C F C
Oh, a TV went off like three day old milk
C F G* C*
They shut this town down better than most
D Bm Am F C
And it always was less of an idea and more of a boast
C F C
Oh, you're burning in the bloom of life
C F G* C*
'Til you're powder in the grave
D Bm Am
Or you're pounding on the counter begging for more
F C
'Til you evaporate
Ab Gm
You'd forgive her anything
F Bb F Bb Ab
If you look like you, my pretty miss
Gm F
I wonder where you are tonight
Bb F Bb C*
When this place becomes pitiless
Repeat intro
C F C
Oh, I couldn't sleep, but I can't complain
C F C
(Oh, she offered it all but she forgot to say when)
C F G* C*
Oh, this won't hurt a bit, oh, this won't hurt again
D Bm Am F C
When the roof comes down and the walls move in
C F C
Oh, I didn't know it could feel like that
C F G* C*
When your face turned away and the day turned black
D Bm
And the rain fell like a curtain
Am F C
Oh, it's my turn to begin
C F G* C*
To forgive her anything
Ab Gm
You'd forgive her anything
F Bb F Bb
If you knew what I have known
Ab Gm
You'd forgive her anything
Ab Gm
(It's forgiven and forgotten)
F Bb F Bb A
So where did all my pride go?
Ab Gm F Bb F Bb
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Ab Gm F Bb F Bb A
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Ab Gm
You'd forgive her anything
F Bb F Bb
If you knew what I have known
Ab Gm
I've been given and forgotten
F Bb F Bb A
More than you will ever know
Ab Gm F Bb F Bb
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
