Verse 1:
Bb/D
If I paint a picture
G#
of the days gone by
Cm
I could tell a story
Eb
Minus the truth
Bb
It's the only way I
Bb/D
Couldn't walk a
G#
meter in your shoes
You'll see
When you see
Cm
They're soaked
Eb
I left them out in the rain
Bb
And they're heavy like weights
Theo: at "coudn't walk a meter"

I thought about you
G#
in my bed last night
Cm
You were a thousand years old
Eb Bb
Had a million boyfriends

I have a rubber stopper to

prevent the words from happening

Like a troubled spot within and

press with all my mightiness

Bend it back all the way

Make the best of old ideas

You lay down
