I'm not sure if this is how Alex plays this song, but I think it makes a good acoustic version
Capo 1
[Intro]
C E Am E F G C
[Verse 1]
C E
I'm not the kind of fool
Am E F
who's gonna sit and sing to you,
G
about stars, girl.
C E
But last night I looked up into
Am E F
the dark half of the blue,
G
and they'd gone backwards.
[Pre Chorus]
C E
Something in your magnetism
Am E
must have pissed them off,
F G C G
forcing them to get an early night.
C E
I have been searching from
Am E
the bottom to the top
F
for such a sight
G (strum once)
as the one I caught when I saw your
[Chorus]
C G Am Fmaj7
Fingers dimming in the lights
C G Am Fmaj7
like your used to being told that you're trouble
C G Am Fmaj7
and I spent all night
C G Am Fmaj7
stuck on the puzzle
[Verse 2]
C E
Nobody I asked
Am E F
knew how he came to be the one to whom
G
you surrendered
C E Am
Any man who wasn't led away
E F

[Pre Chorus]
C E
That something in your magnetism
Am E
hadn't just made him drop
F G C G
whoever's hand it was that he was holding.

and I thought I'd seen the light
F G
but oh no.
