Tempted - Squeeze (Difford/Tilbrook)

intro:  B       B/A      E/G#      E      [2x]

verse 1            B              D#m           G#m
        I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
        C#/F                       Em
        Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
           Bm                               F#m               G/A   A
        I said to my reflection, "let's get out of this place"
          D         E                            G
        Passed the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
         B                            A/E            C#/F
        Billboards and the buildings  Memories of it still keep
        Bm/F#         E          Bm/F#         G/F           E    E/D
        Calling and calling     But forget it all     I know I will

chorus: B               B/A       E/G#      E
        Tempted by the fruit of another
        B                B/A        E/G#     E
        Tempted but the truth is discovered
                     C#                    F#
        What's been going on  Now that you have gone
                     B     B/A
        There's no other
        E/G#             E         B     B/A
        Tempted by the fruit of another
        E/G#              E          C#m       Em
        Tempted but the truth is discovered
verse 2            B              D#m           G#m
        I'm at the carpark, the airport, the baggage carousel
        C#/F                                          Em
        The people keep on grabbing, ain't wishing I was well
                  Bm                               F#m         G/A   A
        I said, "It's no occasion, it's no story I can tell"
        D                         E                      G
        At my bedside, empty pocket, a foot without a sock
         B                          A/E            C#/F
        Your body gets much closer   I fumble for the clock
        Bm/F#         E            Bm/F#         G/F           E    E/D
        Alarmed by the seduction    I wish that it would stop

Chorus: B               B/A       E/G#      E
        Tempted by the fruit of another
        B                B/A        E/G#     E
        Tempted but the truth is discovered
                     C#
        What's been going on
                 F#                      B     B/A
        Now that you have gone    There's no other
        E/G#             E         B     B/A
        Tempted by the fruit of another
        E/G#              E          C#m       Em
        Tempted but the truth is discovered

Verse 3             B              D#m           G#m
        I bought a novel, some perfume, a fortune over you
        C#/F                                          Em
        But it's not my conscience that hates to be untrue
           Bm                              F#m                  G/A A D
        I asked of my reflection, "tell me what is there to do"

        There's no other
