A5
who's gonna give a shit
C5
who's gonna take the call
A5
when you find out that the road ahead 
C5
is painted on a wall


A5
and you're turned up to top volume
C5
and you're just sitting there in pause
A5
with your feral little secret
C5
scratching at you with its claws
A5
and you're trying hard to figure out 
C5
just exactly how you feel
A5
before you end up parked and sobbing
C5
forehead on the steering wheel


A5
who are you now
C5
and who were you then
A5
that you thought somehow 
you could just pretend
C5
that you could figure it all out
A5
the mathematics of regret
C5
so it takes two beers to remember now
A5
and five to forget Dm
that i loved you so
A5
yeah, i loved you, so what




how many times undone
can one person be
as they're careening through the facade
of their favorite fantasy
you just close your eyes slowly
like you're waiting for a kiss
and hope some lowly little power
will pull you out of this
but none comes at first
and little comes at all
and when inspiration finally hits you
it barely even breaks your fall

who were you then 
and who are you 
now that you can't pretend
that you can figure it all out
subtract out the impact
and the fall is all you get
so it takes two beers to remember now
and three more to forget
that i loved you so
yeah, i loved you, so what
i loved you
so what
