G       D        G     D
Swallow me say swallow me
                              Am   Asus4
Take me to your nest of china dolls
D
Call me up your closest friend
Bm                      F#m       F#m7
Join me in my neighbourhood patrol.

G     D       G    D
Happy me say happy me
                                    Am  Asus4
Chinese whispers bounce from ear to ear,
    D
The night is young I feel so old
Bm                        F#m           F#m7
See the stars above the night's so clear.

[Chorus]
E                G       D                  G   D
 I used to come home late and lie, lie, lie
                A            E                  A   E
She used to see through that but still I tried
                 G  D                   G   D
I couldn't cover up the tracks I'd made
                   A     E
That's how it used to be but not today.

[Verse]
G       D        G     D
Race around I race around
                                 Am   Asus4
Focused on the here and now with you
D
Every smile's a valentine
Bm                      F#m       F#m7
What harm can a little loving do

[Verse]
G       D        G     D
Fall about then fall about
                                  Am   Asus4
Drunk on love I can't stand on my feet
D
Before I try please take my hand
Bm                      F#m       F#m7
I've so many words left I should eat

[Chorus]
E                G       D                  G   D
 I used to come home late and lie, lie, lie
                A            E                  A   E
She used to see through that but still I tried
                 G  D                   G   D
I couldn't cover up the tracks I'd made
                   A     E
That's how it used to be but not today.

[Verse]
G       D        G     D
Tickle me please tickle me
                              Am   Asus4
Laughter climbs the walls above our bed
D
This night we have is build on love
Bm                      F#m       F#m7
Help me so I do not lose the thread

[Chorus]
E                G       D                  G   D
 I used to come home late and lie, lie, lie
                A            E                  A   E
She used to see through that but still I tried
                 G  D                   G   D
I couldn't cover up the tracks I'd made
                   A     E
That's how it used to be but not today.

G       D         G       D        Am7
Swallow me say    swallow me
G       D         G       D        Am7
Happy   me say    happy   me
G       D         G       D        Am7
Race   around I   race   around
G       D         G       D        Am7
Fall   about then fall   about
G       D         G       D        Am7
Tickle  me say    tickle  me
G       D         G       D        Am7
Love me do sing   love me do.
