[D#] [A#] [D] [A#]
[G] [F#]
[A#] Silly boy, don't you [G#] know that young [D#m] gal was [B] going to [C#] leave?
She would have not even stayed [F#] even if [A] you two [A#m] might have meant to be.
[D#m] [C#] Don't you bother calling that lady.
[G#] I'll show Charlie what you really need.
[C#] Sighting ain't all
[F#] about the chemistry, [C#] but [D#m] [G#] mathematics.
[Fm]
Mathematics.
[C#] Simply add one to [F#] one and it'll be two.
And so subtract [C#] one from two and you'll be left [F#] with you.
Now if a [D#] ship gets stuck [G#m] at North Pole,
[C#]
that doesn't mean it's about to join its [F#] sisters, the [C#] Titanics.
[F#] And so [A] swallow your pride [G#] once you feel [D#] some [B] guilt.
[C#] [F#] [C#] If you want to cry, go ahead, [F#] don't you panic.
[C#]
[D#m] [F#] For all we [D#m] know,
[G#] [Cm] tomorrow surely is [G#] another day.
[C#] [G] Come on now, won't you give yourself [F#] a break and start [C#] all over again?
Think [D#m] mathematics.
[G#] Think mathematics.
[C#] Just add one to one and it'll be [F#] two.
Then subtract one [C#] from two and you'll be left with you [D#m] now.
Left with you [B] now.
Only [Cm] you now.
[B] With a little bit of feelings.
[D#m] Subtract you now
[B] from the two now.
We'll be left with [Cm] you now.
With a little bit of [B] feelings.
You are [D#m] a number.
