D5         B5           G5         G5
I see you naked in the bath
D5    B5                   G5         G5
Cigarette stains on your hands
D5      B5            G5    G5
Wilted flowers in a vase
           D5       B5      G5         G5
I ask how are you

D5         B5           G5         G5
I see the lipstick on your glass
D5                B5               G5         G5
I think your're drunk I start to laugh
D5            B5               G5     G5
I found your note the letters ran
            D5         B5     G5         G5
They said I loved you, yes I loved you
