Intro: E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
verse 1
E minorEm
You said that you would call me
G+G
And when you didn?t call me
A augmentedA
I gave you up for dead
E minorEm
So I was working on a backbone
G+G
And chiseling a tombstone
A augmentedA
When you called me up and said
E minorEm
Through a wall of heavy breathing
G+G
You thought it was relieving
A augmentedA
To be out on your own
E minorEm
How a voice that used to thrill me
G+G
Could cut me up and kill me
A augmentedA
On the fucking telephone
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
You did not even send me airborne anyway
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
Why in the world I hung around it?s hard to say
verse 2
E minorEm
It was just another Thursday
G+G
Like any other Thursday
A augmentedA
Except that we were through
E minorEm
We were wading through the concrete
G+G
And digging through the scrap heap
A augmentedA
Deciding what belonged to who
E minorEm
All the treasure from the good days
G+G
Was going through the last phase
A augmentedA
Of yours and yours and mine
E minorEm
When something from the yours pile
G+G
Shattered on the floor tile
A augmentedA
And you went off like Frankenstein
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
You did not even send me airborne anyway
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
Why in the world I hung around it?s hard to say
verse 3
E minorEm
I think it?s clear that I adore you
G+G
I didn?t mean to bore you
A augmentedA
Or grind it in so deep
E minorEm
I had to place another call in
G+G
I didn?t think you?d fall in
A augmentedA
With the company you keep
E minorEm
And you tell me that you love me
G+G
But you don?t really love me
A augmentedA
You remind me every day
E minorEm
When you?re living in a flood plain
G+G
It doesn?t take a hard rain
A augmentedA
To wash it all away
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
You did not even send me airborne anyway
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
Why in the world I hung around it?s hard to say
