[Verse 1]
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
I am a man cut from the know
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
Rarely do friends come and then go
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
She was a girl, soft but estranged
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
We were the two, our lives rearranged

[Bridge]
C G Am
Feeling so good that day
C G F
A feeling of love that day…

[Chorus]
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4
Twisting and turning your feelings are burning
E7^
You’re breaking the girl
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4 F
She meant you no harm
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4
Think you’re so clever but now you must sever
E7^
You’re breaking the girl
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4 F
He loves no one else

[Verse 2]
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
Raised by my dad, girl of the day
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
He was my man, that was the way
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A6
She was the girl left alone
A A6sus2 Am7 A6sus4 Amaj7(9) A^
Feeling the need to make me her home

[Bridge]
C G Am
I don’t know what, when or why
C G F
The twilight of love had arrived

[Chorus]
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4
Twisting and turning your feelings are burning
E7^
You’re breaking the girl
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4 F
She meant you no harm
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4
Think you’re so clever but now you must sever
E7^
You’re breaking the girl
Am Bm6(11) C6 D6sus4 F
He loves no one else
