[Verse 1]
C C/G# F7 F
What you did to me made me see myself something different
C C/G# F7 F
Though I try to talk sense to myself but I just won't listen
Fm/C# C (C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
Won't you go away, turned yourself in, you're no good at confession
Fm/C# C Cmaj7 F/A F
Before the image that you burned me in tries to teach you a lesson
[Verse 2]
C C/G# F7 F
What you did to me made me see myself somethin' awful
C C/G# F7 F
A voice once stentorian is now again meek and muffled
Fm/C# C (C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
It took me such a long time to get back up the first time you did it
Fm/C# C (C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I've been outbidded
[Chorus]
C G Am
My peace and quiet was stolen from me
Dm7
When I was looking with calm affection
Ab
You were searching out my imperfections
Am Am F C
What wasted unconditional love
Dm7 Ab
On somebody who doesn't believe in the stuff
[Interlude]
C C/G# F7 F
C C/G# F7 F
[Bridge]
Fm/C# C (or C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
You came upon me like a hypnic jerk when I was just about settled
Fm/C# C Cmaj7 F/A F
And when it counts you recoil with a cryptic word and leave a love belittled
C Em/G G Am
Ohhhhh what a cooooooold and common old way to go
Dm7
I was feeding on the need for you to know me
Ab
Devastated at the rate you fell below meee
Am Am F C
What wasted unconditional love
Dm7 Ab
On somebody who doesn't believe in the stuff
C
Oh, well
[Outro]
