Rejected Love

C                                     Am
I was sitting by myself alone and you know

That in my room I don't have a phone
            F                             G
There was a knock on my door, but I'm not sure
C
It was her, the girl who treasures me
          Am
She said: I love you, do you love me?
   F                            G
I can't recall if I answered at all
        C
She sat down on my bed: treacherous ground
    Am
Her face turned red and didn't make a sound
    F                                   G
She looked at me like a dog that wanted food
C
I thought to myself "I don't have a bone"
     Am
"But neither of us should have to feel so alone"
      F                           G
I was careful not to say anything rude

[Chorus]
  Am
I didn't know if to kiss her
      Em
Or if I preferred to miss her
         F                                      G
"This is just like some movie from before", she said
    Am
And she was on a love's train
    Em
But I was in an aeroplane
    F                              G
All we could do was to wave to one another

[Verse]
C
Silence is a voice of an equal choice
      Am
Girls sometimes wish that they were boys
    F                                        G
And men they blush when the blood rushes too late
C
Echo is the voice of bouncing back
  Am
A gecko is a lizard and a rat is a rat
  F                                G
A no is a no is a no, I don't like that
C
Wanting is a need which wants to defeat
Am
Rejecting which is greed of another need
    F                                 G
She looked at me with original sinful eyes
C
And though the love of spring was in the air
Am
My heart for her refused to care
F                                      G
A lock was there and she couldn't lock it up

[Chorus]
    Am
And though for some that night was blessed
    Em
The knife of love cut through her chest
    F                                        G
For her it was another failure stored in her soul
    Am
And love is blind and sometimes a fool
   Em
It can be oh, so kind, and just as cruel
    F                                G
All I could do was to try to play my role

[Outro]
        C             Am
Save my soul, save my soul
        F             G
Save my soul, save my soul
                  C
You gotta save my soul
                    Am
Come on and save my soul
        F             G
Save my soul, save my soul
                C
I gotta save my soul
