C

Verse 1:
     F
Well Mama might have said you were one of a kind but she don't leave home and she ain't done time
C
Looking at the birds like I do, they all spread their wings just like you
    F
The red carpet comes out when you arrive, the crowd goes wild and you roll your eyes
C
Life's hard being a lush, you never know when you're taking too much

C                         G                                  C
You laugh it off when you lose control, no one's born with a trashbag soul
    F                                                 C
But girl you make you wonder how long I've been under you?

You with your party dress you can't keep clean, you with your scepter and your Singapore sling
F                                                           G
Retreat to happy mountains to run them up and down with the blues

G             C         F
And you won't catch fiiire for me
              C             F
And you don't like my shitty poetry
    C                   E                Am                  C
You swear that love's a myth, a sailor's tale, it's make believe
            F    C
But Lily Riptii-iide

Verse 2:
    F
Now Mama might have said you're the beauty's dream with your ivy league talk you're unfair to me
          C
Then your mountains, your keys and your clothes and the way that you look down your nose
F
But who's gonna give you the time of day when you're broke in the gutter, don't know your name
     C
'Cuz good love wears off, it's true, and it might just wear off on you

You laugh it off when you get called out, your real life is slapped into the ground
F                                                 C
Now who's got to wonder, what's that flying under you?
                           G                                        C
It ain't the carpet or the concrete, girl, but once you thought it was the whole world
F                        C
Once I was a boy passing through
