Gin Blossoms

I could ^D fall asleep for ^G you, my girl
But it's ^C not enough
For the ^D scenes of your last ^G visit
Lie ^C buried in the dust
If I don't ^D fall in love with ^G you, my girl
Please ^C understand
I'll go ^D find another ^G county
And ^C leave it in the end
I've seen ^G forty-seven ^D pictures
All with ^C you upon the ^D face
From the ^Em noise I'm making ^D running
Is a ^C secondary ^D pace
From the ^G scenes of your last ^D visit
I still ^C feel it where we ^D touch
Where ^Em you cost ^D me too ^G much ^{C G}
Oh, the time I spent with you, my girl
Was all in vain
Waiting out the rapids
You can't escape the pain
And if I fall in love with you, my girl
It'll never end
And the sky will likely open
Raining holocaust and zen
At the west side of the forest
On a highway in the sun
Stands a pointless individual
Who knows his time has come
Though I know it's nothing funny
I'm still howling like a lush
'Cause you cost me too much
^D It's the same in ^G here
^D Nothing's changed yet, my ^G dear
Oh, if ^Em I had known to know you well
^D7 Lock us up in a sinner's hell for ^G days ^{C G C G}
If I don't fall in love with you, my girl
Please understand
I'll go find another city
And leave it in the end
And if I run away with you, my girl
Please try to see
I'll do all I can to please you
But I don't expect you'll be
On the highest roof around me
Where I'm feeling pretty dumb
I scan on the horizon
For other dumbshits as they come
I'm growing older faster
Still howling like a lush
'Cause ^Em you cost ^D me
^Em You cost ^D me
^Em You cost ^D me too ^G much ^{C G}
