Horrifying as it was for [Dm] me to see your face [F] today
[C] I guess I knew that it would [Bb] happen [F] at some point
[G] And I dreaded it because [C] I [Dm] knew that you would be so [F] kind
[C] You're good at that, you've got it right down [F] to a science
[G] So you observe the strict rules [D] laid out in the books of [F] etiquette
And tell me you hope I [C] enjoy my stay
[G] And I feel numb and I can't believe
That [D] I was stupid enough to leave my [F] bed today
If I'm so smart then [C] why is this happening?
[D]
[G] You know I hate this fucking town
You cannot even leave your fucking house
Now I'm [C] running into someone who no longer [G] cares about you
Somebody whom you desperately want to see
But you know it's only going to cause more grief
[C] There is nothing left to say
[F] He can't hear you anyway
[D]
[G] [C]
[Dm] [F] [C]
[Bb] [F]
It's [G] so confusing [C] cause I really [Dm] want to hate you
[F] But my intellect [C] reminds me [Bb] that that doesn't make [F] no sense
[G] And I wanted to be [C] your friend
[Dm] But I couldn't pull it off [F] in the end
[C] And I'm disappointed [Bb] with myself cause I [F] thought I could run
[G] But then again you always made it clear
That [D] you do not care either way
Which [F] begs the question
How can I still [C] claim to love you?
You [G] told me time and time again
That you [D] don't lose, you always win
And [F] that to make an effort would just [C] be beneath you
[D]
[G] You know I hate this fucking town
You cannot even leave your fucking house
Now I'm [C] running into someone who no longer [G] cares about you
Somebody whom you desperately want to see
But you know it's only going to cause more grief
[C] There is nothing left to say
He [F] can't hear you anyway
