[C] [G]
[F] Lover, now [Gm] that [E] you've left me I'm [A] glad [Dm] you're unlovely
Cause if you [Bb] could take all the heat in [F] your heart and just hang it [C] from you
[G]
[C] [C]
[F] I wouldn't be able [Am] to bear the [A] way you cannot [Dm] love me
It's much easier [Bb] of me to make [C] a monster [D] out [F] of you
So here I go,
[Am] substituting the glow from [Dm] your temples
[Bb] All our [Dm] sighs [Bb] and our trembles
[F] And each last letter [C] sent you
[C] From [A]
[F] the cheap little pen of [Am] this weak little man
The [Dm] one singing [Bb] out his [Dm]
[Bb] jangling, ringing, and hopefully [C] stinging attack [F] upon you
Yeah, so here I go, just [Am] exploding the hope [Dm] we'll be speaking
Someday years [Bb] from now, seeking
[F] friendship and
[C] understanding
[Dm]
[C] [G] Yeah, [F] I hope you get angry [Am] and hurt and have the hardest [Dm] of landings
And I hope your [Bb] new man thinks of me when [C] he sees what a number I [F] did on [C] you

I grow tired of this song, I turn [Am] my eyes to the blonde in [Dm] the bleacher
[A]
[Dm] She's a lovely
[Bb] young creature
[F] I think she's seeking
[C] adventure
I think she's [F] ready to see that the [Am] world ain't so sweet nor [Dm] so tender
[D]
[Dm] I won't break her, [Bb] just bend her and make her [C] into my new leader [F] for you
I stay in the same comfy town, [Am] write the same old songs down, [Dm] drive the same streets
[Bb] Seek the same sense of dull
[F] peace, the same sweet words [C] to the chippies
The same walk by the road where the [Am] same [A] muddy snow's finally [Dm] leaving
[D] [Dm]
I'll fight off [Bb] the spring, I don't want lovely [C]
things, I don't [C] want the [F] earth for you
