[A] [Em] [D]
I was just talking outside, it was cold, [Bb] shivering yet warm [D] by the subject matter of my life.
This next room, we've been having trouble, [Dm] you know.
[Bb] Please don't tell her anyone, but I need to [Gm] talk to somebody.
[D] You said, wouldn't it be a shame if I knew how great I was [Bb] five minutes before I died?
I'd [G] be filled with such regret [D] before I took my last breath and I said,
You're willing to tell me this now, and [Bb] you're not going to die.
[G] Many times this moment I [D] said, I wouldn't be eating chicken or meat or anything.
And you said, yes, [Bb] but you've been wearing [G] leather.
[D] And laughing said, we're the top of the food chain, and yes, you're still a fine [Bb] woman.
[G] I am [D] just hoping, I was [G] hoping we could eat out each other.
[D]
I was [G] hoping we could be flying in a [D] flight.
You left the restaurant with a head waiter, and since you said [Dm] goodbye, sir, thank you for your business, sir.
You're successful and established, sir.
I like the frequency with which you dine, yes, sir.
And [Bb] you're my, [Gm] my name.
[D] When I walked by, they said, thank you too, dear.
I was all [Bb] details and floors.
And there [G] was a day when I would have said something [D] like, hey dude, I could buy and sell this place.
[Bb] You said, I too once thought I [G] was worth something.
[D] I was hoping I was [G] fine, we could challenge each other.
[D] I was hoping I was [G] fine, we could eat each other.
[D] She thought that one proved point or somehow.
And I too once thought life was good.
Well, and it's a cycle really, you think I'm withdrawing, you're tripping.
[Bb] I said, you're insensitive and I [G] don't feel hurt.
And I said, take [D] me out.
Fundamentally, [Bb] judgmental, fundamentally ill.
And you [D] said, yes.
I said, I don't believe in revenge, and I [Bb] know wrong.
You're the baddest [G] seller, what about the man that I saw hang [D]-glopping the emergency room?
Ringing after ringing, yes, he had a change to throw a [Bb] shoe over his head.
And I think [G] what he did was wrong.
[D] And I wouldn't care how it sounds, feeling compassion far down my head.
[Bb] Watch my tongue for [G] fear of having you feel [D] judged.
I was hoping, [G] I was hoping we could dance together.
[D] I was hoping, I [G] was hoping we could beat me together.
