The Writer Ellie Goulding
This is in a lower key than the original for those not of the female persuasion. I
actually play it with the capo on 2.
[C]You wait for a si[Fsus2]lence
I [C]wait for a word[G]
Lying next[Gsus4] to your frame[Fsus2]
[C]Girl unobserved[G]
You chan[Gsus4]ge your position[Fsus2]
You're chang[C]ing me[G]
[Gsus4]Casting these shado[Dm7]ws
Where they sh[G]ouldn't be[C]
[C]We're int[Fsus2]errupted
By the heat [C]of the sun[G]
[Gsus4]Trying to prevent[Fsus2]
What's already b[C]egun[G]
[Gsus4]You're just a bod[Fsus2]y
I can sme[C]ll your skin[G]
[Gsus4]And when I feel [Dm7]it
You're weari[G]ng thin[C]
***
But I've [Dm]got[Am] a [Fsus2]plan
Why don't you be th[G]e artist[Am]
And make[Fsus2] me out of clay?[C]
Why don't you be the[G] writer[Am]
Decid[Fsus2]e the words I say?[C]
Caus[Cmaj9]e I'd ra[Am7]ther pretend[Dm7]
I'll still be ther[G]e at the end[Am]
O[Cmaj9]nly it's too ha[C]rd to ask[Dm7]
Won't you try to hel[Gsus2]p me?[G]
***
Sat on your sofa
It's all broken springs
This isn't the place for
Those violin strings
I try out a smile
And I aim it at you
You must have missed it
You always do

[Fsus2]You wait I wait
