Adele – Love Is A Game (Live) Chords on Piano & Ukulele

[Verse 1]
 C       Cmaj7       C7
All your expectations of
    F             Dm7
my love are impossible
                G7
Surely you know,
 C               Cmaj7
That I'm not easy to hold
C7           F         Dm7
  It's so sad how incapable
                        G7
  of learning to grow I am
C        Cmaj7
My heart speaks in puzzles and codes
C7          F              Dm7
 I've been trying my whole life
 to solve
          G7
God only knows how I've cried
C       Cmaj7
I can't take another defeat
C7        F
  A next time would be
              Dm7
the ending of me
           G7
Now that I see, ee-ee, ee-ee

[Chorus]
      C                  Cmaj7
That love (Ooh-ooh) is a game
(Ooh-ooh)
     C7       F
for fools to play (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
             Dm7
And I ain't fooling (Fooling),
what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
    G7
To self-inflict that pain,
yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
  C                 Cmaj7
Love (Ooh-ooh) is a game (Ooh-ooh)
     C7       F
for fools to play (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
             Dm7
And I ain't fooling (Fooling),
what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
    G7
To self-inflict that pain

[Verse 2]
C         Cmaj7
 How unbelievable (Unbelievable)
C7           F
Of me to fall, for the lies
       Dm7
that I tell? (Lies I tell)
                  G7
The dream that I sell?
(Dream I sell)
          C                 Cmaj7
When my heart ache, it's inevitable
(It's inevitable)
        C7          F
But I'm no good at doing it well
           Dm7
Not that I care (I don't care)
            G7
Why should anything about
it be fair?

[Chorus]
      C                  Cmaj7
That love (Ooh-ooh) is a game
(Ooh-ooh)
     C7       F
for fools to play (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
             Dm7
And I ain't fooling (Fooling),
what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
    G7
To self-inflict that pain, yeah,
yeah-yeah, yeah
  C                 Cmaj7
Love (Ooh-ooh) is a game (Ooh-ooh)
     C7       F
for fools to play (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
             Dm7
And I ain't fooling (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
    G7
To self-inflict that pain
