[Intro]
Dm Bb F F x2
[Verse]
Dm Bb F
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
Dm
You don't know how lovely you are
Bb F
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Dm
Tell you I set you apart
Bb F
Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions
Dm
Oh let's go back to the start
Bb F
Running in circles, coming up tails
Bb
Heads on a science apart
[Chorus]
Bb F
Nobody said it was easy
Bb
It's such a shame for us to part
Dm
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said that it would be this hard
F
Oh take me back to the start
[Interlude]
F Bb F F
[Verse]
Dm Bb F
Now I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Dm
I was pulling the puzzles apart
Bb F
But questions of science, science and progress
Dm
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Bb F
So come back and haunt me, tell me you love me,
Bb F
Oh and I rush to the start
Dm Bb F
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Dm Bb F
Coming back as we are
[Chorus]
Bb F
Nobody said it was easy
Bb
It's such a shame for us to part
F
Nobody said it was easy
Bb
No one ever said that it would be this hard
F
I'm going back to the start
[Interlude]
F Bb F F
Dm Bb F F
[Outro]

Ah Oooooooo
