[Verse]
G C G C
They stuck you in the dirt, while I was still away
G C G C
Nobody had the decency to tell me about it anyways
G C G C
Well, I guess it's for the best they laid you down to rest
G C G C
Without some wreck like me to ruin things and turn into a mess
G C G C x2
[Verse]
G C G C
I remember when we ran away and the car we stole broke down
G C G C (Palm Mute)
Along some dusty desert highway with nobody else around
G C G C
And so we hitched a ride to Reno, but the ring I got you wouldn't fit
G C G C
And the minister got drunk before we laughed 'til we got sick
[Chorus]
Am
And of course, I know you could have done much better
C D G C
And I know that I must have been your bad habit
G C
Some rotten man.
G C
Nobody's savior.
G C
Your oldest friend
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G C
I haven't slept the same since you've been gone
G C
And when I do sleep, the nightmares come
G C G C
This hell I live in hasn't been the same without you here
G C G C
Our daughter still won't speak to me. My letters aren't returned at all
G C G C
I can't believe the mess I've made of things
[Chorus]
Am
And of course, I know you could have done much better
C D G C
And I know that I must have been a real fuckin' nightmare
G C
Some rotten man.
G C
Nobody's savior.
G C
Your oldest friend
