           C                                                   F
I can't believe I was worried about hurting you, I should have kicked it 
                                             G
with your cousin when i had the opportunity. I was at some party and she 
                           F
said she had to talk to me, and then she didn't say anything. 

          C                                                  F
I can't believe I worried about hurting you, while you were banging around 
                                            G                          
the bars trying to scratch up something new. You left me fifty bucks and 
                         F
nothing much to do, but think about getting back at you.

  C                                                                   F
I heard that you've been back around the neighborhood, you might be still 
                                                        G
strung out but you still look pretty good. I heard that kid from california 
                                F
turned out to be an asshole, ha, I think I could have told you. 

     C                                                              F
You left with burning bridges but you never saw the beach, you had stars in 
                                       G
your eyes but Modesto's not that sweet. When you only know one guy and he 
 F
disappears for days at time.

           C                                                   F
I can't believe I was worried about hurting you, I should have kicked it 
                                            G
with your cousin when i had the opportunity. I was at some party and she 
                           F
said she had to talk to me, and then she didn't say anything.




An amazing song, enjoy.
