Lyrics

Close e nough to start a war,

God on ly knows what we’re fight ing (Ab)for,

all that I say,

you al ways say more.

I can’t keep up with your (Fm)turn ing ta bles, un der (Ab)your thumb I can’t (Bb)breathe.

So (Cm7)I won’t (Abmaj7)let you (Eb)close e nough to hurt me, no (Cm7)I won’t (Abmaj7)res cue (Eb)you just to de sert me.

I can’t give you

the (Ab)heart you (Eb)think you (Bb)gave me, it’s time to (Fm)say (Eb)good (Ab)bye

to turn ing ta bles,

to turn ing ta bles.

Un der hard est guise I see,

ooh,

where love is lost, your ghost is found.

I braved a hun dred storms to leave you,

as hard as you try, no, I will nev er be knocked down.

turn ing ta bles.
