_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] And it's [F#] true we [D] named our children after [Em] towns that [E] we'd never been to
[G] And it's true that the clouds just [G] hung around _ [A] like black _ catalogs outside [E] a funeral
And [Am] we were done, done, [C] done with all the fuck, fuck, fucking around
_ _ [G] _ _
You [Am] were so true to yourself, you were true to [C] no one
[C] And I'm glad I could put you in the ground
[G]
I've [Am] got the time, I've got the [C] hours, I've got the days, I've got the weeks
I could say to myself, I've [G] got words but I can't speak
Well [Am] I was done, done, [Em] done with all the [F] fuck, fuck, fucking [C] around
I _ _ [G] _
_ [A#] _ didn't die and I ain't complaining, [F] I ain't [C] blaming you
_ [G]
I [Am] _ didn't know that the words you said to [C] me meant more to me than they ever could to [G] you
_ [A#] I didn't lie and I ain't [C]
saying [F] I told the whole truth
[Bm]
I [Am] _ didn't know that this game we were [C] playing even had a set of rules
_ [D] _
_ [B] _ We named our children [A] after towns that [B] we'd never [F#m]
been to
And [Bm] it's true that the clouds just [G] hung around like [A] black catalogs outside a funeral
And we [G] were laughing at the stars while our feet clung tight to [A] the ground
_ _ [E] _ _ [A] _
[Bm] So pleased with ourselves for using some inverse and [A] nouns
But we were all still [Am] just dumb, dumb, dumber than the [F] dirt, dirt that [C] sat on the ground
_ _ [G] _ _
Well [Am] we were playing skinks with no names, well just playing jokes [C] and you got right here, right now
[G]
You were [Am] so out of a town, but still so clear on the ground, well [C] you should run around [D] yourself right [G] now
And we [Am] were done, done, done with all the fuck, fuck, fucking [C] around Fuckin' around
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
