[Verse 1]
C#m B E
I'm trapped in a hospital room
C#m B E
That hospital room is inside my head
C#m B E
Doctors are tryin' to mend the stitches on my broken heart
C#m B E
Lord, get me out of this goddamn bed
[Verse 2]
C#m B E
I fell in love with a woman
C#m B E
Sweetest girl I've ever seen
C#m B E
I tried to show her the better side of myself
C#m B E
Give her the best part of me
[Pre-Chorus]
A B
This one thing can give me back my freedom
A B
I just wanna hear you say my name
[Chorus]
A
It was short-lived love
E B
Runnin' down a highway, hittin' all the back roads
C#m B A
Hopin' that the rain came down on a Sunday
E B
Stay a little longer, I don't wanna wondеr
C#m B A
If I'm gonna see you next weekend
B
Now your memory's all I got
C#m B E
It was short-livеd love
[Verse 3]
C#m B E
I've tried everything to forget about you
C#m B E
Mixed more gin with tonic than an average man should
C#m B E
Powdered my brain with the harshest of chemicals
C#m B E
Tried to disappear for the greater good
[Verse 4]
C#m B E
There's something 'bout the way I look at you
C#m B E
There's something 'bout the way you look at me
C#m B E
I can't seem to recreate that with another woman
C#m B E
That's enough to tell me I ain't ready to set you free
[Chorus]
A
It was short-lived love
E B
Runnin' down a highway, hittin' all the back roads
C#m B A
Hopin' that the rain came down on a Sunday
E B
Stay a little longer, I don't wanna wonder
C#m B A
If I'm gonna see you next weekend
B
Now your memory's all I got
A B
Now your memory's all I got
A
It was short-lived love
