  			Intro: (A F#m)3x (G F# E)2x G A

     A
   Gonna find a way to cure this loneliness
   Yeah, I'll find a way to cure the pain
   If I said that you're my friend
   And our love would never end
   How long before I had your trust again
   I opened up the dorrs when it was cold outside
   Hopin' that you'd find your own way in
   But how can I protect you
   Or try not to neglect you
   When you won't take the love I have to give

       F#m
   I bought me an illusion
      A
   And I put it on the wall
    F#m
   I let it fill my head with dreams
      A
   And I had to have them all

       F#m                      G   F# E
   But, oh, the taste is never so sweet
   As what you'd believe it is
   Well, I guess it never is

     G    F#  E
   It's these prejudiced illusions
   That pump the blood

                         G A
   To the heart of the biz

         A
   You know I never thought
   That it could take so long
   You know I never knew how to be strong
   Yeah, I let you shape me
   But I fell as thought you raped me
   'Cause you climbed inside my world
   And in my songs
   So now I've closed the dorr
   To keep the cold outside
   Seems somehow I've found the will to live
   But how can I forget you
   Or try not to reject you

            A                              D
   When we both know it takes time to forgive

  G      A     G#  G
   Sweetness is a virtue
    F#         F    E Eb D        C
   And you lost your virtue long ago
         A       G#      G    F#
   You know I'd like to hurt you
        F     E      Eb  D            C
   But my conscience always tells me no
              A        G#  G          F#
   You could sell your body on the street
        F  E    Eb D
   To anyone whom you might meet
    C     A       G#     G        F#
   Who'd love to try and get inside
           F               E  D    C
   And bust your innocence open wide

              A
   'Cause my baby's got a locomotive
       A
   My baby's gone off the track
       A
   My baby's got a locomotive
                   A
   Gotta peel the bitch off my back
  A D  A   D   A             D  A D A
   I know it looks like I'm insane
  D A  D      A                A   D  A C
   Take a closer look I'm not to blame
      A
   No!

    A
   Gonna have some fun with my frustration
   Gonna watch the big screen in my head
   I'd rather take a detour
   'Cause this road ain't getting clearer
   Your train of thought has cut me off again
   Better to me that boy 'cause he's a wild one
   Better to me that boy for he's a man
   Sweetheart don't make me laugh
   You's getting too big for your pants
   And I's think maybe you should
   Cut on while you can

    F#m
   You can use your illusion
      A
   Let take you where it may
     F#m
   We live and learn
                       A
   And then sometimes it's best to walk away
  F#m                    G    F#
   Me, I'm just here hangin' on
   E
   It's my only place to stay at least
   For now anyway
     G   F#  E
   I've worked too hard for my illusions
                           G   A
   Just to throw them all away

        A
   I'm taking time for quiet consolation
   In passing by this love that's passed away
   I know it's never easy
   So why should you believe me
   When I've always got so many things to say
   Calling off the dogs a simple choice is made
   'Cause playful hearts
   Can sometimes be enraged
   You know I tried to wake you
   I mean how long could it take you

                                       D
   To open up your eyes and turn the page

  G     A    G#   G    F#
   Kindness is a treasure
                 F       E  Eb D
   And it's one towards me you've seldom shown
    C       A       G#  G     F#
   So I'll say it for good measure
      F    E      Eb  D            C
   To all the ones like you I've known
        A       G#        G        F#
   Ya know I'd like to shave your head
          F  E   Eb  D                C
   And all my friends could paint it red
           A       G#     G         F#
   'Cause love to me's a two way street
            F       E     D   C
   And all I really want is peace

              A
   'Cause my baby's got a locomotive
       A
   My baby's gone off the track
       A
   My baby's got a locomotive
                   A
   Gotta peel the bitch off my back
  A D  A   D   A             D  A D A
   I know it looks like I'm insane
  D A  D      A                A   D  A C
   Take a closer look I'm not to blame
      A  (C D)2x (G A)2x B A B G F# E G A F# G F#  
   No!                               F E Eb D C

      A      G#    G    F#
   Affection is a blessing
            F   E    Eb D              C
   Can you find it in your sorrid heart
       A                  G#    G
   I tried to keep this thing together
      F#     F   E     Eb  D       C
   But the tremor tore my pad apart
     A      G#           G       F#
   Yeah, I know it's hard to face
           F   E   Eb  D                   C
   When all we've worked for's gone to waste
               A         G#     G
   But you're such a stupid woman
            F#
   And I'm such a stupid man
        F      E         D       C
   But love like time's got its own plans

              A
   'Cause my baby's got a locomotive
       A
   My baby's gone off the track
       A
   My baby's got a locomotive
                   A
   Gotta peel the bitch off my back
  A D  A   D   A             D  A D A
   I know it looks like I'm insane
  D A  D      A                A   D  A C
   Take a closer look I'm not to blame
        D A D A D A D A
   Yeah
  A  D    A     D      A
   If love is blind I guess
             D  A     C  A G F Am G F G Am F Am F
   I'll buy myself a cane

    Am           F
   Love's so strange
    Am           F
   Love's so strange
    Am           F
   Love's so strange...
