Intro: 
A - Bm7      2x   

     A                  Bm7 -                                
So      who was first  
A                 Bm7                                      
   Obviously not       me 
A                        Bm7                                
   She's locked up in -        side herself 
       A                      Bm7                           
And I     can't get anything       free 
    A                  Bm7                                  
So     won't somebody        tell me please 
         E                     Bm7                  A          
Why the     former owner al -       ways keeps the     keys 

            Bm7                                          
There's no       bubbles to burst 
    A                            Bm7                         
No     bursting out crying nor       dying of thirst 
       A                   Bm7                              
She's     utterly tied to       somebody else 
        A                      Bm7                          
And it     seems he got there      first 

     A                    Bm7                               
And     no, I'm not un -      tying 
     A                                   Bm7                 
The     reins around her neck that she       feels 
             A                               Bm7            
And I won't     try to prise out of her the       truth anymore 
          A                              Bm7               
When she     lies about the things that      she sees 
             E                     Bm7                 Bm6       
Because the     former owner al -       ways keeps the      keys 

Break: 
Bm6  
E7  

         A       Dmaj7                                         
There's     no        calling 
      A                             Dmaj7                     
Come     here, you're necessary to         me 
                 A                                   Dmaj7   
There's no ex -     citement in her face when I im -        plore 
       A                             Dmaj7                    
Cor -     rupt me and confess to me        some more 

            A                                         
And when  we     hear trees falling 
        Bm7                                              
Or see       people disappearing 
         A                                    Bm7           
Her e -     motions won't be reached or re -       leased 
             E                                         
Because the     former owner is  
Bm7                E                                        
     (keeping the     keys) 
                                          Bm7            
                       keeping the keys  

        A                                              
Like a     ticket inspector  
Bm7                                                     
      running for a bus 
A                           Bm7                             
     Irony's revenge sur -       rounds us 
              A                                        
And it's i -     ronic that he promised you  
      Bm7                                                
he'd       never let you go 
           A                             Bm7                
When he's    left you used-up and dis -       turbed 

            A                          Bm7                  
And I said     Just as the early bird      catches the worm 
     A                         Bm7                          
The     early cat catches the       bird 
          E                   Bm7               A        Bm7 -       
But that     former owner is       keeping his     word  
E -  
Bm7                A                                        
     keeping his     word
