Verse 1:
A              F#m
Why you turned out
the way you did
E      A
  That thunderstorm
         F#m
is still crashing
             E
in Your cranium
A
Find that all these
F#m
funny faces look the same
E
I know who's to
D           E(hold)
blame But I swore 
           A  F#m E A F#m E
I wouldn't say 


Verse 2:
     A
It's time that
F#m            E
I got moving on
   A
As you're still
burning the
F#m
dress you wore
          E
to senior prom
A         F#m
Try to forget how
you've been touched
  E
I loved you so I told you
       D
But it didn't matter much


Chorus 1:
        A
And I'm trying 
to figure out
D
  What you're all
            F#m
about these days
I don't have much
          E
to say to you
    A
And I've been
drunker than a
           D
skunk Ever since
the day I left you
          F#m
With your darkest 
                      E
secret safely packed away
                 A    F#m E A F#m E(hold)
Up in my steamer trunk


Verse 3:
A            F#m
Why I turned out
             E
the way I did
A
Someone somewhere
F#m
dropped me on
        E
my cranium
    A
I'm sorry can 
      F#m
you repeat what
you just said
   E
My short term 
memory is gone
       D
But my long term's
far from dead


Chorus 2:
        A
And I'm trying 
to figure out
D
  What you're all
            F#m
about these days
I don't have much
          E
to say to you
    A
And I've been
drunker than a
           D
skunk Ever since
the day I left you
          F#m
With your darkest 
                      E
secret safely packed away
                 A    D F#m E
Up in my steamer trunk
                 A    D F#m E
Up in my steamer trunk


Chorus 3:
    A
I'm trying 
to figure out
D
  What you're all
            F#m
about these days
I don't have much
          E
to say to you
    A
and I've been
swearing
like a sailor
D
since the day 
that I left her
          F#m
With your darkest 
                      E
secret safely packed away
                 A(hold)
Up in my steamer trunk
