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