Baby I've been brewing my own beer
C5                        F5
I'd pour you a pint if you were still here
C5                        F5
I know your new man's kind of a big deal
         G5                            F5
But I bet he don't brew his own beer

C5                        F5
Baby I quit smoking those cigarettes 
C5                        F5
If I could only get off this Nicorette
C5                        F5
You know I only started because we met
G5                        F5
Thanks for being a sport about my breath

C5  F5  G5  F5           C5  F5  G5  F5
You didn't get the best of me
F5                  G5
The best of me came after you
F5                        G5
Now it's being wasted on someone new

C5                        F5
Baby I've been cooking this gumbo
C5                        F5
With okra, celery, peppers, quote-sausage-quote
C5                        F5
It's a shame I never got to fix you a bowl
G5                        F5
But maybe sometime later ? you never know


C5                        F5
And babe I finally finished a marathon
C5                        F5
Next year I'm trying to qualify for Boston
C5                        F5
Remember all our hung-over morning runs?
G5                               F5
Well, without you the miles seem twice as long


E5                          F5
I hear you finally found your sound
E5                        F5
Your low notes always fell to the ground
E5                         F5                    G5     A5
I hear you finally found your sound second-hand

C5  F5  G5  F5           C5  F5  G5  F5
You didn't get the best of me
F5                  G5
The best of me came after you
F5                  G5
Now it's being wasted on someone new
F5                  G5
I'm wasted now with someone in lieu

C5                        F5
Baby I've been brewing my own beer
C5                        F5
I'd pour you a pint if you were still here
C5                        F5
I know your new man's kind of a big deal
         G5                            F5
But I bet he don't brew his own beer
