[Intro]
G    B7    C  C/B  D
G    B7    C  C/B  D
[Verse 1]
G                          B7            C          C/B              D
  Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday, I've got a lot of things to learn
G                         B7                 C             C/B       D
  Said I would and I'd be leaving one day, before my heart starts to burn
[Pre-Chorus]
C                           D
  So what's the matter with you?
G         G/F#      Em
  Sing me something new
                   A7                                      C
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know, they only seem to come
        D
and go away
[Verse 2]

  Times are hard when things have got no meaning, I've found the key upon the floor
G                      B7                  C                C/B      D
  Maybe you and I will not believe in, the things we find behind the door
[Pre-Chorus]
C                           D
  So what's the matter with you?
G         G/F#      Em

Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know, they only seem to come
        D
and go away

  If you're leaving will you take me with you, I'm tired of talking on my phone
G                          B7                 C                C/B     D
