Verse 1        

	     A 
If you just get it together and read my mind 

Then sleeping would be easy 
     D 
And then Ill be there to acquiesce 
                   E-A 
I confess Im in trouble 
          A 
Another afternoon of increments 

And asking the wrong questions 
      D 
Then you get up and leave again 
                        E-A 
Just as the evening threatens to set 


   A               D	       E 
Consider this now its not too late 
                   A	 Bm 
I have watched you change 
                   C#m 
The colour of the trap before girl 
F#    Bm	       E 
I have learned to wait 

Verse 2 
         A 
Most of the things that you say 

I dont understand but I will sit and listen 
D 
I nod along attentively 
                               A-E 
But the truth is I cant concentrate 

 


A   A               D	       E 
Consider this now its not too late 
                   A	 Bm 
I have watched you change 
                   C#m 
The colour of the trap before girl 
F#    Bm 
I have learned to wait 

          E 
Make no mistake 
         D	           Bm 
Well I have learned to wait 
         F#		                A 
And you have learned that you can make me 
  D			       Bm	 
I need something to sort me out 
         F# 
I need someone to come and shake me 
A        D 
And your exit calms me down 
        F# 
Before it infuriates me 
          Bm 
Girl Im in trouble 
             E                                A 
Wish youd just get it together and read my mind 

A 						         Bm-Dm 
La la la la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la 
A                                                        Bm-Dm 
La la la la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
