[Gbm]
[D]
It was cold, [Bb] but she didn't get warm [Gm] by the subject matter, my [D] boy.
This next room, you've been having trouble, [Dm] you know.
[Bb] Please don't tell her or anyone, [F] but I need to talk to [Gm]
somebody.
[D] You said, wouldn't you be ashamed if I knew how great I was?
[Bb] Five minutes before I died, [G] I'd be through with such regret.
[D] Before I took my own life, I'd be so happy.
I took my last breath and I said, if you're willing to tell me this now,
[Bb] I'm not going to die [G] anytime soon.
And I [D] said, I haven't been eating chicken or meat or anything.
You said, yes, [Bb] but you've been wearing [G] leather.
[D] And I said, we're the top of the food chain.
Yes, you're still a fine [Bb] woman.
[G] I'm really liking this.
[D] I was hoping, [G] I was hoping we could heal each other.
[D] I was hoping, I was [G] hoping we could be together.
[D]
You left the restaurant with a head waiter and a six.
You said, [Bb] goodbye, sir.
Thank you for your [D] business, sir.
You're successful and it's not much, sir.
I like the frequency with which you dine, sir.
And [Bb] you're my [Gm] man.
[D] When I walked by, they said, thank you too, dear.
I was all [Bb] big tails and floors.
And there [G] was a day when I said something [D] like, hey, dude, I could buy and sell this place.
[Bb] You said, I too once thought [G] I was worth something.
[D] I was hoping, I [G] was hoping we could challenge each other.
[D] I was hoping, I [G] was hoping we could take each other out.
[D] You thought that one proved wrong and lost somehow.
And I too once thought life was cruel.
And it's a cycle, really.
You think I'm strong and you're tripping.
[Bb] You're insensitive and [G] I don't feel hurt.
[D] Mentally, just [Bb] mentally, fundamentally.
And you [D] said, yes.
I said, I don't believe in revenge.
And you're [Bb] right or wrong.
Goodbye, sir.
[G] What about that night I saw Hank [D] locked in the emergency room?
Pitting after pitting against the head and she threw [Bb] a shoe at his head.
And I think [G] what he did was wrong.
[D] And I woke up had a heart-turned fury.
Compassion for him in my head.
[Bb] Watched my tone for [G] fear of having you feel [D] judged.
I was hoping, I [G] was hoping we could dance together.
[D] I was hoping, I [G] was hoping we could be free together.
[D]
