[E] [A] She says that she knows [B] that moments [F#] are rare and [F#m] I suppose [A]

[A]
[E] She'd like to think I was [A] cruel [E] but [A] you know [E] that's a lie for I [A] would be [E] no more than a [A] tool.
[E]
If I allowed her to cry all over [A] me.
[E] [F#m] Oh my sorrow is real [E] even though I can't change my [A] plans.

[A] [E]
When all that [F#] you offer me are your [E] chains then I've got to refuse.
[A] [E]
[A] What [F#m] does she [A] want me to do?
[E] [A] She says that she knows [B] that moments [F#] are rare and I [A] suppose [E] that that's true.
