Verse 1
(G major) I said I could love you as a friend,
(B minor) and not a lover
I (E minor) do believe I was mistaken (C major)
But all but (G major) given time, wounds for men
(D major) Please (B minor) remember,
a postcard (E minor) is still not a vaca (C major) tion
And (D major) I don't ever want to take (C major) the blame
For call (G major) ing you at (D major) the
wrong time of day (E minor)
And (D major) I don't ever want to play (C major) your part
in all (G major) of (D major) the games that you play (E minor) (A major)
(D major) There was this (G major) girl in my (D major) fifth grade (C major)
She drew pretty (D major) pictures of
(G major) her mom (D major) and her dad (C major)
And of both (D major) their sisters
But (E minor) I've never (D major) found out just (G major) what
kind (C major) of love to her (D major) I've made (G major)
When you said you'd stand by me through rich and poor,
(B minor) good and bad times (E minor)
Did you mean that was forever (C major) ?
Or was it (G major) just a (D major) promise to a
(B minor) guy you don't believe in?
Lay out (E minor) our lives
measure by (C major) measure (D major)
And I will not accept (C major) the shame
I never (G major) (D major) promised not to change (E minor) (D major)
I would never play (C major) your part
Warm (G major) an (D major) d begging to
change (E minor) (A major) (D major)
There was this girl (G major) in my (D major) fifth grade, (C major)
she'd draw pretty (D major) pictures of (G major) her (D major) mom, and her dad, (C major)
and of both (D major) her sisters,
(E minor) but I nev (D major) er found out just (G major) what happened (C major) to her (D major) .
Yeah, it's really (G major) good.
Outro 1
(G major) (D major)
