You [Bm] should know by now, [A#] you've [F#m] been there [A] yourself.
[Bm] [E] Once I used to believe I [Am] was such a wonderful [E] man, sir.
Then [A] I came [C] home to a woman that [D] I could now [B] recognize.
[E] When I pressed [Em] her for a reason, she [A] refused [Am] to [E] even answer.

You [Am] give in to your [D] desire where [B] the stranger don't [Em] belong.
