Intro
G Em Am C G
[Verse]
G
Baby I'm sorry to call you so late,
Em
Oh I forget I can't call you that name.
Am C
Still make those slips all of the time,
G
Don't know when I'll get better.
G
I think to the night that you handed me back,
Em
Records we shared and the life that we had.
Am C
You said in that condescending tone,
G
I'll never forget you.
[Chorus]
D C
She's in your jeans,
G
But I don't care.
D C
You were my dream.
G
Now my nightmare.
[Verse]
G
At your sisters' wedding I gave all that I had,
Em
Your father was cold and your mother was sad.
Am C
I thought to myself they were like you and I,
G
When we last met.
G
My love is a nail I can't pull out with plyers,
Em
The lovers I've had have been gaslighting liars.
Am C
Don't know what that says about me,
G
But I just give in.
I mean it now it's making me ill.
[Chorus]
D C
She's in your jeans,
G
But I don't care.
D C
You were my dream.
G
Now my nightmare.
[Bridge]
Am C G
So call me when, you break up.
Am
As you always do,
C G
I can't promise I will pick up,
n.c.
I'm done with you.
[Chorus]
D C
She's in your jeans,
G
But I don't care.
D C
You were my dream.
G
Now my nightmare.
