Fixation(Keyboard chords)

	        
 


G                                      C         D 
I couldn't feel any more trapped than already I do 
G                                        C         D 
Stuck inside, stuck inside this state of mind with you 
                  Am                   D 
And yet you only smile like I'm your friend 
                Am                             D 
For now my happiness depends on how well I pretend 

G 
Can we forget that we are bound by all these 
C (or Cadd9 ) 
ropes and strings 
                    D 
That tie us up like this 
G 
And when we wake up we can go back to the world that 
C (or Cadd9) 
only wants us 
         D 
To be friends 
                Am                              D 
And I hope that when I sing you're looking up at me 
                  Am                                      D 
So you can see my eyes are filled with hope for what could be 

           G 
I know I'm bound to this fixation for as long as I stay here 
            C (or Cadd9 ) 
Sometimes I wish I could just leave 
                  D 
So you could come running after me 
         G 
And the perfect world we're after always seems to disappear 
                     C (or Cadd9 ) 
I wish that we could find a way 
                   D 
To make it out of here 


                         Am                                D 
But that would mean that all we've done would simply go to waste 
                Am                                  D 
I'm trying to convince myself we're better off this way 
                  Am                    D 
Because you only smile like I'm your friend 
                      Am 
I wish someone would shake this out of me 
              D 
Or shake it into you 


(Without picking patter - just one strum) 
                  Am                  D 
And yet you only smile like I'm your friend 
                Am                             D 
For now my happiness depends on how well I pretend
