Transcription taken from official sheet music.
INTRO: D E D E
A C#m
Don't stray, don't ever go away
D
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
A C#m
Sometimes, when you and I collide
D E
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
F#m C#m
Don't let me drown, let me down
D E
I say it's all because of you
A C#m
And here I go, losing my control
D
I'm practising your name so I can say it to your face
A C#m
It doesn't seem right, to look you in the eye
D
Let all the things you mean to me
E
Come tumbling out my mouth
F#m C#m
Indeed it's time to tell you why
D E
I say it's infintely true
CHORUS:
A E F#m
Say you'll stay, don't come and go
C#m E
Like you do
A E F#m
Sway my way, yeah I need to know
C#m
All about you
Verse 2:
And there's no cure, and no way to be sure
Why everything's turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it all turns sour
Come sweeten every afternoon
CHORUS TWICE
E D
It's all because of you
E D
It's all because of you
F#m C#m D E
Now it all turns sour, come sweeten every afternoon
F#m C#m D E
It's time to tell you why, I say it's infinitely true
CHORUS TWICE
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
