Verse 1
[Dm]You took your coat off and stood in the [Bb]rain
[F]You were always crazy like [C]that
[Dm]And I watched from my window,
[Bb]Always felt I was outside [F]looking in on [C]you
[Dm]You were always the mysterious one
[Bb]With dark eyes and careless hair
[F]You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to [C]care
[Dm]Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to [Bb]say
[F]Besides some comment on the [C]weather
Pre-Chorus
[Gm]Well, in case you failed to notice
[Bb]In case you failed to see
[F]This is my heart bleeding before [C]you
[Gm]This is me down on my [Bb]knees
Chorus
[Bb]These foolish [C]games are [F]tearing me [C/E]apart [Dm]
[Bb]And your thoughtless [C]words are [F]breaking my [C/E]heart [Bb]

Verse 2
[Dm]You were always brilliant in the morning
[Bb]Smoking your cigarettes, and talking over [F]coffee [C]
[Dm]Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you,
[Bb]You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved [F]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]Things that knew what an honest dollar did [C]mean
[Dm]So I hid my soiled hands behind my back
[Bb]Somewhere along the line I must've gone off [F]track with [C]you
Pre-Chorus
[Gm]Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody [Bb]else
[F]Somebody who gave a damn,
[C]Somebody more like myself
Chorus
[Bb]These foolish [C]games are [F]tearing me, you're tearing me, you're [C/E]tearing me [Dm]apart
[Bb]And your thoughtless [C]words are [F]breaking my [C/E]heart [Bb]
[Dm]You're breaking my heart
