Tom: G5

      G5                       D5
   Night with its shattered teeth attempts to speak
    C5                         G5               *G*
   My pen is present but courage left via the sink
         G5                             D5
   And I'm sorry I snuck up on you from behind
       C5                      G5           
   I'm sorry not all my love letters did rhyme
   D5                              G5
   And I'm sorry that Jesus died for my sins
        D5                              G5
   And I swear to God it won't happen again
     D5                                                    D5     C5   C5
   And I'm sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway
     D5              G5             G5
   Oh well, sometimes it be that way
  D5                          C5
   And Romeo was a very nice man
       G5           G5                    G5          G5
   He said "Jewel, I don't think you quite understand" 
     D5                                           C5
   And I'm sorry if you had to explain it like this
          G5                                       D5
   I'm sorry I was a point you were destined to miss
        G5                               D5
   And I'm sorry I spoke to you irreverently
       G5                                 D5
   Down in the hollow by the old olive tree
       D5                                         C5         C5
   And I'm sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day 
     D5  D5      G5               G5
   Oh well, sometimes It be that way
   
   Chorus:
                 D5            G5   
       I said "Oh well, I got nothing left to sell
                D5                 G5
       This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
             D5                 G5               A5         A5
       I was bound to find out that you didn't care
        D5     D5         G5          G5
       Oh well, sometimes it be that way
    G5                             D5
   And Aphrodite with her neon lamp
     C5                                  G5
  Kissed Neptune they put her face on a stamp
           G5                                        D5
   And I'm sorry I used it to mail a letter to you
                    C5                                G5
   I'm sorry I'm glue and the rest bounces off of you
            D5                           G5
   And I'm sorry not even this jet's metal wings
          D5                            G5
   Could get across these simple things
      D5                   D5                  C5
   And I'm sorry if I ever sang your name in vain
   D5      D5        G5             G5
   Oh well, sometimes it be that way
       D5                         C5
   And Goldilocks, well she knew three bears
      G5           G5               GG*      GG*
   They all ate oatmeal and tiptoed upstairs
      D5                              C5
   And I'm sorry I never got to find you like this
      G5                           D5
   Sleeping like a baby and swaddled in bliss
       G5                         D5
   And I'm sorry for all the times
         G5                                   D5
   I forgot to imply something in between the lines
       D5                  C5                     C5
   And i'm sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day
      D5      D5          G5            G5
   Oh well, sometimes it be that way
   
   Chorus:

       I said "Oh well, I got nothing left to sell

       This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air

       I was bound to find out that you didn't care

       Oh well, sometimes it be that way
         G5                                       D5
   And shadow's long fingers they dance on the wall
         C5                           G5
   Electricity chases its tail in the hall
           G5                                     D5
   And 'm sorry if my arms to you were just empty rooms
            C5                        G5
   I'm sorry I never could comfort you


           D5                                G5
 And I'm sorry St. Petersburg is a miserable town-
           D5                       G5
   And I'm sorry if I am bringing you down
      D5    D5                       C5   
   And I'm sorry if I caused you pain
      C5    D5  D5      G5         G5
   Oh well, sometimes it be that way
    G5                                        D5
   And flame licks the air with its silver tongue
          C5                                G5
   Night has many hands but I have just one
            G5                                      D5
   And I'm sorry I walked in on you unexpectedly
               C5                              G5
   I'm sorry I never served you Camomile tea
          D5                                 G5
   And I'm sorry I didn't always have a match
     D5                                               G5
   That could start a fire big enough for your heart to catch
      D5                     D5                             C5
   And I'm sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway
   C5   D5     D5      G5                  *G*
   Oh well, sometimes it be that way
