(Dave Pirner)
Intro
DmDm C majorC FF G+G x 2
Verse
DmDm
I was tapping my foot
C majorC
On a Friday night
Bb majorBb
To my favorite band
FF
I was pushed aside
DmDm
I said "Hey, don't push me
C majorC
No one pushes me"
Bb majorBb
When I was face to face
FF
With the woman I admired
Bb majorBb FF
And she gave me this look
C majorC
I could not believe
Bb majorBb FF
And the cold stare remained
C majorC
I wanted to leave
Verse
See, I do believe anger
Is offset by sorrow
What you destroy today
You might regret tomorrow
When you're young and defensive
It comes off offensive
And its hard to repay
The tolerance that you've borrowed
The lasting relationship
Sinks right off the pier
Who wears the pants
It's faded but clear
Chorus
FF
She's your girlfriend
C majorC
Seems she ain't too fond of me
Bb majorBb
I guess that that's the way
FF
It was meant to be
C majorC
There we were just we 3
Bb majorBb FF C majorC
You, your girlfriend, and me
Intro
Verse
I've known you forever
You two just met
So easily amused
How fast we forget
And my jealousy
My self-righteous greed
She's a bit like a book
I'm too farsighted to read
And I wish you the best
I sometimes feel the need
To say "Remember me"
Chorus
Yeah, she's your girlfriend
As far as we can see
Does she look at you
The way she looks at me
And here we are, just we 3
You, your girlfriend, and me
She's your girlfriend
It's getting harder to see
Better just take her home
Better just let it be
When she walks out that door
You'll come looking for me
Fadeout
