By three o' - clock they'll both be sitting on that plane

You can linger at the bar
Chorus:
G D
So bring on the rainclouds

D A/C# G D
With your standard issue broken heart
D Bm A Asus4 - A
You step into your saturday shoes
D A/C# G D
And you might feel better if you slapped her face
D A/C# G
Or slipped some pills in his wine
D A/C# G D
But in - stead some voice in your head keeps saying

You'll look back and laugh some - time
