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