INTRO: Dm Bbm C F x 2
(VERSE 1)
Dm Bbm/C# C F/C
If this is a ghetto, I'm in it with you
Dm Bbm/C# C F/C
If it's just a prison, I'm locked in it too
Bb/D C Am7 Dm C Bb
I tried to leave you, but after all that we had said
C Am7 Dm C
I went to pieces when I should have shouted and screamed
Bbm C Bb/D F/C Bb/D F/C
instead. So sorry, I said
(SAME AS VERSE 1)
Your powers of persuasion, those quizzical eyes
Have tired and tied me with innocent guile.
I would have walked out, and after all the tears we shed
I should have stalked out, gone and painted the town bright red
But instead, So sorry I said
(BRIDGE)
Ab C#m E/G# F#
How tough it gets, don't talk to me about it!
Ab C#m E/G# F#
To pay off your debts, I worked on overtime
F#m Am
And you say you never believed in luck!
(VERSE 3)
Dm Bbm C F
If you need a reason, consider me mad
Dm Bbm C F
An old retainer, loyal and sad
Bb C Am7 Dm C Bb
I bought my freedom, but after all that we had shared
C Am7 Dm C Bbm C
I couldn't leave you. Think of the skins I'd have to shed ins-tead
Bb F Bb F
So sorry, I said
Bb F Bb F
So Sorry, I said
Bbm C Bb F Bb Bbm F
Oooh! So sorry, I said
