[Verse 1]
  Am                 Em           
I love it all, these games we play
  Am                 Em      
I close my eyes, you run away
    Am                  Em  
I'm sure I asked you to stay
    F              Dm
But now you're gone
  Am                       Em         
Today I feel the grey pulse in my head
  Am                      Em            
I turn off the lights and crawl into bed
  Am                      Em
I try to think of sunshine
                 F                           Dm     
But my body goes wet with the first crash of thunder

[Chorus]
Am      F     Am    F   
I don't think I can love
Am         Em        F          Dm  
Anyone but you dear, that's for sure

Am                        Em           
When it gets to four it's my turn to go
Am                  Em            
Oh the kiss, so alcoholic and slow
Am                           Em                    
Arranging me for Saturday, I thought you would know
       F                 Dm
That I always sleep alone

[Chorus]
Am      F     Am    F   
I don't think I can love
Am         Em        F          Dm  
Anyone but you dear, that's for sure

[Verse 3]
    Am       Em      Am       Em    
The upstairs room is cool and bright
       Am             Em         F         Dm   
We can go up there in summer and dance all night

[Bridge]
     Em                          Am              
Your sister started talking at a minute after ten
   Em                               Am        
So everyone jumped up and then fell over again
   Em                          Am         
In April you can join them and stare at me
        F              Dm  
At the ghost from your past
    Am              Em  
The ghost from your past
Am              Em  
Ghost from your past
Am              Em  
Ghost from your past
F  Dm

[Chorus]
Am      F     Am    F   
I don't think I can love
Am         Em        F          Dm  
Anyone but you dear, that's for sure
