[D] [Em]
Spent a week in a dusty [Em]libr[D]ary
Waiting for some words t[D]o j[Em]ump at me
We met by a trick of fate[Em][D]
French navy my sailor mate[G]
We met by the [D]moon at the silvery lake
You came my [G]way, I said, "I want you[D] to stay"
[Em]You with your dietary restrictions Said [D]you loved me with a lot of conviction
[Em]I was waiting to be struck by lightning Waiting[D] for somebody exciting like . . .
[G]. . . you Oh the thing[D] that you do
You make me go woo[G] With the things that you d[D]o you do you do
I wanted to con[Em]trol it But love I co[G]uldn't hold it
I wanted to con[Em]trol it But love I [G]couldn[A]'t hold it
[Em]I'll be criticized for lending out my art
[D]I was criticized for letting you break my heart
[Em]Why wouldn't I stand for disappointed looks?
[D]I'm fully grown but I'm on tenter[G]hooks, ooh with the l[D]ooks
On tenter[G]hooks, ooh, with the [D]looks the looks the looks
I wanted to con[Em]trol it
But love I couldn't [G]hold it
I wanted to con[Em]trol it
But love I couldn't [G]hold i[A]t
Em - D (repeat)
[Em]Relationships were something I used to [Em]do[D]
Convince me they are better for me and [D]you[Em]
We met by a trick of fate[Em][D]
French navy my sailor mate
(chorus)
I wanted to con[Em]trol it
But love I couldn't [G]hold it
I wanted to con[Em]trol it
But love I couldn't [G]hold it
I wanted to con[Em]trol it
But love I couldn't [G]hold it
I wanted to con[Em]trol it
But love I couldn't [G]hold i[A]t
