Foolish Games/You Were Meant For Me by Jewel

VERSE I
Dm            Bb                        F   
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
                C 
You were always crazy like that
Dm                Bb 
I watched from my window,
                  F                C     
always felt I was outside looking in on you
          Dm 
You were always the mysterious one 
     Bb
with dark eyes and careless hair, 
          F                             C
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care 
         Dm          Bb                       F
Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say 
             C
besides some comment on the weather


BRIDGE-

         Gm
Well in case you failed to notice, 
    Bb
In case you failed to see, 
F   
This is my heart bleeding before you, 
C
This is me down on my knees


CHORUS-
Bb             C        F   C      Bb 
These foolish games are tearing me apart
Bb                 C         F     C      Bb 
You're thoughtless words are breaking my heart
                Dm 
You're breaking my heart


VERSE II
                Dm               Bb
You were always brilliant in the morning
             F           C
Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee 
          Dm                       Bb
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, 
                            F 
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
      C
As I clumsily strummed my guitar 
Dm
You'd teach me of honest things 
Bb
Things that were daring, things that were clean 
F                                 C
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean 
      Dm                           Bb
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back 
F                                    C
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you


BRIDGE-
Gm                                     Bb
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else 
F
Somebody who gave a damn, 
C
Somebody more like myself

REPEAT CHORUS.

D – Bb – F – C

D             Bb                        F
You took your coat off and stood in the rain, 
                            C
you were always crazy like that…



INTRO

Cadd9             G6
I hear the clock, it's six a.m.
C                  Em
I feel so far from where I've been
Cadd9                    G6
I got my eggs.  I got my pancakes too
C                     D
I got my maple syrup, everything but you
Cadd9                     G6
I break the yolks, make a smiley face
C                     Em
I kinda like it in my brand new place
         Cadd9                                   G6
Wipe the spots off of the mirror don't leave the keys in the door
C                            D
I never put my towels on the floor anymore 'cause

CHORUS-
C           D
Dreams last so long
G    D/F          Em
Even after you're gone
C           D
I know that you love me
G        D/F      Em
And soon you will see
C
You were meant for me
    D               Em   Em 
And I was meant for you

Cadd9                      G6
I called my momma, she was out for a walk
C                            Em
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk so I
Cadd9                     G6
Picked up a paper, it was more bad news
C                           D
More hearts being broken or people being used
Cadd9                 G6
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
C                     Em
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
       Cadd9           G6
'Cause it was happy oh I was sad and
C                   D
It made me miss you oh so bad

CHORUS

BRIDGE
C                         D
Go about my business, I'm doing fine
         G               D/F            Em
Besides, what I say if I had you on the line
C                   D
Same old story, not much to say
Em
Hearts are broken every day

Cadd9 G6 C Em (2x)

Cadd9                        G6
I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
C                         Em
I know you hate it when I leave the light on
  Cadd9            G6
I pick a book up.  Turn the sheets down.
C                        D
Take a deep breath and a good look around
Cadd9           G6
Put on pj's and hop into bed
    C                     Em
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
Cadd9                       G6
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
C                         D
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight

CHORUS

C
You were meant for me
    D

Cadd9   G6   C   Em
You ...............
