Verse 1:
E
I see your big eyes staring at me
                       B
Sticking around for too long
                                  E
You said your girlfriend treats you badly
                      E
Nervous, quiet touch on my arm
E
Both know you got something to ask me
                      B
But you'll keep it to yourself
                           E
Both know the conversation last week
E
Tears and tequila made the secrets come out

Chorus:
E                 B
If we're starting something
Gb                   Abm   Gb E
It'll be the start of the end
E                B
Don't want another lover
Gb                        Abm      Gb
If it means losing you as a friend

Post-chorus:
E B Gb
I hope you understand
E B Gb
I hope you understand
E B Gb
I hope you understand
E B Gb
I hope you understand

Verse 2:
E
On our way home in a taxi
                    B
I'm staring out the window
                           E
Far away, but you're right beside me
                         E
Head is spinning on this roundabout
E
You usually sing the loudest
                          B
Haven't said a word in a few songs
 E
Apartments turned to houses

See you soon 'cause this is my stop
Gb
This is where I get off

Chorus:
E                 B
If we're starting something
Gb                   Abm   Gb E
It'll be the start of the end
E                B
Don't want another lover
Gb                         Abm      Gb
If it means losing you as a friend

Post-chorus:
E B Gb
I hope you understand
E B Gb
I hope you understand
E B Gb
I hope you understand
E B Gb
I hope you understand

Bridge:
E
I'm sorry, sorry for the things I never said
B
Your body language tells me just what's in your head
E
Darling, darling, can we smoke a cigarette?
Abm
Blame it on a past life, don't gotta make a mess
E
I'm sorry, sorry for the things I never said
B
Your body language tells me just what's in your head
E
Darling, darling, can we smoke a cigarette?
Abm
Blame it on a past life, don't gotta make a mess

Chorus:
E                 B
If we're starting something
Gb                  Abm   Gb E
It'll be the start of the end
E                B
Don't want another lover
Gb                         Abm      Gb
If it means losing you as a friend

Post-chorus:
E Gb Abm
