C 
Am 
F 
G 
C 
To satisfy
G 
Am 
a woman like you
F 
G 
Would take a better man than me
C 
Cm 
G 
Am 
Or maybe a lesser spineless one
F 
G 
Who would go down on his knees
C 
G 
Am 
I ponder this while I study
F 
G 
The broken vessels in my face
C 
G 
Am 
And I wet the rusty razor
F 
G 
And  I shave just in case
F 
Am 
I'll find me a modest beauty
G 
D 
Who doesn't care much who she's with
F 
Am 
She'll say you have pretty lashes
G 
D 
And take me back to where she lives
C 
G 
Am 
And though she'll expect nothing
F 
G 
I will treat her kind and true
C 
G 
Am 
We'll awake tomorrow morning
F 
And cure our heads with a
G 
C 
drink or two
F 
Am 
Maybe I'll see her again next
Friday
G 
D 
And  we'll screw within what to do
F 
Am 
And she'll say she doesn't mind at all
G 
D 
Even though all I do is talk about you
C 
F 
G 
Am 
It will all get too familiar,
F 
G 
and  then I'll have to leave
C 
G 
Am 
I'll pretend that I'm unhappy,
F 
G 
but I'll be laughing up my sleeve
F 
Am 
We'll kiss goodbye and then I'll shut the door
G 
D 
I'll be feeling good when I hit the street
F 
Am 
The noonday sun warm upon my face
G 
D 
The solid ground beneath my feet
F 
Am 
I'll find me a modest beauty
G 
D 
Who's just been broken by her man
F 
Am 
I'll say you have pretty lashes
G 
And take her back to
D 
F 
Am 
C 
where it all began
G 
Take a bite to where it all began
D 
F 
Am 
G 
D 
Take a bite to where it all began
You
