VERSE I
Dm Dm Bb Bb F F
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
C C
You were always crazy like that
Dm Dm Bb Bb
I watched from my window,
F F C C
always felt I was outside looking in on you
Dm Dm
You were always the mysterious one
Bb Bb
with dark eyes and careless hair,
F F C C
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care
Dm Dm Bb Bb F F
Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
C C
besides some comment on the weather


BRIDGE:

Gm Gm
Well in case you failed to notice,
Bb Bb
In case you failed to see,
F F
This is my heart bleeding before you,
C C
This is me down on my knees


CHORUS:
Bb Bb C C F F C C Bb Bb
These foolish games are tearing me apart
Bb Bb C C F F C C Bb Bb
You're thoughtless words are breaking my heart
Dm Dm
You're breaking my heart


VERSE II
Dm Dm Bb Bb
You were always brilliant in the morning
F F C C
Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee
Dm Dm Bb Bb
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you,
F F
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
C C
As I clumsily strummed my guitar
Dm Dm
You'd teach me of honest things
Bb Bb
Things that were daring, things that were clean
F F C C
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
Dm Dm Bb Bb
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back
F F C C
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you


BRIDGE:
Gm Gm Bb Bb
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else
F F
Somebody who gave a damn,
C C
Somebody more like myself

REPEAT CHORUS.

D D - Bb Bb - F F - C C

D D Bb Bb F F
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
C C
you were always crazy like that...
