[Intro]
| E |

[Verse 1]
                       E
Tale as old as honey
                         C#m
A moment everybody knows
                                         B
Yeah, I'm sure there was heartbreak
                               B
Inside the walls of Jericho
                   E
I couldn't believe it
                                       C#m
How you could just stop wanting me
                                      B
You burnt down Easter Island
                       F#m                            E/G#
As if it wasn't sacred, as if it wasn't sacred to me

[Chorus]
A
I've seen it in the poems, in the sands
B
I've pleaded with the powers and their plans
E                                       B
I tried to re-write it but I can't
                                 E/G#
It's the history, the history of man
A
She stays up, he's sleeping like a lamb
B
She begs him, h? says he doesn't understand
E
Sh? loves him more than anyone ever has
B                                             F#m
In the history, the history of man
                             E
It's the history of man (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
                           E
You didn't even falter
                           C#m
Didn't look back once, did you?
                                 B
So Samson blamed Delilah
                                B
But given half the chance I, I would have made him weaker too

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m                         A
Sirens sound and trumpets blaring
F#m
You walked out, oh
B
Without sweating

[Chorus]
A
I've seen it in the poems, in the sands
B
I've pleaded with the powers and their plans
E                                      B
I tried to re-write it but I can't
                               E/G#
It's the history, the history of man (History)
A
She stays up, he's sleeping like a lamb
B
She begs him, h? says he doesn't understand
E
Sh? loves him more than anyone ever has
B
In the history, the history of man (History)

[Bridge]
       F#m
He stole our youth and promised heaven
         A
The men start wars yet Troy hates Helen
F#m
Women's hearts are lethal weapons
A
Did you hold mine and feel threatened?
F#m
Hear my lyrics, taste my venom
B
You are still my great obsession

[Chorus]
A
I've seen it in the poems, in the sands
B
I've pleaded with the powers and their plans
E                                       B
I tried to re-write it but I can't
             E/G#
It's the history, the history of man (History)
A
I stay up, you're sleeping like a lamb
B
I beg you and you don't understand
E
I hold on, I try to hold your hand
B
I save you a seat and then you say you wanna stand
C#m
So you'll lose me, the best you'll ever have
B
It's the history, the history of man
