Untie me, I've said no vows

The train is getting way too loud

I gotta leave here my girl
C C/G C C/G
Get on with my lonely life

Just leave the ring on the rail

For the wheels to nullify

Until this turn in my head

I let you stay and you paid no rent

I spent twelve long months on the
C C/G C C/G
lam
G
That's enough sitting on the fence
C C/G C C/G
For the fear of breaking dams
Am C
I find a fatal flaw
F
In the logic of love
C G
And go out of my head

You love a sinking stone

It took me all of a year
C C/G C C/G
To put the poison pill to your ear
F C C/G C C/G
But now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground
G
You want to fight for this love
F
But honey you cannot wrestle a dove
C C/G C C/G
So baby it's clear
*Same as before Am C F C G*
You want to jump and dance
But you sat on your hands
And lost your only chance
Go back to your hometown
Get your feet on the ground
And stop floating around
I find a fatal flaw
In the logic of love
And go out of my head
You love a sinking stone
That'll never elope
So get used to used to the lonesome
Girl, you must atone some
Don't leave me no phone number there
*End on C*
