Its a human sign
2) misunderstanding
G Em
when things go wrong
2) after the fact
A D
when the scent of her lingers
2) sensitivity builds a prison
G Em A
and temptations
strong 2)
in the final act
D
into the boundary
2) we lose direction
G A
of each married man
2) no stone unturned
Bm
sweet deciept comes a calling
2) no tears to damn you
G A
and negativity lands
2) when jealousy burns
Bm
cold, cold heart
G A
hard done by you
Bm
some things look better, baby
G A
just passing through
D
and its no sacrifice
G
just a simple word
A G
when two hearts living

in to seperate worlds
D
and its no sacrifice
