VERSE 1:
C6
Please excuse me, but I got to ask
D6
Are you only being nice because you want something?
C6
My fairytale arrow-pierces
D6
Be careful how you respond, 'cause you'd not end up in this song
C6
I never gave you an encouragement
D6
And it's doing me in, doing me in, doing me in, doing me in, doing me in
CHORUS:
| C6 | D6 |
Em(add4) Gmaj7/B
The more you try to erase me
C6 D6
The more, the more
Em(add4) Gmaj7/B
The more that I appear
C6 D6
The more, the more
Em(add4) Gmaj7/B
The more you try the eraser
C6 D6
The more, the more
Em(add4) Gmaj7/B
The more that you appear
| Ab(add2)/C | Ab(add2)/C |
VERSE 2:
C6
You know the answer so why do you ask?
D6
I am only being nice because I want someone, something
C6
You're like a kitten with a ball of yarn
D6
And it's doing me in, doing me in, doing me in, doing me in, doing me in
CHORUS:
The more you try to erase me
The more, the more
The more that I appear
Oh the more, the more
The more I try to erase you
The more, the more
The more that you appear
No, you're wrong, you're wrong
