To a date over dinner yesterday

She said "well anyway..."

We bit our lips she looked out the window rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
Bm D/F# G
I played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shak - er
Bm D/F# G Bm
And I could see clearly an indelible line was drawn
Bm D/F# G
Between what was good, what just slipped out and what went wrong
G F#sus/A# F#/A#
Oh, the way she feels about me has changed

Verse 3:
D D/C# D/F#
One more thing why is it my fault?
G Bm
So maybe I try too hard
D/F# G
But it's all because of this desire
