Ed Sheeran – Don’t
Key: F Minor BPM: ♩ = 95 Time: 4/4
|Fm   Cm   |Db  Eb  |Fm   Cm   |Db  Eb  |

 |Fm            Cm                        |Db                   Eb       |
I met this girl late last year, she said, "Don't you worry if I disappear?
            |Fm                           Cm           |
I told her, "I'm not really looking for another mistake”
           |Db                           Eb                |
I called an old friend thinking that the trouble would wait
          |Fm                     Cm             |
But then I jumped right in a week later, returned
        |Db                         Eb           |
I reckon she was only looking for a lover to burn
     |Fm                   Cm                 |
But I gave her my time for two or three nights
      |Db                        Eb              |
Then I put it on pause until the moment was right

       |Fm      Cm      |Db                     Eb  |
I went away for months until our paths crossed again
             |Fm                        Cm    |
She told me, "I was never looking for a friend
               |Db                      Eb                  |Fm                    Cm   |
Maybe you could swing by my room around ten, baby, bring the lemon and a bottle of gin
                       |Db                    Eb  |
We'll be in between the sheets 'til the late AM"
                   |Fm                       Cm                 |Db      Eb          |
Baby, if you wanted me then should have just said, she's singing,  don’t fuck with my

|Fm         Cm         |Db        Eb     |
 love, that heart is so cold, all over my
|Fm                  Cm             |Db      Eb          |
 home, I don't wanna know that, babe,  don’t fuck with my
|Fm      Cm          |Db          Eb     |
 love, I told her she knows, take aim and
 |Fm                  Cm             |Db  Eb  |
reload, I don't wanna know that, babe

                |Fm                 Cm                        |Db                   Eb   |
And for a couple weeks I only wanna see her, we drink away the days with a takeaway pizza
              |Fm                          Cm     |
Before, a text message was the only way to reach her
                 |Db                              Eb       |
Now she's staying at my place and loves the way I treat her
            |Fm                  Cm                  |
Singing out Aretha, all over the track like a feature
   |Db                                 Eb                    |
And never wants to sleep, I guess that I don't want to either
|Fm                          Cm               |Db               Eb                  |
   But me and her, we make money the same way, four cities, two planes, the same day
|Fm                           Cm                  |
   And those shows have never been what it's about
      |Db                            Eb           |
But maybe we'll go together and just figure it out

          |Fm                         Cm            |
I'd rather put on a film with you and sit on a couch
             |Db                         Eb            |
But we should get on a plane or we'll be missing it now
             |Fm                            Cm               |
Wish I'd have written it down, the way that things played out
            |Db                        Eb         |
When she was kissing him, how I was confused about
              |Fm                       Cm              |Db      Eb          |
Now she should figure it out, while I'm sat here singing,  don’t fuck with my

|Fm         Cm         |Db        Eb     |
 love, that heart is so cold, all over my
|Fm                  Cm             |Db      Eb          |
 home, I don't wanna know that, babe,  don’t fuck with my
|Fm      Cm          |Db          Eb     |
 love, I told her she knows, take aim and
 |Fm                  Cm             |Db  Eb  |
reload, I don't wanna know that, babe

|Fm      Cm         |Db                       Eb            |
   On my hotel door, I don't even know if she knows what for
       |Fm                     Cm               |
She was crying on my shoulder, I already told ya
|Db                           Eb         |
 Trust and respect is what we do this for
|Fm                     Cm           |Db                         Eb            |
 I never intended to be next, but you didn't need to take him to bed, that's all
|Fm                       Cm               |Db                           Eb            |
 And I never saw him as a threat, until you disappeared with him to have sex, of course

|Fm                      Cm          |
   It's not like we were both on tour
       |Db                          Eb         |
We were staying on the same fucking hotel floor
     |Fm                           Cm           |
And I wasn't looking for a promise or commitment
          |Db                    Eb                        |
But it was never just fun, and I thought you were different
|Fm                         Cm                   |
 This is not the way you realized what you wanted
      |Db                Eb                |
It's a bit too much, too late if I'm honest
   |Fm                 Cm               |Db      Eb          |
And all this time, God knows I'm singing,  don’t fuck with my

|Fm         Cm         |Db        Eb     |
 love, that heart is so cold, all over my
|Fm                  Cm             |Db      Eb          |
 home, I don't wanna know that, babe,  don’t fuck with my
|Fm      Cm          |Db          Eb     |
 love, I told her she knows, take aim and
 |Fm                  Cm             |Db      Eb          |
reload, I don't wanna know that, babe,  don’t fuck with my

|Fm         Cm         |Db        Eb     |
 love, that heart is so cold, all over my
