        F#m                            D
I could put it down to being tired or coming
                   E
home to an empty house
    F#m
a passing moment, a little mad,
 D
no-one around to stop me writing to you

   B                       D
I never wanna say it's love
          B                        D
but it's really what I'm thinking of

I could apologize and say tear it up
And put it down to the pills I've taken
Seeing my friends with their lives moved on
While I've been gently drifting

I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of

Chorus:
            F#m   C#m           D             Bm
I felt the same today as I was feeling yesterday
              F#m   C#m               D
It'll be the same tomorrow, from then on it
       Bm
won't change
   B                      D
I never wanna say it's love
          B                        D
but it's really what I'm thinking of

My home is home and I'm settled now
I've made it through the restless phase
I have no reason to get bored anymore
My friends are 'round and your name comes up

Asking if I ever heard from you
I'm keeping it quiet about those words to you
But I meant every word that I said
I stand by every word that I said

I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of

Chorus - x2

I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
I never wanna say it's love
But it's really what I'm thinking of
