Expiration Date

	  		
Verse 1:
    E 
The night I met you I said 
    G#m 
I'd never want to die 
     C#m 
If I had a boy like you 
       B 
'Cause how could death improve 
        E 
On that? And I want it known 
 G#m 
Let the record show 
         C#m 
That for all my talk of love 
        B 
I never once knew what it was 


         A 
Until it left 
        E 
Left me here 
   B 
So alive 
    C#m          B     A 
But without you by my side 
                  E 
And that's what I get 
           B                         A               E 
I spent my love on something with an expiration date 


Verse 2:
     E 
From sea to sea I'm sailing 
    G#m 
The memories are fading 
      C#m 
But I always see your face 
B 
Dancing in the waves 
    E 
And now what's there to say? 
   G#m 
So let the record play 
        C#m 
Because all that comes to pass 
    B 
Has nothing on the past 


   A 
It seems 
          E 
Now in my dreams 
        B 
I'm the queen 
   C#m   B          A 
Of everything I've lost 
               E 
But that's the cost 
                    B 
When you spend your love on something 
        A               E  B 
With an expiration date 


( E  G#m  C#m ) 
( B  A  B ) 

Verse 3:
    E 
The night I met you I said 
    G#m 
I'd never want to die 
     C#m 
If I had a boy like you 
  B 
I hadn't thought it through 
    E 
And now the season turned 
    G#m 
And still there's nothing learned 
        C#m 
Because I've still got your letters 
     B                              A 
And, yes, I read them twice tonight 


     E 
I am here 
   B 
So alive 
        C#m      B     A 
But without you by my side 
                  E 
And that's what I get 
           B                         A               E 
I spent my love on something with an expiration date 
           B                         A               E 
I spent my love on something with an expiration date 
           B                         A               E 
Spent all my love on something with an expiration date
