DYou're a cold day in August
You're a Gstream too shBmallow
DYou're a heart shaped box with no lGetter insBmide

You're a Gfield run fBmallow
DYour heart's used up
You're Gfeeling cast asBmide
BmI'm sorry that I Aleft so sGoon
I left you sAtanding at the gBmallows
You were Aall strung Gout
The hBmangman waiting for the sign
Come see Ame at the grGeenhouse
DIn the back yard
Come sAee me at the Goak tree
With our nDames carved in the Abark
Come see me at the tGrain tracks
