Checkmate Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - Melissa Willis

[F]Tug on my [G]heartstrings where you're [C]standing,
[G]Up above a [C]plane is [D]landing,
[Am]And you can [F]tell me what is [C]wrong,
[Em]But I won't [C]listen when you're [G]gone.

[CHORUS]
[D]And we're [G]standing at a [C]checkmate,
[G]Can't de[F]cide which way is [Am]up,
[D]Don't even [G]know which way we're [C]headed,
[Em]So you should [Am]pick another girl [F]up.

Interlude: [C] [G] [Am] [F] [C] [G] [F]* {* = strum once}

V2: {Same Chords as Verse 1}

Hold onto me as you whisper in my ear,

Whisper things you think I didn't know,

You think I didn't know you were unfaithful,

Well you got it so wrong.

[CHORUS]

[INTERLUDE]

V3:
[C] [G] [Am] [F] [C] [G] [F] {Repeat x3}
Don't hold on to what you think we have cause it's not real.

Don't hold on to what you think we have cause it's not real.

Don't hold on to what you think we have cause it's not real.

Chorus 2: {Same chords as Chorus}

So we're standing at a checkmate,

And I've decided which way is up,

And I know which way I'm headed,

You should know I've closed the door.

[CHORUS]

[D] [G] [C]*
And we're standing at a checkmate.
