Verse:
    Bm
I comb the crowd and pick you out
    G               Em              Bm
My mouth moves too fast for you to figure it out

It starts eyes closed to fingers crossed
    G     Em      Bm
"To I swear, I say"
    G     Em      Bm
"To I swear, I say"

Pre-chorus:
           G                        Em
To hands between legs, to "whatever it takes"
    Bm                       A
To drinks at the club to the bar
       Gb             G
To the keys to your car
          Em                      Bm         A
To hotel stairs to the emergency exit door

Chorus:
        D                          Dmaj7
To the love, I left my conscience pressed
                          Bm
Between the pages of the Bible in the drawer
 D                           G               Bm
"What did it ever do for me" I say (I say, I say, I say)
          D                 G
It never calls me when I'm down
             Bm
Love never wanted me

But I took it anyway
D                    G
Put your ear to the speaker
                      Bm
And choose love or sympathy
            D
But never both
G            Bm
Love never wanted me

Verse:
   Bm
"I hoped you choked

And crashed your car"
G         Em                Bm
Hey "tear catcher", that's all that you are
Bm
and ever were
Bm
From the start
G   Em    Bm
I swear, I say
G   Em    Bm
I swear, I say

Pre-chorus:
           G                        Em
To hands between legs, to "whatever it takes"
    Bm                       A
To drinks at the club to the bar
       Gb             G
To the keys to your car
          Em                      Bm         A
To hotel stairs to the emergency exit door

Chorus:
        D                          Dmaj7
To the love, I left my conscience pressed
                          Bm
Between the pages of the Bible in the drawer
 D                           G               Bm
"What did it ever do for me" I say (I say, I say, I say)
          D                 G
It never calls me when I'm down
             Bm
Love never wanted me

But I took it anyway
D                    G
Put your ear to the speaker
                      Bm
And choose love or sympathy
            D  G  A
But never both

Through the keyhole I watched you dress, kiss and tell
