G Am
Am G
Spent a week in a dusty library
G Am
Waiting for some words to jump at me
Am G
We met by a trick of fate
C
French navy my sailor mate
G
We met by the moon at the silvery lake
C
You came my way
G
I said, "I want you to stay"
Am
You with your dietary restrictions
G
Said you loved me with a lot of conviction
Am
I was waiting to be struck by lightning
G C
Waiting for somebody exciting like you
G
Oh the thing that you do
C
You make me go woo
G
With the things that you do you do you do
Am
I wanted to control it
C
But love I couldn't hold it
Am
I wanted to control it
C D
But love I couldn't hold it
Am
I'll be criticized for lending out my art
G
I was criticized for letting you break my heart
Am
Why wouldn't I stand for disappointed looks?
G C G
I'm fully grown but I'm on tenterhooks with the looks
C G
On tenterhooks, ooh, with the looks the looks the looks
Am
I wanted to control it
C
But love I couldn't hold it
Am
I wanted to control it
C D
But love I couldn't hold it
Am - G (repeat)
Am Am G
Relationships were something I used to do
G Am
Convince me they are better for me and you
Am G
We met by a trick of fate
French navy my sailor mate
(chorus)
Am
I wanted to control it
C
But love I couldn't hold it
Am
I wanted to control it
C
But love I couldn't hold it
Am
I wanted to control it
C
But love I couldn't hold it
Am
I wanted to control it
C D
But love I couldn't hold it
