G#m F#m
Go away from the window, Babe
G#m F#m
Take a look at what’s inside
C E
And take a look into my eyes
B A E
Far away, but by my side
B A G#m
I’m finding ways to move away
G#m F#m
This is the closest that we’ll ever get
G#m F#m
And we’re not close at all
C E
And still you seem to know with hope
B A E
Far away, but by my side
B A E
I keep you on, a distance from me
Am D Bm
Push another open shade, another kind, and try to keep another man, and see
Am
how well you do

G#m C#m A
I’m not competing against her ass
C E
I only know that this feels good
G#m F#m B
We don’t have to be so clever, Babe
B A E
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo
B A E
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo
B A
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
G#m F#m
Can’t get it out of my head
G#m F#m
A tone in a voice
C E
Annoy a lover’s bathroom noise
B A E
I’m leaving this behind
B A E
Still, I need to be fine by someone
Am D Bm
Seal another envelope, don’t send it, keep it in a desk, and hope it won’t
Am
be needed to be ripped
G#m C#m A
I’m not competing with her ass
C E
I only know that this feels good
G#m F#m B
I don’t have to be so clever, Babe
B A E
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo
B A E
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo
B A E
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo Doo
B A E
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
