I took my dog to the vet today
he gave her a shot and put her away
And when I got home and got ready for bed
I'd realized what I'd done

I left the man I'm in love with behind
I moved to Chicago and told him I'd write but now
when I wake and I see the wrong face
I realize what I've done

Did you think that I knew what I was doing
When I said that I had to grow up on my own for a while?

e|--------|
B|-6------|
G|-6--5---|
D|-6--6---|
A|-4--6---|
E|-4--4---|

Now I'm dogless and loveless and cold in a Midwestern winter
If I'd known what I was doing I sure as fuck wouldn't be here
Now I like to think that I like to learn from mistakes
But I've made that error in judgment one too many times
And I'm not the wiser and sure not the wealthier
I wish to God that I had've been healthier

And that's one
less thing
that takes up my time

G|-5--7--10--12--|
D|-6--8--11--13--|
A|-6--8--11--13--|
E|-4--6--9---11--|

Well, I'm lining up six or seven good jobs
My hair's looking great and my friends are all snobs
But I don't have my man and I don't have my dog
And I don't have very much fun
