[Verse 1]
    Am7/G   Am
The wind is ruthless,
                Am/E  Fmaj7              Am7/G
The trees shake angry fingers at the sky,
    Am
The people hunch their shoulders,
Am/E       Fmaj7
Hold their collars over their ears and run by,
Am7/G  Am
It's a cold rain, it's a hard rain,
Am/E     Fmaj7
Like the kind that you find in songs,
  Am7/G      Am
I guess that makes me the jerk with the heartache,
Am/E    Fmaj7
Here to sing you about how I've been done wrong.

[Verse 2]
    Am7/G  Am
And I am   sitting, watching,
Am/E    Fmaj7
Out the window of the coffee shop,
Am7/G    Am               Am/E
And I am waiting, waiting,
Fmaj7
Waiting for it to let up,
Am7/G  Am
I am   rocking like a cradle,
Am/E       Fmaj7
Warming my hands with the cup in between,
Am7/G  Am
I am  leaning over the table,
Am/E       Fmaj7
Holding my face over the steam.


[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7
And before it gets so cold,
Fmaj7
That the rain turns to snow,
Fmaj7
There's just a couple things,
Fmaj7
I'd like to know.


[Chorus]
     Dm        F      Am
Like how could you do nothing,
             C
And say, I'm doing my best,
Dm            F                Am
How could you take almost everything,
              C
And then come back for the rest,
Dm            F         Am
How could you beg me to stay,
               C
Reach out your hands and plead,
Dm                    F              Am
And then pack up your eyes and run away,
           Bm    Am7/G  Am
As soon as I agreed.


[Interlude]
Am Am/E  Fmaj7 Am7/G  Am
   Aaaaaaaah,  aaah,  aaah,
Am Am/E   Fmaj7
   Aaaah, aaaah


[Verse 3]
   Am7/G    Am
It just all slips away so slowly,
Am/E           Fmaj7
You don't even notice till you've lost a lot,
          Am7/G            Am
I've been like one of those zombies in Vegas,
Am/E    Fmaj7
Pouring quarters into a slot,
Am7/G       Am
And now I'm tired and I am broke,
Am/E       Fmaj7
And I feel stupid and I feel used,
    Am7/G      Am
And I'm at the end of my little rope,
    Am/E  Fmaj7
And I am  swinging back and forth about you.


[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7
And before it gets so cold,
Fmaj7
That the rain turns to snow,
Fmaj7
There's just a couple things,
Fmaj7
I'd like to know.


[Chorus]
     Dm        F      Am
Like how could you do nothing,
             C
And say, I'm doing my best,
Dm            F                Am
How could you take almost everything,
              C
And then come back for the rest,
Dm            F         Am
How could you beg me to stay,
               C
Reach out your hands and plead,
Dm                    F              Am
And then pack up your eyes and run away,
           Bm    Am7/G  Am
As soon as I agreed.

[Verse 4]
Am
The wind is ruthless,
          Am/E  Fmaj7                    Am7/G
The trees shake angry fingers at the sky,
    Am

Am/E  Fmaj7   Am7/G  Am
        I,    done   wrong,
Am/E  Fmaj7   Am7/G  Am
        I,    done   wrong,
              Am/E  Fmaj7   Am7/G  Am
How could you do    nothing like   that? (done wrong),
                   Am/E   Fmaj7
How could you take almost everything?
              Am7/G   Am
Come back for the     rest all,
                   Am/E  Fmaj7
How could you make me    sick?
    Am7/G  Am
How done   wrong,
                               Am/E  Fmaj7
And then pack up your eyes and run  away,
          Am7/G  Am
Ooh liar, done   wrong,
                   Am/E  Fmaj7
How could you? How could you?
               Am7/G  Am
How could you do      nothing?
              Am/E  Fmaj7
How could you do   nothing?
           Am7/G  Am
How?  why? Done   wrong.
