Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
And your eyes are unaware C That I've been staring at them all night
Wishing the brain behind them cared Am About the way you make me feel
Or how your smile makes me nervous D Or how the fact that you exist
Makes me feel like I have a purpose
Em9 I'm sick of lying in your bed
While we're both laying down C You say you want me for a friend
I hope you know I hate that sound Am But I will bite my tongue
Because I hate when you're pissed off D But you should know I need your touch
Like falling rain on thirsty crops but
[Chorus] CDGDC Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard DGDC The space between our lips is bound to break my ever-aching heart DGDC And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you More. D(Pause) So why won't you love me
Em9, C
[Verse 2] Em9 Well I hate your cigarettes
And the men that you go see C Because one is killing you
While the other's killing me Am But I know that you'll stay stubborn
cause you know I'll stay alone D cause we both know inside your grasp
Is the only place I feel at home Em9 Now I sit with my guitar
Write you one more stupid song C I hate the way you make me feel
Like I'm doing something wrong Am But you'll just have to deal
With all the things that I have mentioned D And I'll hope this song is golden
Like the point of my intentions but
[Chorus] CDGDC Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard CDGDC The space between our lips is bound to break my ever-aching heart DGDC And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you More. D(Pause) So why won't you love me
1, C
[Verse 3] Em9 Well now the beat is done
And there is nothing left to say C Pray to the god you don't believe in
That'll you'll love me someday Am So when the years that go by
Forget how much I cared D Put in this song and sing along C So your heart will be aware
[Outro] DGDC It's like giving up on everything that you believe DGDC To put your trust in a girl that stole your heart right off your sleeve DGDC And I'm so sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you
More. D(Pause) Em9(One Strum) But you just won't love me
