Oldest Trick In The Book

[Intro] C  G  Em  A
        C  G  Em  A

[First Part]

C                G
I cannot follow us like a persistent
 worm
Em                             A7
That's not a thing that I can do
C                     G
You are a lake of love, a raging 
genius
Em                               A7
And you don't want the things I do

[Chorus]

Am                                
The first time we met up, asked 
        Em
you in for coffee
Continues after the ad
                     C             
You said, "That's the oldest trick 
           G
in the book"
                           Am      
And when I think about you often, I
           Em
 picture you smoking
               C                   
When I used the oldest trick in the
   G
 book

[Second Part]

C7M                G
Cute if not pitiful, so unoriginal
Em                       A7
 And yet, it's how it all begins
C                      G
If I'm a lake, then you, you're a 
deep diver
       Em                         
And who can say if that's enough to 
A7
win?

[Chorus]

Am                                
The first time we met up, asked 
        Em
you in for coffee
                     C             
You said, "That's the oldest trick 
           G
in the book"
                           Am      
And when I think about you often, I
           Em
 picture you smoking
               C                   
When I used the oldest trick in the
   G
 book

[Outro] C  G  Em  A

                           Am      
And when I think about you often, I
           Em
 picture you smoking
               C                   
When I used the oldest trick in the
   G
 book
