[Verse 1]
E B
I wanted to write you a song that would rightly express in three minutes or less
How elated that you leave me, after you have come to see me
B7 E
That the whole world ought to know my happiness
E7 A Am
Alas, when I find a moment to write and think of the perfect lines
E C#m
You call to say you're never coming back
Am B7 E
And then I have to start over from scratch
[Verse 2]
E
I wander the streets of this town
B
Tying knots in my brow, thinking my thoughts out loud
If words were as specific as my heart is prolific
B7 E
Then you would have had one hundred songs by now
E7 A Am
But, oh, happy day, that I didn't say it or put it to song, anyway
E C#m
I started out this tune from meeting you
Am B E
And then I ended up singing the blues
[Chorus]
B Am
I was born to sing sad songs
E G#
That go on for more than three minutes long
C#m G#m7 Am
And I feel another coming on
E
Now that you're gone
B Am
I was born to sing sad songs
E G#
That go on for more than three minutes long
C#m
I'd be pleasantly surprised
F# B7 B
If for once I could write a happy love song that didn't make people cry
E E E E
[Bridge]
E
I could have played it
G#
Over and over
A Am
Unsettling the dust on the shelves forever
E G#
You'd hear it late at night
A B
Playing in my heart
E G#
Now your ears are close like flowers
A Am
I spend all of my waking hours
E G#
Singing this song instead
A B
Like so many times before
[Chorus]
B Am
I was born to sing sad songs
E G#
That go on for more than three minutes long
C#m G#m7 Am
And I feel another coming on
E
Now that you're gone
B Am
I was born to sing sad songs
E G#
That go on for more than three minutes long
C#m
I'd be pleasantly surprised
F# B7 B
If for once I could write a happy love song that didn't make people cry
[Outro]
E
I could have played it
G#
Over and over
A Am
Unsettling the dust on the shelves forever
E G#
You'd hear it late at night
A Am E
Playing in my heart
