Intro: B for 4 measures Verse: You can compliment me on the style of my hair Give me marks out of ten for the clothes that I wear You probably thought I had more upstairs I disappoint you, I can see through your perfect smile He likes to read books written for girls Prides himself on being a man of the world It’s in the darkest places he gets his thrills He will disappoint you, if you see through his perfect smile Chorus: I think separation is ok You’re no star to guide me anyway You only wanted me to play The fool Play by your rule Interlude: Verse: Now my door has swollen from the rain God knows we’ll never see her face again People get shattered in many ways They can disappoint you if you see through their perfect smiles Chorus: I think separation is ok 'Cause you’re no star to guide me anyway You only wanted me to play fool Play by your rule fool Play by your rule End on B.
