[Verse 1]
D# G#
My old lover calls early in the morning
Gm Cm
Looking for another place to hide
G# Bb
Her new friends are already boring
Gm Cm
She is sitting on the pavement outside
Fm G#
She only comes to see me when she's had too much to drink
Gm Cm D# F7
Only says she loves me when she's too drunk to think
[Chorus]
G# Bb
Ain't it poetic, yeah, and ain't we grand?
D# D G Cm
I open the door with a drink in my hand
Cm G#
Good to see you again
Gm
Why can't we be friends?
[Verse 2]
D# G#
I know she has some trouble being truthful
Gm Cm
We keep the conversation light and easy
G# Bb
She smiles when I tell she looks beautiful
Gm Cm
She smiles but I can tell she doesn't believe me
Fm G#
She is some kind of genius, everybody agrees
Gm D# Cm D# F7
She looks towards the bedroom and then looks back to me
[Chorus]
G# Bb
Ain't it poetic, yeah, and ain't we grand?
D# D G Cm
I open the door with a drink in my hand
G# Gm Bb
Tell me a story, go on sing me a song
D# D Cm
Give me something to dream to, after you've gone
[Post-Chorus]
G#
Baby, can't you see?
Gm Gm Fm G# F7
You are no good for me
G# Bb Fm Bb
Ooooooooooh
[Outro]
D# Fm
Who knows what we'll be
Gm Cm D# F7
When we wake from our dreams
Fm Bb
When we wake from our dreams
D# G# Bb D#
We'll see
