A                 E
 A firm kick in the pants
      Bm             D            E
This last chance to get things right
A                 E           Bm
 This was one time I closed an eye
        D          E
Looked away from you

[Pre-chorus 1]
F#m
 Look out for yourself tonight
D
 Sometimes I have to get things right

[Chorus 1]
A        E            Bm         F#m
I never meant what I said to you
        A            E              Bm      D
To give up all the things that you love to do
A           E               Bm         F#m
I'd never guess that you'd do me wrong
      A       E         Bm        D
I'll never accept that dance and song

[Verse 2]
A                  E
 A little time to adjust
        Bm      D      E
Would be just what we need
A                             E              Bm
 I've meant to tell you what I think that you think
     D             E
When I cross your mind

[Pre-chorus 2]
F#m
 Forgone, stressed at the light
D
 What's wrong with being uptight

[Chorus 2]
A        E         Bm        F#m
I never say what I intend to
 A           E         Bm      D
But does it mean that much to you

A            E            Bm           F#m
I'd a close call with a glitch in time
     A           E         Bm    D
Are you really that happy to be mine

[Break]
 E                 D
No, I'm not disguising
E             D
All that fighting
      E           D     F#m
And dreams not coming true

[Solo]
C#m E B F#m C#m E B

[Bridge]
    F#m          C#m  E              B
And I will play some light from the sun
    F#m     C#m  E   B
The world by my side
    F#m         C#m   E      B
And I will see dawn as a forlorn
 F#m     C#m    E B
maiden in the sky
    F#m        C#m E           B
And I will play a song of thunder
 F#m      C#m E   B
you may recognize
        F#m   C#m   E         B
You make a never, that's forever
  F#m           C#m D E
Knowing what you deny

[Verse 3]
A                 E          Bm
 When I revisit the past it's a blast
           D         E
I've just gotta move on
A                    E           Bm
 I've just let down someone I relied on
       D          E
And I don't see why

[Pre-chorus 3]
F#m
 How'd we pretty up that speech
D
 M.C. talking through me

[Chorus 3]
A           E              Bm        F#m
I've never done what I set out to do
 A             E            Bm       D
Don't come to me 'cuz I'll run from you
 A           E            Bm         F#m
Left out of life would I really care
 A           E                    Bm      D
Not a whole lot, there's nothing for me there

[Outro]
E              D       E              D
I'll never forget the limits that we set
 E                D   F#m
Back when it was our moon

       E               D        E                D
And I never made a pretence of living with good sense
      E               D    F#m
It's really not my strong suit
