Small Talk

    C
And halfway home, you caught me at the station
   F
Struck me up with quiet conversation
Am                     G              F
It'd been months since you had set me free
 C
Filled me in on your newfound meditation
    F
The quiet life helped your dedication
      Am                  G                   F
The dreams that you loved more than you loved me


[Pre-Chorus]
    Am       Gm         F
And I do not want to be cold to you
Am          Gm         F
You left me no choice again


[Chorus]
     C                G        F
But, girl, you better act your age
                C             G          F
Or you're gonna find yourself alone some day
         C            G        F
Standing still in the same old place
            C       G     F
Looking the same as yesterday
C              G       F
Let me let you in on a secret
        C       G              F
You got lies, I wish you would keep them
            C           G      F
Beside your cage with a broken lock
                G        F
I'm sick of this small talk
                G        F
I'm sick of this small talk


[Verse 2]
    C                                  F
You cannot lie, not what I expected to see

You shake at every simple question
       Am                  G                F
I know you more than you could ever hope I would
           C
So take me up the stairs, saw you from a distance
       F
With a cigarette, swore that you would quit
               Am             G                 F
And what's this? A cloud that hangs over our heads


[Pre-Chorus]
    Am       Gm         F
And I do not want to be cold to you
Am          Gm         F
You left me no choice again


[Chorus]
     C                G        F
But, girl, you better act your age
                C             G          F
Or you're gonna find yourself alone some day
         C            G        F
Standing still in the same old place
            C       G     F
Looking the same as yesterday
C              G       F
Let me let you in on a secret
        C       G              F
You got lies, I wish you would keep them
            C           G      F
Beside your cage with a broken lock
                G        F
I'm sick of this small talk
                G        F
I'm sick of this small talk
                G        F
I'm sick of this small talk
          G         F
Sick of this small talk
