[Intro]
G C Am D x6

[Verse 1]
G C Am D
Oh, once upon a midnight dearie
G C Am D
I woke with something in my head
G C Am D
You see I couldn't escape the memory
G C Am D
Of the phone call and of what you said
G C Am D
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
G C Am D
I could not believe my eyes
G C Am D
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
G C Am D
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies,
G C Am D
yeah humor me and tell me lies

[Verse 2]
G C Am D
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind
G C Am D
And as we seek so shall we find
G C Am D
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
G C Am D
But not without a certain degree of fear
G C Am D
Of what will be with you and me
G C Am D
I still can see things hopefully

[Chorus]
G C Am
But you
D G C Am D
Why you wanna give me a run-around?
G C Am D
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
