Riding To Vanity Fair

Am6 Am  Am6 Am (x4)

Am
I bit my tongue, I never talked too 
much

I tried to be so strong
Am
I did my best, I used the gentle 
touch

I've done it for so long

Am
You put me down, but I can laugh it 
off

And act like nothing's wrong
Am
But why pretend? I think I've heard 
enough

Of your familiar song

Em9
I tell you what I'm going to do
Cmaj7
I'll try to take my mind off you
Em9
And now that you don't need my help
Cmaj7
I'll use the time to think about 
myself

Am
You're not aware of what you put me 
through

But now the feeling's gone
Am
But I don't mind, do what you have 
to do

You don't fool anyone

Em9
I'll tell you what I'm going to do
Cmaj7
I'll take a different point of view
Em9
And now that you don't need my help
Cmaj7
I'll use the time to think about 
myself

Fmaj7
The definition of friendship

Apparently ought to be showing 
support
        Gmaj7
For the one that you love
Fmaj7
And I was open to friendship

But you didn't seem to have any to 
spare

Am
There was a time when every day was 
young

The sun would always shine
Am
We sang along when all the songs 
were sung

Believing every line

Fmaj7
That's the trouble with friendship

For someone to feel it it has to be 
real
      Gmaj7
Or it wouldn't be right
Fmaj7
And I keep hoping for friendship

But I wouldn't dare to presume it 
was there
