1. I've driven round in circles for three
hours,

it
was bound to happen that I'd end up at yours.

I temporarily forgot
that there's better days to come,

I thought that I would
give you just one more chance.

2. You think you are complicated, deep mystery
to all,
C Am F
well, it's taken me a
while to see, you're not so special.
C Am F
All
energy, no meaning, with a lot of words,

so
paper thin that one real feeling
could knock you down
C Am

And I've seen,

3. So see you when you're 40, lost and all
alone
C
Am F
being comforted by
strangers you'll never need to know.
C Am F
Not sad because you
lost me, but sad because you thought
C Am - F
it
was cool to be sad.
C

You
think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd,
C
well, if you had walked past me today,
Am F
I
wouldn't have picked you out,

picked you out,
