Intro

B for 4 measures

Verse

 You can compliment me on the style of my hair

 Give me marks out of ten for the clothes that I wear

 You probably thought I had more upstairs

 I disappoint you, I can see through your perfect smile

 He likes to read books written for girls

 Prides himself on being a man of the world

 It’s in the darkest places he gets his thrills

 He will disappoint you, if you see through his perfect smile

Chorus

I think separation is ok

 You’re no star to guide me anyway

 You only wanted me to play

 The fool

 Play by your rule

Interlude

Verse

Now my door has swollen from the rain

 God knows we’ll never see her face again

People get shattered in many ways

 They can disappoint you if you see through their perfect smiles

Chorus

I think separation is ok

 'Cause you’re no star to guide me anyway

 You only wanted me to play

fool

 Play by your rule

fool

 Play by your rule

End on B.
