Capo I
C F G F C
C
And I know what you said to me was wrong
F
But kindness came and bit my tongue
G
I must admit,
F C
the taste of it is keepin' me awake
C
You did your best to throw me off the scent
F
Betrayed yourself on accident
G F
I saw it when you lit
C
the filter of your cigarette
Dm
And the smoke, it filled your lungs
F
You left before the sun
C Dm
First we ever met
(Page 1/4)
Am F
You thought I was an asshole
C Dm
Probably correct
Am F
But I can see your shadow
C
And all the twenty something mannequins
F
Their hearts are barely broken in
G
But maybe now
F C
I'm just a coward envying the brave
C
And every time you tried to let me in
F
Your nails, they barely broke the skin
G
I must admit,
F C
the taste of it is keeping me awake
Dm
And we passed out on the rug
F
And you left before the sun
(Page 2/4)
C Dm
First we ever met
Am F
You thought I was an asshole
C Dm
Probably correct
Am F
But I can see your shadow
C Dm
Only for a night
Am F
Only for the weekend
C Dm
Pour another wine
Am F
Take me to your deep end
C Dm
First we ever met
(Silence, oh, the sinner lost his way)
Am F
You thought I was an asshole
C Dm
Probably correct
(Livin' for the love of yesterday)
(Page 3/4)
Am F
But I can see your shadow
('Cause all alone and all the days)
C Dm
Only for the night
(You're giving up, you hid away)
Am F
Only for the weekend
C Dm
Pour another wine
(Livin' for the love of yesterday)
Am F
Take me to your deep end
C Dm
First we ever met
Am F
You thought I was an asshole
C Dm
Probably correct
Am F
But I still feel your shadow
