Intro: A5 E5 B5 D5 2x


Verse 1:


A5             E5          B5           D5
You threw me out on the sidewalk last night, 
A5             E5               B5         D5
You dumped my clothes out the window too.
A5         E5            B5             D5
I threw rocks at the glass panes and wood, 
            A5      E5        B5           D5   
We need to talk I needed a word with you.

A5       E5          B5           D5
We made up on the couch on the floor, 
A5        E5         B5            D5
But you told me I needed to lose
A5       E5           B5       D5
A few pounds on the body I loved, 
           A5          E5             B5         D5
I went to work and I talked with a man I grew up with.


Chorus:


He said, 
A5       E5                          F#5     E5           D5
"Oh, a sad sight you are, you are slowly unraveling me.
A5        E5                          F#5         E5           D5
Oh, no tears on a Tuesday you need better than what he can give you.
F#5          E5           D5
Better than what he can give you."


Interlude: A5 E5 B5 D5 2x


Verse 2:

A5           E5         B5          D5
He held me tight for longer than normal, 
A5           E5       B5           D5
I cuddled close, I couldn't believe it.
A5             E5          B5          D5
He whispered words in my ear it was nice, 
        A5          E5            B5            D5
But it wasn't the same when he called me the wrong name.

A5      E5            B5              D5
I ran off down the street down the corner, 
        A5       E5            B5      D5
And he caught me in his arms.
A5         E5         B5         D5
And once again he delivered a comfort, 
   A5          E5          B5          D5
A need I had known ever since I was young.


Chorus:


He said, 
A5       E5                            F#5      E5          D5
"Oh, a sweet sight you are, you are slowly unraveling me.
A5         E5                           F#5           E5              D5
Oh, I 'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who would lose you.
    F#5          E5              D5
A strange man indeed who could lose you."


Interlude: A5 E5 D5 4x

A5 hold     E5 hold                       F#5      E5       D5
Oh,     a sweet sight you are, you are slowly undoing me.
A5        E5                           F#5           E5              D5
Oh, I'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who could lose you.
   F#5           E5              D5 hold
A strange man indeed who could lose you.
