At your Gsisters' wedding I gave all that I had,
Your Emfather was cold and your mother was sad.
I tAmhought to myself they were like Cyou and I,
When we Glast met.
My Glove is a nail I can't pull out with plyers,
The lEmovers I've had have been gaslighting liars.
DonAm't know what that says aboCut me,
But I just give Gin.
I mean it now it's making me ill.
[Chorus]

[Intro]

G Em Am C G

[Verse]

Baby I'm sorry to call you so late,

Oh I forget I can't call you that name.

Am C

Still make those slips all of the time,

Don't know when I'll get better.

I think to the night that you handed me back,

Records we shared and the life that we had.

Am C

You said in that condescending tone,

I'll never forget you.

[Chorus]

D C

She's in your jeans,

But I don't care.

D C

You were my dream.

Now my nightmare.

[Verse]

At your sisters' wedding I gave all that I had,

Your father was cold and your mother was sad.

Am C

I thought to myself they were like you and I,

When we last met.

My love is a nail I can't pull out with plyers,

The lovers I've had have been gaslighting liars.

Am C

Don't know what that says about me,

But I just give in.

I mean it now it's making me ill.

[Chorus]

D C

She's in your jeans,

But I don't care.

D C

You were my dream.

Now my nightmare.

[Bridge]

Am C G

So call me when, you break up.

As you always do,

C G

I can't promise I will pick up,

n.c.

I'm done with you.

[Chorus]

D C

She's in your jeans,

But I don't care.

D C

You were my dream.

Now my nightmare.
