Alex Turner - Stuck On The Puzzle

[verse]
    E               G#
I'm not the kind of fool who's
       A             F#m
gonna sit and sing to you, about stars girl
    E                 G#
But last night I look up into
       A            F#m
the dark half of the blue,

and they've gone backwards.

[pre-chorus]
A                 B
Something in your magnetism
E                        G#
must have pissed them off
A               B            E      G#
Forcing them to get an early night
A           B
I have been searching from
    E             G#              A
the bottom to the top for such a sight
      Am
As the one I caught when I saw your

[chorus]
E       B           F#m
Fingers dimming the lights
            E
Like you're used to being
B                F#m
told that you're trouble
      E     B   F#m
And I spent all night,
         E           B    F#m
stuck on the puzzle

[verse]
E        G#                 A
Nobody I asked knew how he came to be
    F#m
the one to whom you surrendered.
E           G#           A
Any man who wasn't led away into
    F#m
the other room stood pretending

[pre-chorus]
A                      B
That something in your magnetism
E                     G#
hadn't just made him drop
A                 B
Whoever's hand it was
            E         G#
that he was holding
A           B
I have been searching
         E             G#              A
from the bottom to the top for such a sight
       Am
As the one I caught when I saw your

[chorus]
E       B           F#m
Fingers dimming the lights
            E
Like you're used to
      B                F#m
being told that you're trouble
      E     B   F#m
And I spent all night,
         E            B       F#m
stuck on the puzzle
  E        B           F#m
I tried to swim to the side
       E        B            F#m
But my feet got caught in the middle
      E           G#       A     F#m
And I thought Id seen the light
          B A
But oh no,
G#m            F#m          E         B    F#m
   I was just stuck on the puzzle
               E        B    F#m
