_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ In the morning, we trash the [Dm] bed,
Bring the coffee like I'm [Gm] boiling,
[F] _ _ _
_ Then we start up again, [Am] and the coffee goes cold. _ _ _ _
Wake up drinking from your lips,
[Dm] _ _
Kisses warm and tender,
[F] _ _ _
_ And I gave up the world, [Am] _
just to see you smile.
One thing I [G] will never [F] understand,
_ [Am] It's become [G] my problem,
[D] _ _ _ [Am] And it's something that's [G] right [F] out of my hand.
My [D] hands are clean,
_ _ [F#] [G] What makes such a sweet [A] guy turn so mean?
[Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I was a child with a moody [Dm] man,
_ A handsome Dr.
Jekyll,
[F] _ _ _ _ He was right by my [A] side,
Turning into Mr.
[Am] _ Hyde.
I ran for cover, but I ran too slow,
[Dm] I watched it by strangers,
[F] _ _ And they shook their heads,
Somebody [Am] could do the things you did.
One thing I will [G] never _ [F]
understand,
[Am] It's become [G] my [D] problem, _
_ [Am] And it's something [G] that's right [F] out of my hand.
[D] My hands are clean, _ _
[Gm] What makes such a [G] sweet guy [A] turn so mean?
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
I _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ must be mad, I [G] must be crazy,
_ _ [F] Everyone tells [Am] me so,
_ _ [C] _ _ All of my life, I've [G] seen it coming.
[F] Now I'm facing the wall, [D] waiting for that blow.
[Am] _
In the morning, you kissed my head,
You said [A] with somebody else, you weren't feeling [F] yourself.
Now you're down on your knees,
Begging me, baby, baby, baby, [A] baby,
Forgiveness, [Am]
please.
I wake up aching from your [Dm] touch,
I wake up so tender.
_ [F] _
Yet I look in your eyes, the way [Am] they smile,
I'm _ hypnotized.
One thing I will [G] never _ [F] understand,
[Am] It's become my [G] problem,
[D] _ _ _ [Am] And it's something [G] that's right out of [F] my hand.
My [D] hands are clean,
_ _ [A] What makes such a [G] sweet guy [Am] turn so mean? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I want to know, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
What turns so mean? _ _ _ _
I _ _ _ _ _ _ want to know,
_ What makes you turn so mean? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Must be your daddy,
_ _ _ Your sweet old daddy. _ _ _ _
