Verse 1 
C               F    C              F 
You have worn a path right up to my heart 
    C            F                   G7 
you come in for awhile but you don't stay 
         C           F             C            F 
and I've come to realize that your promises are lies 
   C                     F            G7 
to buy you time when you want to get away 
 
C                 F                  C     F 
You must think my heart has swingin' doors 
    C                 F               G7 
the way that you keep comin' back and forth 
      C                 F                C    F 
I can feel it's gettin' close to closin' time 
               C                G7       F 
and I won't be leavin' my heart open any more

Well, I've heard you're back in town I suppose you'll come around 
     C                   F                   G7 
when nights are cold and friends are hard to find 
    C              F                 C             F 
you always seem to wait 'til all the pieces are in place 
         C                  F          G7 
then you walk back in and rearrange my life
