[Verse 1]
Em7         A7                  Dmaj7           Gmaj7
I tried to leave here 'cause it don't feel the same
Em7    A7               Dmaj7     Gmaj7
I only want to think of yesterday
Em7            A7           Dmaj7     Gmaj7
I tried to forget it but it got in my way
Em7     A7           Dmaj7
I gotta focus on the better days
        D7
Oh, the better days

[Chorus]
     Gmaj7   Em7      F#m7      Bm7
But desi------ire is a funny thing
          Em7             A7
It is the strangest thing
               Dmaj7      Gmaj7
That clings to me all the time
  Em7       F#m7      Bm7
Desire is a hazy thing
  Em7
A downright crazy thing
               A  A7   Dmaj7
That leaves me wanting more

[Interlude-fingerstyle]
            F#m7        D
It's only a love song
            F#m7
It's only a love song

[Verse 2]
Em7            A7               Dmaj7      Gmaj7
Sometimes it's hard to wait for moments to last
Em7            A7        Dmaj7      Gmaj7
Sometimes it's easier to walk away
Em7           A7               Dmaj7       Gmaj7
Sometimes I forgеt to make the most of the past
Em7           A7               Dmaj7
Somеtimes you have to turn the other way
        D7
Or just any way

[Chorus]
     Gmaj7   Em7      F#m7      Bm7
Oh, desi------ire is a holy thing
          Em7             A7
It is the only thing
               Dmaj7         Gmaj7
That keeps the world on your side
  Em7       F#m7         Bm7
Desire is a fateful thing
  Em7     F#m7          Bm7
A damn ungrateful thing
               A  A7   Fmaj7
That makes me want for more

[Bridge]
            Cmaj7
And I was a lonely guy
  Fmaj7    Cmaj7
Decidedly unnoted
   Ebmaj7        Bbmaj7     Bm7
Oh I, I was some other guy
            Cmaj7
Waiting for you
    A7     Gmaj7
All over again

Em7 F#m7 Bm7
Em7 A7 Dmaj7 Gmaj7

[Ending]
  Em7       F#m7      Bm7
Desire is a hazy thing
  Em7
A downright crazy thing
               A  A7   D
That leaves me wanting more
            F#m7
It's only a love song
     Em7    Bbmaj7
It's only a love song
Gm7         Dmaj7   Bm7     C7  F#7
But it ain't half as good as you, oh
       Em7    A7           F#m7
'Cause only a love song is
          B7         Em
Is only a love song
            A7
It's only a love song
    D   C7 D C7 D
Not you
