Verso 1 
 
       G         C              D                      G 
You’re totally ignoring me, she said as she put on her shirt 
      C            D                         G 
I was lying on the bed, concentrating on her skirt 
        C               D 
Did you hear one word I said? she said 
                         G 
I don’t know, it’s all a blur 
  C        D 
I close my eyes 


 
Verso 2 
 
   G                 C 
We fell in love in a great big rush 
      D                         G 
Three years ago this June, I do recall 
        C                 D 
Playing arcade games with her 
                       G 
And wanting nothing at all 
          C            D 
Just this silly skinny girl 
                       G     C 
Who tended to trip and fall 
       D 
On her lies 


 

 
         C                  D 
But then summer came and we felt the strain 
       C                   D 
Of the damning things we’d said 
        C                 D 
All the summer rains like hurricanes 
     C               D 
That flew around our heads 
        D             G 
All the endless conversations, you know 
         C                   D 
Like the things you could’ve done alone 
  Em                C                D 
Instead, instead, instead, instead,     instead 



 
Verso 3 
 
     G                   C                D 
So I fucked it up like I always do, I was born to be alone 
        G                C                      D 
I don’t even know if the words were true that I screamed into the phone 
      G            C              D 
All I know is everybody leaves or so it seems to me 
         G             C             D 
When I’m alone, alone, alone, alone, alone 


 
BRIDGE 
 
          Em               D                  C           D 
But I was younger then and stronger then, somehow I can’t explain 
          Em              D            C                 D 
How these years can be so humbling, so strangely full of pain 
         Em           D               C                     D 
Just how everyone and everything must change and change and change and change 
    G          C          D 
And change and change and change 

Just like that

Verso 4 
 
    G                 D                   C               D 
Sometimes I feel just like a train that’s running off the tracks 
        G                  C             D 
And sometimes I think I’ve said too many things I can’t take back 
        G                   C            D 
And sometimes it seems like everything I do is just a waste 
                G     C                  D 
In fact, that’s it, I think oh wait, I’m sure 


 
Verso 5 
 
        G            C              D 
But I’m trying every morning that I wake to stand up straight 
       G               C              D 
And to always tell the truth and give back more than I take 
          G        C          D 
And to be kind and pure, less fucking scared of everything 
  G    C     D                           G 
I just can’t take much more of this, I’m sure
