Bitter chords

Intro: [E] [F#m] [E/G#] [F#]

[VERSE 1]

[E]Lately Iʼve been sleeping alone on[F#m] my own again
[E/G#]Just me in an empty room on a single [F#]bed
[E]Iʼve been trying all this time[F#m] just to see
[E/G#]All the reasons you had given just to l[F#]eave

[CHORUS]

[E]Why am I so bitter about you babe
[F#m]I donʼt understand
[E/G#]Was I trying to cash in the fantasy without the [F#]reality check
[E]But I never wanted you to lie to yourself about [F#m]happiness
[E/G#]When all you [A]were was [E/G#]just a little [B]lonely

[VERSE 2]
Latching on to love like a moth to flame
But what are we gonna do when the embers start to fade
I donʼt mean to mess with the master plan
But when you put out the fire Iʼll just start it again
I guess Iʼll have to keep my distance for your defense

[VERSE 3]
Pull me out of focus keep me in the queue
Iʼm a tired lover wilting hours in the waiting room
Embrace the silence when thereʼs nothing left
You got no room for demons when youʼre self-possessed

[CHORUS]
[E]Why am I so bitter about you babe
[F#m]I donʼt understand
[E/G#]Was I trying to cash in the fantasy without the [F#]reality check
[E]But I never wanted you to lie to yourself about [F#m]happiness
[E/G#] [A] [G]/[Em] [F#7]
When all you were was just a little lonely
And all you wa[F]nted was the com[B]pany

[BRIDGE]
Whyʼd you let me go
When you still wanna know
How much I care If Iʼd still be there
Whyʼd you set me free
If you need the sympathy
Come as you are
My tongue is undone

Was I spoilt for love
Have you had enough
Wait out the danger
You donʼt have to ask
This maudlin moment
Will soon come to pass
