------------------------
INTRO: Cm/A G Cm/A G
I'm impossible [Cm/Eb]she's exciting
[G/D]Bound together with [D]joined up writing
[Cm]In the Church I [G/D]heard a bell ring
[Cm/Eb]In a bar I [Em]heard a girl sing
[G]She sings solo [Cm/Eb]I see double
[G/D]Moments vanish her [A/C#]love so subtle
[Cm]I went home it's [G/B]not surprising
[Gm/Bb]Words were few and [A]realising
CHORUS:
[Am7]I was deep in my [G]points of view
[Am7]So interested to [G]talk to you
[Am7]talk to you [G]talk to you
[Am7]talk to you [G]talk to you
(Do chords from first verse)
She' s romantic and I'm selected
Glances swapped and thoughts collected
By her song it's not her singing
Words were few the bell was ringing
On the table my cards are shuffled
Words take time to get so muddled
I'm off home I'm shy but eager
Tomorrow comes I hope to see her
(Do chords from Chorus)
On the stage with her velvet voice
Though some would say that it's just a noise
just a noise just a noise
just a noise just a noise
BRIDGE:
[Eb] [Dm] [C#] [Cm] [Bm] [Bb] [A]
[Am7]I bit off more than [G]I could chew
[Am7]So interested in my [G]points of view
(Do chords from first verse)
Trial and Jury swear on the Bible
I'm too drunk and unreliable
I'm too drunk for conversation
Though I wait for invitation
She's exiting I'm uninvited
Fifteen rounds this love I've fighted
I'll walk home and curse the heavens
Lost on points my heart was flattened
[Am7]Maybe she had other [G]things to do
[Am7]And didn't want any [G]points of view
Am7 G (repeat to fade)
