D                                                  G 
I could tell you the moment, the time and the place, the cashmere I was wearing 
D                              G          A 
A totally different, brand new woman, not the girl you let in 
D                                     G                A 
Into your apartment who just went and lost it, all the sense she was raised with 
    Em                                 A 
And she didnt know what kissing youd mean 
 

 
D                                            G 
You buy the groceries, she pours the coffee, you go for something stronger 
D                                         G 
We play all the same games but all of the rules change when you say it 
A 
wont last longer than 
        D                             G 
That August day standing in the shade, just past my birthday 
        Em                              A 
And you forgot to tell me who you were 
 

 
D                                                  G 
That underground summer cost so much more than the train fare 
D                                           G 
Just three weeks and two cups of whiskey to get there 
              D 
I could never beat the taste 
              G 
I could never bear the shame 
           D 
But after a few years of the same old tears 
G 
I cant even tell you how much I love that we never speak 
 

 
D                                   G 
I get on the offense, said I didnt feel shit, you were a mask I was wearing 
D                          G                     A 
Ease the transition, be a cliche then find the thing I was missing 
D                                     G 
November days turned to winter grays, and damn it was fun 
       D                                               G 
Trade Jameson for Jack, said Id never look back, and then theres the business end of your gun 
 

 
D                                                  G 
That underground summer cost so much more than the train fare 
D                                           G 
Just three weeks and two cups of whiskey to get there 
              D 
I could never beat the taste 
              G 
I could never bear the shame 
           D 
But after a few years of the same old tears 
G 
I cant even tell you how much I love that we never speak 
 

 
D                                    G 
Its not that I need you, dont even want you 
                A 
Dont you dare say my name 
D                                    G 
Its not that I need you, dont even want you 
                A 
Dont you dare say my name 
D                                    G 
Its not that I need you, dont even want you 
               A 
Dont you dare say my name 

D                                     G 
Its not that I need you, dont even want you 
A 
I don't need you 

D                                            G 
I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't 
I don't need you
