The pull of the C/Etide
Hidden forces that are strDmonger than the Am/Cwind
Still they caGnnot G/Bbe deCnied

But if that's true then why is Dmmy heart always Am/Cdrawn to you
Even thGough you're G/Bfar aCway
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh I've kDmnown it all along
You were nBbever mCine to lFose
You tell me Dmnot to waste my prAm/Cecious time
On anoGther thG/Bought of yCou

I'm not allowed to mFiss you
I'm not allowed to C/Eshed a single tear 
I'm not allowed to tDmell you
That I want you and I wCish that Dmyou were C/Ehere
I'm not allowed to nFeed you
When I can't sleep and no one C/Eelse can get me through
