Capo 3rd
Intro: Am C
C Am
I wish I had more nice things to say
Em F
But I was raised not to lie
C Am
I'm either honest, or I'm an optimist
Em F
But never both at the same time
G Am
And everyone knows the deal
F C
Gotta take what you can
Em Am
'cause anything I don't steal
C G
Just winds up in someone else's hands
C Am
There's only so much good a man can take
Em F
When he ain't so good himself
C Am
You remind me of what I could've been
Em F
But that reminder ain't much help
Dm F C
So it's better if you were on your way
Dm Am
If you were somewhere far from me
Dm F C
So you could dream I turned out well
F G
And I... I could just go to sleep
(C Am Em F Am Em F G) x2 over the "Ooo-oo-oo"s
C Am
I wish I had more nice things to say
Em F
But I was raised not to lie
C Am
I'm either honest, or I'm an optimist
Em F
But never both at the same time
