C5
I was listening to our records
G5
But I never played our song
C5
The Underground sang "Sunday Morning"
G5
Lou Reed was never wrong


C5
I wanna write you something
G5
Sing it from my heart
C5
Stole the words from a Hallmark card
A5
I never used, but they're so true

chorus
C5                                  G5
Sorry I Can't Write A Song About You
C5                      G5
Sorry I Can't Write A Song About You


C5
I was watching some old movie
G5
It really wasn't that good
C5
It wasn't "Inside Daisy Clover"
G5
There was no Natalie Wood


C5
I wanna tell you something
G5
Say it from my soul
C5
The words got stuck in my throat
A5
Nothing came out, but I meant it loud
