intro
[C] (vary with Cmaj7sus2) (bass G#-F
-F#)[Fmaj7(no 3rd)]
 
verse
[C] (vary with Cmaj7sus2)(bass G#-F-F#)
What you did to me made me see myself
[Fmaj7(no 3rd)]
something different
Though I try to talk sense to myself
but I just won't listen
 
bridge
[C#] [C7] (C7/G#)Won't you Go away turned yourself in
F/A [F]you're no good at confession
Before the image that you burned me in
tries to teach you a lesson
 
What you did to me made me see myself
somethin' awful
A voice once stentorian is now again
meek and muffled
It took me such a long time to get back
up the first time you did it
I spent all I had to get it back, and
now it seems I've been outbidded
 
chorus
[C][G] [G/B][Am] [C] (bass E-C-F-C, C’s on C-chord)My peace and quiet was stolen from me
[Dm7] When I was looking with calm affection
[Dm7-5/G#]You were searching out my imperfections
[Am] [AmM7/G#] [F] [C] What wasted unconditional love
[Dm7] [Dm7-5/G#]On somebody who doesn't believe in the stuff
 
bridge
You came upon me like a hypnic jerk
when I was just about settled
And when it counts you recoil with a
cryptic word and leave a love belittled
 
chorus
Oh what a cold and common old way to go
I was feeding on the need for you to know me
Devastated at the rate you fell below me
What wasted unconditional love On somebody
Who doesn't believe in the stuff Oh, well
