[Verse 1]
[Em]Passage [G]is [D]marking [G]time
We [Am]make [Em]out, this is [G]the [D]way we [G]are
[Em]Looking [G]in [D]to [G]each other[Em]'s eyes
How can we [G]be [D]so [G]apart?
[Em]And I ha[G]ve a[D] sort it's
[G]feeling [Em]this [G]way[Em]
[G]Never [D]thought we'd be so [G]far off track
[Em]And I know[D] there's never one t[G]o blam[Em]e
[G]And we've gone too [D]far to turn [G]back
It was so [Am]easy at the start
[G]Keeping those [C]secrets from my heart
[D]Ohh [Em]Ahh [G]Ahh
It's a [D]checkmate
We [C]just don't know [G]it
And [Am]now it all seems so black and white
[G]And there's no [C]way to make it [D]right
[Em]Ohh [G]Ahh Ahh
It's a [D]checkmate
We [C]just don't know it [Em]now
[D][G][Em][G][D][G]
[Em]Look at [G]a strip [D]tea[G]l wall
[Em]Sinking [G]below [D]the gra[G]ss
[Em]How can [G]we l[D]et it [G]go so easy
[Em]Give it [G]our [D]very be[G]st
[Em]We t[G]hought that it w[D]ould
[G]be so dif[Em]ferent
[G]Always promised [D]to [G]avoid the black
[Em]And I kn[G]ow there's never[D] one t[G]o blame
And we've [Em]gone [G]too [D]far to turn [G]back
It was so [Am]easy at the start
Keeping [G]those [C]secrets from my heart
[D]Oh [Em]h Ahh A[G]hh
It's a [D]checkmate
We [C]just don't know it
[G]And [Am]now it all seems so black and white
And there's [G]no [C]way to make it right
Ohh [D]Ahh Ahh[Em][G]
It's a [D]checkmate
We [C]just don't know [G]it [Am]now
Getting tired [G]to [Em]fall
I think we're getting [G]closer[Am]
[G]We [Em]touch
But I start [D]sinking
[Am]We've been playing
games [G]too [Em]long
I think that this could [G]be the [Am]end
[C]Of our love
[D]It was [G]so [Am]easy at the start
Keeping [G]those [C]secrets from my heart
[D]Oh [Em]h Ahh A[G]hh
It's a checkmate
[D]And[C] now it all se[G]ems[Am]
so black and white
[G]And there's no [C]way to make it right
[D]Oh [Em]h Ahh A[G]hh
It's a [D]checkmate
[G]It was so [Am]easy at the start
Keeping [G]those [C]secrets from my heart
[D]Oh [Em]h Ahh A[G]hh

We [C]just don't know it
[G]An d now it [Am]all seems so black and white
And there's [C]no way to make it right
