 the chord is held for another measure; two chords with a slash between
 them are held for two beats/half a measure each.]



1.
                  D              -                   A  /  Bm        G
I don't want to change your mind - I don't want to think about your mind

                   E   A                       Bm   E
they say love is blind - I don't think you're blind

You don't want to understand and I don't want to shake your father's hand
and walk in the sand and act like a man



Chorus:
              G                     A                     Bm               E
I get on the bus and ride past our stop - and though I'm late I can't get off

              G                     A
I just can't bear to tell you some lies

|:               D  A :|
and narrow your eyes
narrow your eyes



2.
We'll take back everything we said - split up all the things and move ahead
forget how you said to split your side off the bed



Chorus:
I get on my bike and ride down our block
ride through the world thru the green lights
but when I think of all your advice
I narrow my eyes
narrow my eyes



Instrumental:
E - - -

Em A F#m B
Em A D -


(Repeat verse 1)



           Em                 A               F#m          B
Now let's toast the sad cold fact our love's never coming back

           Em                       A
and we'll race to the bottom of a glass

|:              D  A :|
So narrow your eyes


-E.M.
