[G#] [A#m] [Gm]
[C] [G#]
[C#] [N] And I threw this song in when I was playing most of the [D#] covers.
[C] [F] [Gm]
[C] [F#m] [G#m] I started at 9.30. and I think it's on [N] quarter until. I used to have this song in. [D#] [G#] Use everybody's cue [C#] to [F] go get a drink at the bar. [N] Do the mouth and mouth. Start a conversation with the person next door. Ease. [C#] [G#] And it just seemed like [G] they never wanted to listen to [D#] the song that I was playing. Just because they didn't like [E] it. [G#] It's kind of funny how life works. [Em] Because [Fm] that song went on to [G] sit at number one [F] for 17 weeks [N] straight. Made [A] [G#]
[G] it so that our record was the first record we used from the US to debut number one on your UK [N] charts. [F] [F#]
[G] [F#] [Fm]
[F#] The number one most played [D#] rock song on the radio for the whole decade. [N] [A] And [F#] went on to [F] allow me to continue doing [N] this that I'm doing for you now. So this is that shit heel song that no one wanted to hear. [G#]
[G#m] [F#]
[G#]
[B] [F#]
[G#m] It's [G#] been a [B] while since I could [F#] [G#] hold my head up high. It's been a [B] while since I [C#] first [F#] saw you. [C#] [F#] [G#] It's been a [B] while since I [F#] could stand on my [C#] own two feet [G#] again. It's been a [B] while since I [F#] could call you. [C#] [D#] And [G#] [B] everything I [F#] can't remember [C#] [G#] [G#m] has fucked [B] up as it [F#] always seems. [C#] [F#] [G#m] The [B] consequences that [F#] were after [C#] I [G#m] stretched [B] myself beyond my [F#] reach. [C#] [G#m] It's [C#] been a [B] while since I could [F#] say that [C#] I wasn't addicted. [G#] It's been a [B] while since I [F#] could say I love [C#] myself as well. [G#] It's been a [B] while. So [F#] I try to fuck things up just [G#m] like I [G#] always do. And it's been a [B] while. But [F#] all that shit seems to [C#] disappear [G#m] when I'm with you. And everything [B] I [F#] can't remember [C#] has [G#m] fucked [B] up as it always [F#] seems. [C#] [F#] [G#m] The [B] consequences that are [F#] rendered. [C#] [G#m] I'm counting [B] fuck things up [F#] again. [C#] [F#] [C#] [G#m]
Why must I feel this [F#] way? [C#] [G#m] Just make this go [F#] away. [C#] [G#] [G#m] Just one more peaceful [F#] day. [C#] [G#m] [G#]
It's been [B] a while since I [F#] could [C#] look at myself [G#] straight. It's been [B] a while since I [F#] said sorry. [C#] [F#] [G#] And it's been a [B] while since I've [G#m] seen [F#] the way [C#] that [G#] candles light your face. It's been a [B] while, but I can still [F#] remember [C#] just the way [G#] you taste. And [B] everything I [F#] remember [C#] [G#] [G#m] has fucked [B] up as it always [F#] seems. [C#] To me, I know [G#m] it's me. I cannot [B] blame this on my [F#] father. [C#] [G#m] He did [B] the best he could [F#] for me. [C#] [G#] And it's been a [B] while since I [F#] could hold [G#m] my head up high. It's been a [D#m] [B] while since I [F#] said I'm sorry. [B] [Fm] [N]
