VERSE 1:
A5                             C#5
I took your pictures down and off the wall today
A5                           C#5
Every time I look at them I think of yesterday
        D5    D5                             A5
And I'm sorry but it's time I pack our life away


VERSE 2:
A5                          C#5
I thought about you when I made the bed today
A5                               C#5
The left pillow untouched where your head used to lay
         D5     D5                              A5
Don't be sorry, things will be better off this way


CHORUS:
A5     C#5  D5        D5
Don't be afraid to say how it is
A5     C#5  D5         D5
Don't be ashamed of crushing my dreams
A5        C#5   D5                D5         A5
Though I feel betrayed, I'm so glad I met you
C#5      D5     D5
Oh, oh, oh... (etc.)


QUICK SAX/ORGAN RIFF:

VERSE 3:
A5                              C#5
This is the hardest thing I've had to just accept
A5                           C#5
Alcohol and cigarettes have filled the void you've left
        D5     D5                            A5
And I'm hungry but I think I'll stay in bed today

BRIDGE:
D5                    D5
I still remember the first time I saw you
   A5               C#5            D5   D5
We met because the Cake show was late
D5                 D5
And you looked so beautiful
A5                          E5
I had to come and ask your name
                           A5
I had to come and ask your name

OUTRO:
A5                            C#5
I never thought this was the way that this would end
A5                           C#5
Keep pinching myself hoping this was just a dream
               D5        D5                        A5
Hope life gets better... I will be rid of you someday
