Verse:
Gm                              Eb
You're just a stones throw from me
                                Bb
But throwing stones could never be
                      F
The perfect way to start

Verse:
Gm                                  Eb
Cos sticks and stones make broken bones
                         Bb
Empty words make broken homes
                             F
But its love that broke our hearts

Chorus:
Cm                          Bb     F
And if I knew what you were thinking
Cm                          Bb     F
I would stop this boat from sinking
Cm               Eb            Bb
But darling you are like the sand
              F                 Cm
And you're slipping through my hands
        Eb                         Bb
I just don't know what you're thinking

Verse:
Gm                        Eb
You're just a photo in a drawer
                              Bb
But photographs are not much more
                      F
Than ghosts we can't forget

Verse:
Gm                          Eb
You're just a red rag to a bull
                             Bb
You're just a false hope for a fool
                            F
But it's as close as I can get

Chorus:
Cm                          Bb     F
And if I knew what you were thinking
Cm                          Bb     F
I would stop this boat from sinking
Cm               Eb            Bb
But darling you are like the sun
         F              Cm
Setting when my evening comes
        Eb                     Bb
I just don't know what you're thinking

Bridge:
Cm                            Gm
And I will stop the sky from falling
Bb
If I knew
F
If I knew
Cm                        Gm
And I will love you every morning
      Bb
If I knew
     F
If I knew

Ohoh Oh

Chorus:
Cm                          Bb     F
And if I knew what you were thinking
Cm                          Bb     F
I would stop this boat from sinking
Cm               Eb             Bb
But darling you are like the stars
          F               Cm
I know I can't reach that far.
             Eb                    Bb
I just don't know what you're thinking

Outro: Bb
