G C G C Pity, take pity on me Am Am/B C G Because I'm not the man that I should be G C G C I'm always turning to run Am Am/B C G From the people I should not be afraid of G C G C And darling, you should know Am Am/B C G That I have fanta-sies about being alone G C It's like love is a lesson G C That I can't learn Am Am/B C G So I make the same mistakes at each familiar turn Chorus: Em C I know you can't hold out forever Em C Waiting on a diamond and a tether Em C From a boy who won't swim B7 Em Who won't dip his toe in A7 C G Just to keep you here with him I've got this habit I abhor When we go out, I'm always watching the door As if there's someone I'm going to see Who could out-do the things that you do to me I know you can't hold out forever Waiting on a diamond and a tether From a boy who won't fly Who won't take to the skies If he thinks you're about to say goodbye Pity, take pity on me Because I'm not half the man that I should be And I don't blame you, you've had enough With all these empty promises and countless bluffs Chorus with a different bit at the end: Em C I know you can't hold out forever Em C Waiting on a diamond and a tether Em C From a boy who won't jump B7 Em When he's falls in love A7 C Em He just stands with his toes on the edge A7 C G And he waits for it to disappear again
