What's wrong ^Cmaj7baby, don't they^Fmaj7b5 treat you like they should? Did you take 'em^Cmaj7 for it? Every^Fmaj7b5 penny that you could? We once w^Amalked out on the beach, And once I a^Flmost touched your hand. Oh how I d^Creamed to finally say such things then ^Gsusonly to pretend.

Verse 2: Don't you know I'm thinkin', drivin' 405 past midnight. You know I miss you. Ninth and Ash on a Tuesday night. I would write to you from a museum mile, Toast to you: your whisper, your smile. Up the stairs at the Weatherford, a ghost each place I hide. Chorus:

If you d^Fon't don't know, why'd you s^Gay so? Would you m^Emean this please if it h^Fappens? If you d^Fon't know, why would you s^Gay so? Won't you ^Emget your story s^Ftraight. If you d^Fon't know, honey, why'd you j^Gust say so? 'Cause I n^Emeed this now more than I e^Fver did. If you d^Fon't well, honey, then y^Gou don't.

Verse 3: I left you waiting, at the least could we be friends? Should have never started, ain't that the way it always ends? On my life I'll try today, There's so much I've felt I should say, but Even if your heart would listen, doubt I could explain. Chorus Instrumental (Verse) Verse 4: So here we are now, a sip of wine, a sip of water. Someday maybe, maybe someday we'll be smarter. And I'm sorry that I'm such a mess, I drank all my money could get and, Took everything you let me have, and then I never loved you back.
