C Em
Don't wanna be the bottle that keeps a ship from sea,
F C G
don't wanna be a cage that keeps a bird from being free.
C Em
Don't wanna keep a singer from a melody,
F C G
yeah, baby, that was you and me.
[Chorus]
F G C C
I wish I was heartless and kept you as mine,
F G C C
I wish it were my hands that held you at night.
F G Am C/E F
But all of the love that you wanted for us you found it in someone new,
F G C C
so, I'm not happy, but I'm happy for you.

C Em
Just look at that smile, it's one I've never seen,
F C G
