Lucy Kaplansky - The Thief


CAPO: 5th Fret


C F
We were sitting in a café
Am G
You were listening like you had nothing better to do
C F
You were feigning interest badly
Am G
I guess interest is too hard for you


C F
I stopped talking and just watched you
Am G
Watched the way your mouth made faces at me
C Em
Watched the way your eyes looked through me
F G
Looking for something new you could take from me


CHORUS:
C Em7 F
And I know what you are
C G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C Em7
I know what you are
F G
And everything in the world does not belong to you


INTERLUDE: C Am F G C Am F G

C F
All the things you ever gave me
Am G
Were just scraps you didn't want anyway
C F
All the people you discarded
Am G
Well I guess you never thought you might want them back some day


C F
I've been loyal, I've been honest
Am G
Tell you the truth, I don't know what for
C Em
I've knelt down with all the others
F G
Well, I'm not on my knees anymore


CHORUS:
C Em7 F
And I know what you are
C G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C Em7
I know what you are
F G C
And everything in the world does not belong to you
F G
Not you, not you


INTERLUDE: C Am F G


BRIDGE:
Bb F C
Last night in the dark, in my mirror

I thought I saw you
F
I threw the mirror on the floor
Dm Em F G
It kept breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking


CHORUS:
C Em7 F
And I know what you are
C G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C Em7
I know what you are
F G
And everything in the world does not belong to you


CHORUS:
C Em7 F
I know what you are
C G
You're the thief who steals from your friends
C Em7
I know what you are
F G
And everything in the world does not belong to you
C Em7
Not me, not him, not her
F G C
Not every single thing in the world
Em7
Not me, not him, not her
F G C
Not every single thing in the world


OUTRO:

(I know what you are)
Em7
Not me, not him, not her
F G C
Not everything in the world
