This is Stockholm Syndrome, by Yo La Tengo, from their fantastic "I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One" record. The verses and choruses mostly go like this except the 2nd chorus kinda walks down to the Am in the 3rd verse. Not 100% sure of the words as they're a little hard to hear amongst all the falsetto.
[Verse 1] AmBmEm What's the matter? Why don't you answer? AmBmEm What's the matter with me? Is it so hard to be AmBmCG free and easy, to disappear completely? CGD Hardly as alone as glad(?)
AmBmEm Your heart is broken and the doors are open AmBmEm as you're hoping to be as bright a place as you see AmBmCG Hands need warming early in the morning CGD hardly as alone as surprised
[Chorus] D7 No, don't warn me GEm I know it's wrong GEmD But I swear it won't take long D7 And I know you know GEm It makes me sigh GEmD I do believe in love
D7 No, don't warn me GEm I know it's wrong GEmD But I swear it won't take long D7 And I know you know GEm It makes me sigh GEmD I do believe in love
[Solo ?hords]
AmBmEm AmBmEm AmBmCG CGD
[Chorus] D7 No, don't warn me GEm I know it's wrong GEmD I swear it won't take long D7 And I know you know GEm It makes me sigh GEmDC I do believe I do believe
D7 No, don't warn me GEm I know it's wrong GEmD I swear it won't take long D7 And I know you know GEm It makes me sigh GEmDC I do believe I do believe
[Verse 2] AmBmEm Another season of the same old feelings AmBmEm Another reason to be AmBmCG I'm tired of achin', the summer's what you make it CGD And I believe what I want to believe
