Diamond And A Tether

G     C              G   C
Pity,   take pity on me
            Am      Am/B      
Because I'm not the man  that I 
C        G
should be
    G      C            G    C
I'm always   turning to run
         Am     Am/B        C    
From the people I    should not 
   G
be afraid of
    G        C            G     C
And darling,   you should know
            Am    Am/B   C       
That I have fanta-sies  about 
    G
being alone
                    G       C
It's like love is a lesson
             G       C
That I can't learn
              Am     Am/B      C 
So I make the same mistakes at 
            G
each familiar turn



Chorus:

                 Em          C
I know you can't hold out forever

             Em            C
Waiting on a diamond and a tether
       Em            C
From a boy who won't swim
          B7          Em
Who won't dip his toe in
        A7       C         G
Just to keep you here with him




I've got this habit I abhor
When we go out, I'm always watching 
the door
As if there's someone I'm going to 
see
Who could out-do the things that you
 do to me




I know you can't hold out forever
Waiting on a diamond and a tether
From a boy who won't fly
Who won't take to the skies
If he thinks you're about to say 
goodbye




Pity, take pity on me
Because I'm not half the man that I 
should be
And I don't blame you, you've had 
enough
With all these empty promises and 
countless bluffs


Chorus with a different bit at the 
end:

                 Em          C
I know you can't hold out forever
             Em            C
Waiting on a diamond and a tether
       Em            C
From a boy who won't jump
          B7       Em
When he's falls in love
        A7              C         
He just stands with his toes on 
  Em
the edge
       A7              C       
And he waits for it to disappear 
   G
again
