I Know A Game chords and lyrics - FERRON

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]I watch you reading a book
[C]I get [G]to thinking our love's a polished
stone
You give me a long drawn look
I know pretty [Em]soon you're going to
leave our home
And of course I mind
Especially when I'm
thinking [C]from my heart
But life don't clickety- clack down
a straight line track
It comes together and it comes apart
You say you hope I'm not
the kind
[D]To make you feel obliged
To go [G]ticking through
your time
With a pained look in your eyes
You give [Em]me the furniture, we'll
divide the photographs
Go out to dinner one more [C]time
Have ourselves a bottle of wine
And a couple of laughs

[Verse 2]
And when first [C]you left
I stayed so sad I wouldn't sleep
I know that [D]love's a gift, I thought
yours was mine
And something that I could keep
Now I realize that time is not the
[G]only compromise
[C]But a bird in the hand [G]could be an all
night stand
Between a blazing fire and
a pocket of skies
So I hope I'm not the kind
To make you [Em]feel obliged
To go ticking through your time
With a pained look in your eyes
I covered the furniture, I framed
the [C]photographs
Went out to dinner one more time
Had myself a bottle of wine
and a couple of laugh[D]s

[Verse 3]
And just the other [D]day
I got your letter in the mail
I'm happy [G]for you, its been so long
You've been wanting a cabin and
a backwoods trail
And I think that's great
I seem to find [Em]my self in school
It's all okay,
I just want to say
I'm so relieved we [C]didn't do it cruel
But ain't life a brook
Just when I get to feeling
like a polished stone
I give [D]me along drawn look
It's kind of a drag to find yourself [G]alone

[Verse 4]
And sometimes I mind
Especially when I'm waiting
on your heart
But life don't click[D]ety- clack down
a [Em]straight line track
It comes together and it comes apart
'Cause I know you're not the kind
To make me feel obliged
To go ticking through my time
[C]with a pained look
In my eyes
I sold the furniture,
I put away the photograph[Em]s
[G]Went [D]out to dinner one mor[G]e time
Skipped the bottle of wine
Had a couple of laughs
And wasn't it fine
