  			C                      E 
Hold my hand while you cut me down 
       Am                           E 
it had only just begun but now it's over now 
           C                                E 
and you're in the heat of moments with your heart playing up cold 
Am                              E 
I'm between the middle watching hastiness unfold 
   C                               E 
in my eyes you were smiling in the spotlight dancing  
          Am                       E  
with the night when I fell off your mind 



 
    F 
I'm tired of trying 
     C              E 
your teasing ain't enough 
          F 
fed up of biding your time 
       C                 E 
when I don't get nothing back 
    F        C    E        F  
and for, and for what, and for 
       C                 E 
when I don't get nothing back 
         C 
Boy, I'm tired 



C                        E 
where do you go when you stayed behind 
         Am                             E 
I looked up and inside down and outside only to find 
  C                                E 
a double taking punching hard and laughing at my smile 
  Am                       E 
I get closer you obviously prefer her 



  
    F 
I'm tired of trying 
     C              E 
your teasing ain't enough 
          F 
fed up of biding your time 
       C                 E 
when I don't get nothing back 
    F        C    E        F  
and for, and for what, and for 
       C                 E 
when I don't get nothing back 
         F 
Boy, I'm tired of trying 

     C              E 
your teasing ain't enough 
          F 
fed up of biding your time 
       C                 E 
when I don't get nothing back 
    F        C    E        F  
and for, and for what, and for 
       C                 E 
when I don't get nothing back 
         C 
Boy, I'm tired
