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.
