[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
CM D6
Well, King Midas put his hands on me again?
G6 Bsus4
He said one day I'd realize why I don't have any friends
CM D6
I find myself alone at night unless I'm havin' sex
Em Em7
But he can make me golden if I just showed some respect
[Refrain]
CM D6
But I don't let him touch me anymore
G6 Bsus4
I said "I'm not something to butter up and taste when you get bored
CM D6
'Cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
Em Em7
To find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden door"
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
I said, "It's too late"
Em
I said, "It's too late"
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
I said, "It's too late"
I said, "It's too late"
[Chorus]
CM D6
And now I can't stop thinking that I can't stop thinking
G6 Bsus4
That I almost gave you everything
CM D6
And now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing
Em Em7
That I never gave you anything
[Verse 2]
CM D6
You wrote a hundred letters just for me
G6 Bsus4
And I find them in my closet in the pockets of my jeans
CM D6
Now I'm constantly reminded of the time I was nineteen
Em Em7
Every single one's forgotten in a laundromat machine
[Refrain]
CM D6
But I don't let him touch me anymore
G6 Bsus4
I said "I'm not something to butter up and taste when you get bored
CM D6
'Cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
Em Em7
To find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden door"
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
I said, "It's too late"
Em
I said, "It's too late"
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
He said, "Please don't go away"
Em
I said, "It's too late"
I said, "It's too late"
[Chorus]
CM D6
And now I can't stop thinking that I can't stop thinking
G6 Bsus4
That I almost gave you everything
CM D6
And now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing
Em Em7
That I never gave you anything
CM D6
And now I can't stop thinking that I can't stop thinking
G6 Bsus4
That I almost gave you everything (I said, "It's too late")
CM D6
And now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing
Em Em7
That I never gave you anything
