A                                             A A7 
I don't believe everything happens for a reason 
D                                                    D 
To us romantics out here, that amounts to high treason 
A                                        A A7 
I don't go in for your star-crossed lovers 
D 
In the heart of a skeptic 
             G  
There's a question that still hovers near 


Verse 

C       F  
For it begs the question 
C          F 
How did I ever find you 
C                F 
Now you got me writing love songs 
C                F 
With a common refrain like this one here,  
C F    
baby 

C F x2 
C Em Am 

Am            F          C  
And all your left handed kisses 
             G    Em     Am 
Were just prelude to another 
F                C            G  Em  Am 
Prelude to your back handed love song,  
F  C 
baby 

C        F 
But it begs a question 
C          F 
How did I ever find you 
C         F                 C 
Drifting gently through the gyre 
          F            C           F    C   F  C  
Of the great Sargasso sea, Atlantic Ocean 
          F            C     F   C 
Got me writing love songs 
                 F                     
With a common refrain like this one here 


Solo 

Am F C G Em x4 


Verse 

Am     F                  C 
The point your song here misses 
                  G     Em  Am 
Is that if you really loved me 
Am             F   
You'd risk more than a few 50 cent 
C             G      Em   Am  
Words in your backhanded love song 
       F            
So it begs a question 
C           G    Em   Am 
How did I ever find you 
           F                  C 
Drifting gently through the gyre 
         G       Em    Am        F      C   G Em Am 
Of the great Sargasso sea, Atlantic Ocean 

Am     F                   C 
The point your song here misses 
              G     Em     Am 
You got me writing love songs 
              F          C 
Is that you really love me 
                  G      Em         Am  
With a common refrain like this one here, here (Baby) 
F             C               G      Em         Am 
Is prelude to another of your backhanded love song 

Coda/Outro 

E|--0--2--4--| 
A A A7 Now it's time for a handsome little bookend D D Now it's time to tie up all the loose ends A A A7 Am I still a skeptic or did you make me a believer? D If you hesitate, you'll hear the click of the receiver
