Intro 

F   G   C 


 
F     G 
  My name sounds like 
C                F 
  It could be a nickname 
F     G                C 
Not really the whole story is seen 
                 F 
When you look at me 
    G                  C               F 
My name's spelled like a type of rare flower 
              G          C 
You try to commit to memory 
                            F 
But somehow forget after an hour 
 

 
F         G 
You never strung me along 
C 
I made that necklace of mother-of-pearl 
          F 
All on my own 
          G 
You never asked me for more 
C                  F 
I gave myself away freely 
 

 
F   G 
You bother me 
C                   F 
Though we're oceans apart 
                 G 
Don't need to be near you 
                  C                                   F 
To feel your cold shoulder, it's present, Unlike your face 
   G 
It bothered me 
C                  F 
When you chose her instead 
                         G 
But when I peel back the curtain 
          C                                     F 
All I can muster, defeated Is what did I really expect? 
 

 
F        G 
It never worked out for me 
C 
I tried and I've tried and I've tried 
                 F 
But where did it leave me 
                G 
I can paint the red maple leaves 
    C                             F 
But I can't make you fall in love with me 
 

 
F                                           G 
Polished my heels to perfection no matter I bled 
                                               C 
Reassurance'll never erase the things that you said 
                                                       F 
Against my best judgment past dreams of old awake from the dead 
 

 
F             G 
Time is not a foolproof cure 
C 
Just when I'd forgotten about you 
                             F 
Guess who walked through the door 
          G 
One day I looked up to find 
      C 
You'd traveled past poet and princess 
                          F 
To chase a dream that was mine
