C           G
I was tired of
     Am             F
You telling me your leaving
       C       G      Am     G F
Every time it came to blows
C           G
Is it not enough
    Am              F
To say it when you mean it
          C         G       Am   G F     
And then pack your bags and go
G          Am         F  C
And it was hard to be jealous
G        Am          F          C          G
I was supposed to be having the time of my life
            C  F
But now let me say
                              Am  G
I would rather had you been vaporized
                         C   F
By a lunar reflection in the sky
                              Am G
Than to be beguiled by one so banal

I just never dreamed it could come to that, well
C
Darlin' I'm not angry
            G
I'm just a little bit confused
               Am
Well she just chokes the jokes and the quotes of others
           F
Though her eyes know not their truths
    C
But still yet as you lie there
         G              
May she find you in her arms
     Am
As a guiltless soul and a burning coal
             F
That is both hard to hold and to put down
           C               
That's the way I held you
         G                    Am    F
Though I never will again
                  C                 
Yours faithfully, friend
         F       C
Oooh ooh oooooh ooh (repeats)
