Verse 1
Am 
It's been eighteen months
since I kissed you once,
C 
So just saying "hi" just
isn't going to fly,
Bm 
But if you give me a clue
and a minute or two,
G 
C 
Then I might remember your name.
Am 
And I hate to insist that I
was really that pissed,
C 
But to tell the truth, in my flush of youth,
G 
I would drown my sight until faces
Bm 
C 
and nights seemed the same.
Am 
And a nervous shrug and
an awkward hug
C 
Won't get me out of the
hole that I've dug,
G 
So I slip the noose with a poor excuse
C 
And talk to someone, anyone else.
Am 
And I sit with my friends
and I try to pretend
C 
That I never did that sort of thing again,
G 
But I'm lying to myself.
C 

Verse 2
G 
And suddenly it's as clear as
C 
Csus2 
clear could be:
C 
Em 
I'm not quite the perfect man
C 
Csus2 
that I hoped I'd be.
C 
G 
And though I always tried to
C 
Csus2 
live an honest life,
C 
Em 
To tell my truth I've told my share of lies.

Verse 3
Am 
I remember you, of course I do,
C 
But I don't recall how many
times we've been through
G 
This little game,
that always ends the same,
C 
With you sad and me far away.
Am 
And every time I repeat the line
C 
That the fault's not mine
and I wasn't unkind.
G 
But the worst part is that I've got nothing else to say.

Verse 4
B 
Em 
And all the pretty little pictures
D 
C 
of faith and firm devotion
G 
That I painted as a child,
B 
Em 
Well they have fallen by the wayside,
D 
C 
along with all my puppy- fat,
G 
But my days have taught me this:
B 
Em 
That every day I spend pretending
D 
C 
that I always choose the right path
Is a day that I choose the wrong.
G 

Verse 5
B 
Am 
Oh yes my wisdom teeth have
been giving me grief –
C 
They woke me up to find that
I'm exactly the kind of
G 
Guy I said that I'd rather be dead than be
C 
In the days before I got laid.
