[Intro]
C C/G
[Verse 1]
C C/G C C/G
Untie me, I've said no vows
C C/G C C/G
The train is getting way too loud
F
I gotta leave here my girl
C C/G C C/G
Get on with my lonely life
G
Just leave the ring on the rail
C C/G C C/G
For the wheels to nullify
C C/G C C/G
Until this turn in my head
C C/G C C/G
I let you stay and you paid no rent
F C C/G C C/G
I spent twelve long months on the lam
G
That's enough sitting on the fence
C C/G C C/G
For the fear of breaking dams
[Chorus]
Am C
I find a fatal flaw
F
In the logic of love
C G
And go out of my head
Am C
You love a sinking stone
F
That'll never elope
C G
So get used to the lonesome
C G
Girl, you must atone some
C G F
Don't leave me no phone number there
[Solo]
C C/G (x4)

C C/G (x2)
G
C C/G (x2)
C C/G C C/G
It took me all of a year
C C/G C C/G
To put the poison pill to your ear
F C C/G C C/G
But now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground
G
You want to fight for this love
F
But honey you cannot wrestle a dove
C C/G C C/G
So baby it's clear
[Verse 2]
(same as before)
Am C F C G*
You want to jump and dance
But you sat on your hands
And lost your only chance
Go back to your hometown
Get your feet on the ground
And stop floating around
[Chorus]
Am C
I find a fatal flaw
F
In the logic of love
C G
And go out of my head
Am C
You love a sinking stone
F
That'll never elope
C G
So get used to the lonesome
C G
Girl, you must atone some
C G F
Don't leave me no phone number there
C
