Note: r1. seems to be an overdubbed part played
over a G7 chord so if you find this to be too
difficult or whatever just play a G7.
Intro:
Verse 1:
Although she's none the wiser
Although we've barely met
I could recognize her
From the treatment that I get
So it's my duty to advise her
If she breaks the rules
I've said I'll quit though I'll admit
That hasn't happened yet
Chorus 1:
(N.C.)
I believe she's lying
I trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
Given time
Verse 2:
As sure as she is sitting here
She's sure that she's awake
And soon as were committing
Were admitting our mistake
So of course it's only fitting
That the course we're going to take
Is drawn and whereupon
I'm slamming on the breaks
Chorus 2:
(N.C.)
I believe she's lying
I trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
Given time
It's a given
A7 r1.(or n.c.)
Given time
Bridge:
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Verse 3:
The power of suggestion
The element of chance
And the subject now in question
Is the same old song and dance
And the time that we invest in
Setting traps out in advance
So we can spend the weekend
Staring in a trance
Chorus 3:
(N.C.)
I believe she's lying
I trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
Given time
It's a given
Given time
It's a given
A7 r1.(or n.c.)
Given time
Outro:
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)
Dm7 A7 Cm7 r1.(or G7)

Great song. I recommend playing it with bar chords as
opposed to open chords. I'm pretty sure that's how Jon played
it on the album but I'm not totally sure.
