"Never Mind" by Nanci Griffith
Album: Little Love Affairs (1988)
[VERSE:]
You Dsay you're headed Dsus2out to CaliAfornia
You've Gheard the grapes are Afallin' from the Dvines
I was hopin' you might Dsus2have the urge to Awrite me
But I Gdon't believe you Awill, so never Dmind
I was Dtalkin' to a Dsus2man down at ConAesco
And he Gthought they might be Ahiring any Dtime
I'm so tired of going Dsus2any way the Awind blows
And I Gthought that me and Ayou, but never Dmind
[CHORUS:]
Never Dsus2mind, never mind
I'm just Atalkin' through the Dwine
And you Gknow that drinkin' always makes me Asad
But Gbefore this night is Athrough
I'd Dbetter say I Glove you
Or I'm Ggonna always Awish that I Dhad
[VERSE:]
First Dsaw you pickin' Dsus2oranges in OrAlando
And all Gday you kept your Aladder close to Dmine
We froze in Georgia Dsus2burned up in ChiAcago
And I Galways thought that Awe, but never Dmind
And did you know today my Dsus2baby called you ADaddy
SomeGtimes I've wished that Ashe was yours and Dmine
I could call my brother Dsus2Milt in CincinAnati
And Gask him for a Aloan, but never Dmind
[CHORUS:]
Never Dsus2mind, never mind
I'm just Atalkin' through the Dwine
And you Gknow that drinkin' always makes me Asad
But Gbefore this night is Athrough
I'd Dbetter say I Glove you
Or I'm Ggonna always Awish that I Dhad
