To take a breath that day

When you held me and touched my face

Said you wanted to sleep by my side

So I pray

You're just a busy bee

And can't get to the phone right now

Cause your playing your game

And I hate the sound that it makes

It's never any other way

His game

He was a pro

He knew all the rules

F#m E

Had me wrap tightly around his dirty finger

What I don't understand is that I'll fall for a man

F#m E

Who really ain't a man at all

If you know what I'm talking about then

D A

I'm not even gonna complain

It's not fair

[Chorus]
