In Spite Of Me chords by Morphine

In Spite of Me by Morphine on Cure for Pain, 1993

**Note**
Simple, plaintive, and timeless.
A protagonist reminiscing on his lost love, made even more sad by the agony he's going through.
The original track features a picked mandolin carrying the melody but these chords are a good approximation.

Intro:
D     G

Verse 1:
     D                            G
Last night I told a stranger all about you
     D                          G
They smiled patiently with disbelief
  D                                G
I always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried

Chorus:
      C               Em              D       G
And I know you did it all in spite of me

D     G

Verse 2:
          D                              G
Still I'm proud to have know you for the short time that I did
D                                    G
Proud to have been a step up on your way
D                          G
Proud to be part of your illustrious career

Chorus:
      C               Em              D      G
And I know you did it all in spite of me

In spite of me

D     G

Bridge:
C                               G
Late last night I saw you in my living room
    C                          G
You seemed so close but yet so cold
      C                                 G
For a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me
      D                          G
Those kind of thoughts can be so cruel
   D         G
So cruel

D     G

Chorus:
      C               Em              D     G
And I know you did it all in spite of me
            D     G
In spite of me
