[Intro]
G G/F# Cadd9 D
[Verse]
G G/F# Cadd9 D
The older I am, the wiser I'm not
G G/F# Cadd9 D
and I felt ashamed of how angry I got
G G/F# Cadd9
when I was not getting my message across
D Cadd9
I know you can't stand me when that's how I talk
D Cadd9
when I summon a duel or when I brandish a thought
G G/F# Cadd9
I was wrong to turn honesty against you
D Cadd9
and sure, some of them could use a good talk
[Chorus]
G G/F# Cadd9 D
but babe, don't tell all our friends about me
G G/F# Cadd9 D
Please, baby, don't tell our friends about me
[Verse]
G G/F# Cadd9 D
I'll sleep on the couch if you want me to
G G/F# Cadd9 D
or I can be a good dog and just sit with you
G G/F# Cadd9
Do whatever it is that you ask me to do
D Cadd9
'til you forgive me and I forgive you
D Cadd9
I know you got the beating but I caught a feeling
G G/F# Cadd9
Frankly, I don't know what else I can confess to you
D Cadd9
Lovers may quarrel and spar sometimes,
[Chorus]
G G/F# Cadd9 D
but babe, don't tell all our friends about me
G G/F# Cadd9 D
Please, baby, don't tell our friends about me
[Break:]
Gsus G Emsus Em
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
Cadd9 D
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
Gsus G Emsus Em
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
Cadd9 D
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
G G/F# Cadd9 D
but please, baby, don't tell all our friends about me
[Verse]
G G/F# Cadd9 D
You said you just needed some time to adjust
G G/F# Cadd9 D
It's been 48 hours and 3 weeks and 2 months
G G/F# Cadd9
and the hummingbirds hum, the workerbees buzz
D Cadd9
You put too much confidence in the people you trust
D Cadd9
Enemies or friends, they'll all tend to judge
G G/F# Cadd9
and I'll write songs that'll help me deal with issues,
D Cadd9
and sometimes people will hear too much
G G/F# Cadd9 D
But babe, they don't tell all our friends about us
Cadd9 D
No, mostly they'll just start to blush
G G/F# Cadd9 D
Please, baby, don't tell our friends about me
G G/F# Cadd9 D
Please, baby, don't tell our friends about me
[Break:]
Gsus G Emsus Em
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
Cadd9 D
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
Gsus G Emsus Em
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
Cadd9 D
I know I fucked up, I know I fucked up,
G G/F# Cadd9 D
but please, baby, don't tell all our friends about me
