listen baby to what i say

Am F C G
broken tables , you’re unstable

C
( looks like someone has won )

these pirate games
F
( i’m loading up your gun )

and ready to take all the blame
Am
( but still i play along )

while sinking in sand i find
A#

C
( it’s just how high you climb )

there’s ivory in this spin
F
( be cleaning up tomorrow )

keeping what you’ve left behind
Am
( you need a little faith to shine )

to know the sun will set
A#
it will be dark by eight
C
and winter’s as cold as it gets

F
wanna make you hear , gotta walk away
G
wanna make you dance , gotta move this way
Am
wanna hear you breathe without a doubt
F G
wanna make you sing , wanna make you shout

Am F C G
broken tables , you’re unstable
Am F
listen honey , listen well
C G
i’m only your’s soon as you get well
Am F C G
you’re designer , nothing finer

C
( no , i’m not in denial )

i see my violins
F
( it’s taken you awhile )

watching all this soaking in
Am
( was never made of tin )

can’t keep it up no more
A#
but like it’s alway been
C
i’m sleeping underneath your door

F
gotta stop my heart , it’s running wild
G
i gotta tie a knot , no i aint no child

Am F
listen baby to what i say
C G
you only want what you’ve thrown away
Am F C G
broken tables , you’re unstable
Am F
listen closer , ear to a can
C G
i’m only here under your command
Am F C G
got three wishes , clean your dishes

Dm A#
i don’t mind that baby
F C
i don’t mind that lately
Dm A#
if you’re coming my way
Am
i don’t mind
C
i don’t mind

Am F C G
