Verse 1:
Bb                         D7
If I kept a list of every single second

That I've lived
          Eb
There's no way in the world
     F
That my list would line up with yours
Bb
If I saw your top ten seconds
D7
I wouldn't make an honorable mention
Eb
But if you need a temporary love
F
I'd be number one

Chorus:
                  Bb
And you'd lead me on
         D7
Make me need you
         Eb
Waste my time

I'll win the race but
                     Ebm
I'll never reach the finish line

Verse 2:
Bb
Seconds are a bit specific
D7
But even if the list was minutes
Eb
There's no doubt in my mind
F
That yours would not compare to mine
Bb
 I know that you'll end it all
D7
And make our seconds expendable
   Eb
But don't you dare take my hand
F
I'll write this list again

Chorus:
Bb
And you'd lead me on
    D7
Make me need you
         Eb
Waste my time

I'll run the race
                              F
but I'll never reach the finish line
Bb
Lead me on
        D7
Tell me how much you like me
        Eb
Take my life

I'll do my best
                        Ebm
but there's no way I'll win this fight

Bridge:
Bb
Love me like you mean it
        D7
for the short time that we spend
   Eb
And when you leave, do it quietly
   Bb                  F
so I don't think that it's the end
Bb
We were never special
      Dm7
I was not too blind for that
         Eb
You know passion doesn't make up
        F
for the sympathy you lack

Chorus:
        Bb
And you lead me on
        D7
make me need you
         Eb
waste my time

I'll run the race
                         F
but I'll never reach the finish line
Bb
Lead me on
        D7
Tell me how much you like me
        Eb
Take my life

I'll do my best
                        F
but there's no way I'll win this fight

Outro:
Bb
Lead me on
        D7
make me need you
         Eb
waste my time

I'll run the race
                         Ebm
