
Am       F                   G
  Do you remember I searched you out?
How I climbed your citys walls
Am       F              G
  Do you remember me as devout?
How I prayed for your calls [Pre-chorus]
Am  G    F
  I stood still
It's what I did
Am    G    C          F
  Love like ours just never fits
[Chorus]
F               G
 I stuck around

              F
I did behave

              G
I saved you every time

        F
I was a fool for love

         G
I was a fool for love

         F     G
I was a fool

        F      G
I was a fool
(piano part) Am F G [Verse 2]
Am         F                G
  Then you blamed me and blocked me out
How long did you think I'd last?
Am         F                G
  Then you disappeared for weeks to pout
How many times could I pack? [Pre-chorus]
Am   G     F
  But stand still is all I did

 Am    G    C          F
  Love like ours just never fits
[Chorus]
F               G
 So I stuck around

              F
I did behave

              G
I saved you every time

         F
I was a fool for love

         G
I was a fool for love

        F    G
I was a fool

        F    G
I was a fool
[Verse 3]
F
 If you're worried

       G
That I mighta changed

F                      G
 Left behind all of my foolish ways

F                        G
 You best be looking for somebody else

             F
Without a foolish heart

G
 A foolish heart
[Pre-chorus]
Am   G     F
  But stand still is all we did

Am    G    C         F
  Love like ours is never fixed
[Chorus]
F               G
  So I stuck around

              F
I did behave

              G
I saved you every time

         F
I was a fool for love

         G
I was a fool for love

        F    G
I was a fool

        F    G
I was a fool

        F    G
I was a fool

        F    G
I was a fool
