[Verse 1]
(Play as intro with the hammer-ons)
FWe might Ckiss Fwhen we are aClone
Fnobody's Cwatching
We might Gtake it homeC  
FWe might Cmake out Fwhen nobody's Cthere
FIt's not that we're Cscared
It's just that it's Gdelicate
[Chorus]
(Strum the chords, * = play with hammer-ons)
So why do you Ffill my sorrow
With the Cwords you've borrowed
F   C*
From the only place you've known
And why do you Fsing Hallelujah
If it Cmeans nothing to you
Why do you Fsing with me at Gall?
[Verse 2]
FWe might Clive Flike never Cbefore
FWhen there's nothing to Cgive
Well how can we Gask for more
FWe might Cmake love Fin some sacred Cplace
FThe look on your Cface is Gdelicate
[Chorus]
(Strum the chords, * = play with hammer-ons)
So why do you Ffill my sorrow
With the Cwords you've borrowed
F   C*
From the only place you've known
And why do you Fsing Hallelujah
If it Cmeans nothing to you
Why do you Fsing with me at Gall?
So why do you Ffill my sorrow
With the Cwords you've borrowed
F   C*
From the only place you've known
And why do you Fsing Hallelujah
If it Cmeans nothing to you
Why do you Fsing with me at Gall?
[Outro]
Just strum down using your thumb
