                    C    G
I don't want to get over you. I guess I could take 
  C        G        C        G            C
a sleeping pill and sleep at will and not have to 
   D
go through what I go through. I guess I should take 
C       G               C         G        C        D
Prozac, right, and just smile all night at somebody new,
         Am                 C
Somebody not too bright but sweet and kind who would   
Am             C                    Am               C
try to get you off my mind. I could leave this agony behind
         G             D
which is just what I'd do if I wanted to, but I don't 
            C    G                             C    G
want to get over you cause I don't want to get over love. 
                     C    G                 C     G                                       
I could listen to my therapist, pretend you don't exist
        C             D 
and not have to dream of what I dream of; I could listen              
   C      G              C   G         C            D      
to all my friends and go out again and pretend it's enough, 
           Am               C                   Am               
or I could make a career of being blue--I could dress 
             C                 Am
in black and read Camus, smoke clove cigarettes and drink 
C               G           D
vermouth like I was 17 that would be a scream but I 
don't want to get over you.vhe c
