CYou're gonna sFay I tGold you sCo
CI never shFould have lGet you gCo
CAin't it fuFnny that heGre we arCe
The tFwo of us in twGo different bCars
CIn separate cFages daGncing sClow
CWe ain't got nFobody to cGall our oCwn
CYou can alwFays gGo back hoCme
Well, you juFst might Gbe there aClone
GI'm drunk and you're insane
CI can't quit and you won't change
D7Ain't no halfhearted romeo
GWhy do you treat me so?
Like our love's a jFoke
It hurts too much to Claugh
Can't you least sGmile
When you call me thCat
CNow, days are haFrder than yGou would beClieve
CI ain't having luFck maGking ends meCet
CIf time were moFney then loGok at mCe
I'm riFcher than a poGor man should bCe
GPrice of admission is much too steep
CFor broke uneducated clowns like me
D7It may be true I was the first to leave
GBut now I'm begging you please
My heart's on my slFeeve
And I'm tipping my hCat
Can't you at least sGmile
When you call me tChatC7  
Not much is certain but this mFuch is true
My arms are useless if they dCon't have you
They hang around me with noFthing to do
I'm hoping you and yours are loGnesome too
CNeon's buzFzing and heGre I aCm
CLast one stFanding, laGst call agCain
CWhile you're unfFolding in a straGnger's haCnds
I'll drFink up and be soGmebody's mCan
GAngels can walk I've seen it before
CThey turn handles and they open doors
D7They act like devils, now you've been warned
GThey'll vanish when love is war
I'm down on my knFees
And you won't have me bCack
But can't you at least Gsmile
When you call me tChat

Chords in this song · guitar

C F G C

You're gonna say I told you so

C F G C

I never should have let you go

C F G C

Ain't it funny that here we are

F G C

The two of us in two different bars

C F G C

In separate cages dancing slow

C F G C

We ain't got nobody to call our own

C F G C

You can always go back home

F G C

Well, you just might be there alone

I'm drunk and you're insane

I can't quit and you won't change

Ain't no halfhearted romeo

Why do you treat me so?

Like our love's a joke

It hurts too much to laugh

Can't you least smile

When you call me that

C F G C

Now, days are harder than you would believe

C F G C

I ain't having luck making ends meet

C F G C

If time were money then look at me

F G C

I'm richer than a poor man should be

Price of admission is much too steep

For broke uneducated clowns like me

It may be true I was the first to leave

But now I'm begging you please

My heart's on my sleeve

And I'm tipping my hat

Can't you at least smile

C C7

When you call me that

Not much is certain but this much is true

My arms are useless if they don't have you

They hang around me with nothing to do

I'm hoping you and yours are lonesome too

C F G C

Neon's buzzing and here I am

C F G C

Last one standing, last call again

C F G C

While you're unfolding in a stranger's hands

F G C

I'll drink up and be somebody's man

Angels can walk I've seen it before

They turn handles and they open doors

They act like devils, now you've been warned

They'll vanish when love is war

I'm down on my knees

And you won't have me back

But can't you at least smile

When you call me that

[repeat chorus]
