Notes: this song is on piano with a few faint lead guitar riffs in C minor. I've roughly tabbed the main piano part, the rest I've just done as chords. For simplicity, I've used a capo, with all chords are relative to the capo.

VERSE 1: 
Am           G                  F 
  Suddenly I can't stay in this room. 
             Am                       G               F 
You'll never sway, and I have nothing left that I can think of to say. 
Am                    G              F 
  What do you want me to think of my thought? 
           Am                  G                      F 
Bear it in mind, if I cannot believe in me who will I then be? 
 
PRE-CHORUS: 
 Dm                             E           F             G 
    And so I'll run but not too far, incase you chase me, oh... 
 
CHORUS: 
Am     C              G     Am 
   But this is how it goes, baby. 
Am          C             G                 Am 
   I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home 
Am     C              G       Am Am            C               G 
   And you won't call after me    'cos I'll be back before you know, you know...

VERSE 2: 
Am             G                  F 
  So give me a tooth full of that smile, 
                Am 
and know-it-all eyes you show me  
        G                            F 
just to prove that you don't need to lose it. 
Am                   G             F 
You tell me I'm your fortress of desire 
            Am                     G 
but is it a crime for me to say my own view 
                     F 
and want then not to fear you? 
 
PRE-CHORUS: 
 Dm                             E           F             G 
    And so I'll run but not too far, incase you chase me, oh... 
 
CHORUS: 
{over chorus, lead guitar plays this note: D|-10-| with a certain rhythm, listen to track) 
Am     C              G     Am 
   But this is how it goes, baby. 
Am          C             G                 Am 
   I'll get angry at your words and I'll go home 
Am     C              G       Am Am            C               G                Am 
   And you won't call after me    'cos I'll be back before you know, you know...

   yeah I'll be back before you know...
