D D  Em Em 

Em Em D D
Spent a week in a dusty library
D D Em Em
Waiting for some words to jump at me
Em Em D D
We met by a trick of fate
G G
French navy my sailor mate
D D
We met by the moon at the silvery lake
G G
You came my way
D D
I said, "I want you to stay"




Em Em
You with your dietary restrictions
D D
Said you loved me with a lot of conviction
Em Em
I was waiting to be struck by lightning
D D G G
Waiting for somebody exciting like you
D D
Oh the thing that you do
G G
You make me go woo
D D
With the things that you do you do you do



Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G A A
But love I couldn't hold it




Em Em
I'll be criticized for lending out my art
D D
I was criticized for letting you break my heart
Em Em
Why wouldn't I stand for disappointed looks?
D D G G D D
I'm fully grown but I'm on tenterhooks with the looks
G G D D
On tenterhooks, ooh, with the looks the looks the looks




Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G A A
But love I couldn't hold it



Em Em - D D (repeat)




Em Em Em Em D D
Relationships were something I used to do
D D Em Em
Convince me they are better for me and you
Em Em D D
We met by a trick of fate

French navy my sailor mate


[chorus]

Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em Em
I wanted to control it
G G A A
But love I couldn't hold it




Em Em D D (repeat and fade)
