Unlearn Me

Carol Ades


Tom: Em

             Cmaj7
Remember the sex and
                Cmaj7
The curve of my neck and
                  Cmaj7
My hair when it’s wet and
            Cmaj7
The taste of perfume when
           D          Dsus2  D
I lay on my back yeah (Ah, ah, ah)
           Cmaj7
Forget the crying
           Cmaj7
Forget the wailing
       Cmaj7
Cloudy emotions
           Cmaj7
Clear understanding
        D                                 Dsus4
I was a plane wreck without any landing (At least I used to be)

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
I did a really bad job
C
Tryna be a really good girl
D
And now you know me too well
D
And you’ve seen too much
                   C
How do I trick you now?

[Chorus]
C           D
Do me a favor
D                  Dm
Forget my face and then
Dm
Sooner or later
Fmaj7                   C
I know we’ll meet again
                D
You were the paper
            Dsus4    Dm
And I was a bleeding pen
Dm
I am no mystery
       C
You’ll have to just unlearn me

[Verse 2]
            Cmaj7
Unlearn the noises
            Cmaj7
Unlearn the habits
          Cmaj7
Unsee the way that I look in your jacket
             D                           Dsus4
So we can forget all the parts that were saddest
           Cmaj7
I will get older
         Cmaj7
You will forgive me
              Cmaj7
I’ll get on a plane and
                  C
I’ll come to your city
                D
We’ll go out to dinner
              D
And really be happy
   Dsus4
Or something

Happy or something

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
I did a really bad job
C
Tryna be a really good girl
D
And now you know me too well
D
And you’ve seen too much
                   C
How do I trick you now?

[Chorus]
C           D
Do me a favor
D                  Dm
Forget my face and then
Dm
Sooner or later
Fmaj7                   C
I know we’ll meet again
                D
You were the paper
            Dsus4    Dm
And I was a bleeding pen
Dm
I am no mystery
       C
You’ll have to just unlearn me
       C
You’ll have to just unlearn me


[Breakdown]
Dsus4
Promise to just unlearn me
Dm
I promise no more hurting
Fm7
Promise to just unlearn me
C
Promise, promise, I
Em7     Dsus4
Promise to just unlearn me
Dm
I promise no more hurting
Fmaj7
Promise to just unlearn me
C
Promise, promise, I
         Cm7
Promise, promise, I

[Outro]
             Cmaj7
Remember the sex and
                Cmaj7
The curve of my neck and
                  Cmaj7
My hair when it’s wet and
            Cmaj7
The taste of perfume when
           D  Dsus2  D
I lay on my back
