Tom: C C And halfway home, you caught me at the station F Struck me up with quiet conversation Am G F It'd been months since you had set me free C Filled me in on your newfound meditation F The quiet life helped your dedication Am G F The dreams that you loved more than you loved me [Pre-Chorus] Am Gm F And I do not want to be cold to you Am Gm F You left me no choice again [Chorus] C G F But, girl, you better act your age C G F Or you're gonna find yourself alone some day C G F Standing still in the same old place C G F Looking the same as yesterday C G F Let me let you in on a secret C G F You got lies, I wish you would keep them C G F Beside your cage with a broken lock G F I'm sick of this small talk G F I'm sick of this small talk [Verse 2] C F You cannot lie, not what I expected to see You shake at every simple question Am G F I know you more than you could ever hope I would C So take me up the stairs, saw you from a distance F With a cigarette, swore that you would quit Am G F And what's this? A cloud that hangs over our heads [Pre-Chorus] Am Gm F And I do not want to be cold to you Am Gm F You left me no choice again [Chorus] C G F But, girl, you better act your age C G F Or you're gonna find yourself alone some day C G F Standing still in the same old place C G F Looking the same as yesterday C G F Let me let you in on a secret C G F You got lies, I wish you would keep them C G F Beside your cage with a broken lock G F I'm sick of this small talk G F I'm sick of this small talk G F I'm sick of this small talk G F Sick of this small talk
