Nemeses by Jonathan Coulton
Nemeses
Capo:no capo
E
It's an amazing smile
C#m B
Even the suit has teeth
E
Everything flash and guile
A
And nothi ng underneath
B G#m A
Except a small black heart that no one sees but me
F#m C Am B C
I've been watching, I can see you start to wonder
E B G#m C#m
Could it be that you need me
F#m G#m A B
To keep you out, to run you faster
E B G#m C#m
Promise me you'll let me be
F#m B7 F#
The one, the worst of all your enemies
B7 F#m
Pretending you're a friend to me
B7 E C#m B
Say that we'll be nemeses
E
Being a brilliant man
C#m B
Going to great expense
E
Devising a master plan
A
Doesn't make much sense
B G#m A
Unless you find the one you're destined to destroy
F#m C Am B C
Now that you're here I don't seem that crazy do I?
E B G#m C#m
Could it be that you need me
F#m G#m A B
To keep you out, to run you faster
E B G#m C#m
Promise me you'll let me be
F#m B7 F#
The one, the worst of all your enemies
B7 F#m
Pretending you're a friend to me
B7 E A F#7
Say that we'll be nemeses
F#7
Ah yes, my old friend
A B
You are a master of this game
F#7
The hidden blade when you pretend
A B
That you don't even know my name
E
Well played
E E C#m B
E
Sometimes it's hard to tell
C#m B
If you even notice me
E
Maybe it's just as well
A
It's better you don't see
B G#m A
The way I'm running just to keep your back in view
F#m C Am B C
In your shadow waiting for the perfect moment
E B G#m C#m
Could it be that you need me
F#m G#m A B
To keep you out, to run you faster
E B G#m C#m
Promise me you'll let me be
F#m B7 F#
The one, the worst of all your enemies
B7 F#m
Pretending you're a friend to me
B7 E C#m B
Say that we'll be nemeses
