[Verse 1]
Am7                          G                   Am7  G
I'm like the water when your ship rolled in that night
Am7                          G                  F
Rough on the surface but you cut through like a knife
Am7                G
  And if it was an open/shut case
Am7                G                           Am7
  I never would've known from the look on your face
             G                    F
Lost in your current like a priceless wine


[Chorus]
C                   G               Dm
  The more that you say, the less I know
             Am7         C
Wherever you stray, I follow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7
Wreck my plans, my old man


[Verse 2]
Am7                      G                  Am7  G
Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind
Am7                         G                F
Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneakin' in
Am7                G
  As if you were a mythical thing
Am7               G                    Am7
  Like you were a trophy or a champion ring
                  G              F
But there was one prize I'd cheat to win


[Chorus]
C                   G               Dm
  The more that you say, the less I know
             Am7         C
Wherever you stray, I follow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7           C
Wreck my plans, my old man
                 G                    Dm
You know that my train could take you home
         Am7        C
Anywhere else is hollow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7
Wreck my plans, my old man

Em Am7

Dm                       C                  Em  Am7
Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind
Dm                  C               Em  Am7
  They count me out time and time again
Dm                       C                  Em  Am7
Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind
Dm                C
  But I come back stronger than a 90's trend


[Verse 3]
Am7                          G              Am7 G
Wait for the signal and I'll meet you after dark
Am7                          G              F
Show me the places where the others gave you scars
Am7              G
  Now this is an open/shut case
Am7                   G                           Am7
  I guess I should've known from the look on your face
               G                   F
Every bait-and-switch was a work of art


[Chorus]
C                   G              Dm
  The more that you say the less I know
             Am7         C
Wherever you stray, I follow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7              C
Wreck my plans, my old man
                 G                    Dm
You know that my train could take you home
         Am7        C
Anywhere else is hollow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7             C
Wreck my plans, my old man

                  G              Dm
The more that you say the less I know
             Am7         C
Wherever you stray, I follow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7              C
Wreck my plans, my old man
                 G                    Dm
You know that my train could take you home
         Am7        C
Anywhere else is hollow
                G              Dm
I'm begging for you to take my hand
         Am7
Wreck my plans
