[Intro]
| Bm | G | A | A | x2
 
[Verse 1]
Bm             G           A       A
Talk about life, imitating art,    Well I was sure that
   Bm                 G     A                         A
I heard the director yell   “take it from the start”.   And I could feel my body
Bm             G                      A     A
crushing yours,  camera dollied into place.
      Bm                        G                               A     A
Your husband's in the front row,    I couldn't look him in the face
 
[Pre-chorus]
G                  D A                G              B5 A5
Part of the pleasure     was that it felt so wrong
         G5  D5  A5   B5    G5
But it grew too fast, too strong
 
[Chorus]
D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
                   D/F#      G               A           Asus4 A
They're blaming it all on me, I'm blaming it all on love
     D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
               D/F#          G           A             A  A  A
Just a little sexual tension, under the guise of love
 
[Interlude]
| Bm | G | A | A | x2
 
[Verse 2]
Bm               G                   A      A
Young and tragic, I really felt the part.    While we were sweating and
  Bm        G                  A        A
Screaming,   tearin' out his heart.      Well I was sure I heard the
Bm                  G            A          A
wind and the wires,   crying in sympathy
     Bm                  G                  A          A
For star-crossed lovers,   Ally that ain't you or me
 
[Pre-chorus]
G                  D A               G              B5 A5
Part of the pleasure     was that it felt so wrong
         G5  D5  A5   B5    G5
But it grew too fast, too strong
 
[Chorus]
D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
                   D/F#      G               A           Asus4 A
They're blaming it all on me, I'm blaming it all on love
     D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
               D/F#          G           A             A  A  A
Just a little sexual tension, under the guise of love
 
[Bridge]
       G5      D5             A5       B5
For a limited run in to your local bedroom
     G5      D5              A5           B5
We knew the curtain would be coming down soon
    G5        D5              A5     B5
Reviews were mixed, the press was unkind
G5      D5        A5       B5        D5
Ally I hope they will forgive us in time
 
[Solo]
| D | G | A | A | x2
 
[Pre-chorus]
G                    D A               G                  B5 A5
Part of the attraction,   was that we knew it couldn't last
        G5   D5   A5  B5   C   G5
So we closed our eyes and held on
 
[Chorus]
D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
              D/F#         G             A          Asus4 A
Who were we trying to fool? What was I thinking of?
D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
                   D/F#      G               A           Asus4 A
They're blaming it all on me, I'm blaming it all on love
     D/F#                   G                 A       Bm
Well don't you think your friends are talking Alyson?
               D/F#          G            A             A  A  A
Just a little sexual tension,  under the guise of love
