Unwrite That Song                       (Capo: 2.)
Intro: D D*  D** A    G A D______

D                             D*               D 
Well I heard it on the late-night radio 
               G                           A                 D
For the umpteenth time headin' from LA to the Florida coast 
D                             D*                       D
I was in between black coffee and shifting gears 
              G                       A                           D 
When the second verse took a turn and brought me to tears 
              G                        A                        
They were talkin' about love, I do and forever 
      D                              D*                        
And how two people ought to stay together 
            G                                                   A       
Well the music hit me but the singer's got it all wrong 

                  D       D*               D**  A 
Unwrite that song   unwrite that song 
                       G                                          D   A
'Cause what he's saying to me don't go with that melody 
                  D      D*                   D**    A 
Unsing them lines about those happy times 
                            G     A                 D 
don't they know she's gone unwrite that song 


D                                     D*                             D 
Well it was 3 AM and she was cryin' and her eyes were all red 
                       G           A                         D
When that music video came on and she sat up in her bed 
D                                D*                          D 
She grabbed that whiskey bottle poured one last shot 
                      G            A                     D     A
And threw that empty glass at the TV and screamed 


                  D       D*               D**  A 
Unwrite that song   unwrite that song 
                       G                                          D   A
'Cause what he's saying to me don't go with that melody 
                  D      D*                   D**   A 
Unsing them lines about those happy times 
                            G     A                 D 
don't they know he's gone unwrite that song

Well there was a time that I believed all those words were true 
         G                                                         A      
And if I had a pen and paper right now I know what I'd do...

'Cause what he's saying to me don't go with that melody 
                  D      D*                   D**   A 
Unsing them lines about those happy times
