D Em
Em D
Spent a week in a dusty library
D Em
Waiting for some words to jump at me
Em D
We met by a trick of fate
G
French navy my sailor mate
D
We met by the moon at the silvery lake
G
You came my way
D
I said, "I want you to stay"
Em
You with your dietary restrictions
D
Said you loved me with a lot of conviction
Em
I was waiting to be struck by lightning
D G
Waiting for somebody exciting like you
D
Oh the thing that you do
G
You make me go woo
D
With the things that you do you do you do
Em
I wanted to control it
G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em
I wanted to control it
G A
But love I couldn'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 G D
I'm fully grown but I'm on tenterhooks with the looks
G D
On tenterhooks, ooh, with the looks the looks the looks
Em
I wanted to control it
G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em
I wanted to control it
G A
But love I couldn't hold it
Em - D (repeat)
Em Em D
Relationships were something I used to do
D Em
Convince me they are better for me and you
Em D
We met by a trick of fate
French navy my sailor mate
[chorus]
Em
I wanted to control it
G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em
I wanted to control it
G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em
I wanted to control it
G
But love I couldn't hold it
Em
I wanted to control it
G A
But love I couldn't hold it
Em D (repeat and fade)
