[F] Stood over the love in the [D] marquee, [F] for the blouse I'd all [D] adored.
[A] And he was not looking for romance, [G] just someone [F] [G] he could [D] trust.
[G] [F] And there was no way [Dm] to carry on, [F] there was no way to [Dm] laugh.
But he [A] could put up with it for a little while, he [G] was working on something [D] bad.
