E      Fm              A               E
I have weaknesses like all my brothers do
          Fm            A                 Fm    Am
An objectifying eye and hands that follow suit
          E              Fm              A      Am*
Some ugly allergy to the true love on my plate
      C#m           D             A        E
Wrong wiring, connections I can't make


           Fm                 A               E
I had this pocketwatch from a love I couldn't claim
          Fm          A               Fm     Am
I lost in Luxembourg, whispering your name
               E            Fm                  A      Am*
To a sculpture garden where time won't heal all wounds
    C#m          D              A                E
WIthout regret I still remember every night with you

Fm A E  Fm A E
         
            Fm                   A             E
I felt your belly blessed with a blooming baby boy
              Fm                    A              Fm      Am**
I dreamt he'd be mine once - like I really had the choice
        E                  Fm           A      Am*
Kids do stupid things, and I was, and I did
       C#m            D            A       E
A long life ago, some other person lived


           Fm               A             E
She seemed satisfied in the corner of the frame
          Fm                    A             Fm   Am
Until she turned to me, said "I need to walk away
         E                Fm               A        Am*
Speak no argument, you're nowhere close to sure;
    C#m           D                   A        E
I'm sorry, but, I don't have time for sorry anymore."
