Canopies And Grapes Chords

(ver. 1)
Emmy The Great
Capo on Fret 4

The song is based around the chords, Em, G and D,  with a Cmaj7 thrown in at the end of 
I have put the chords above the words for the whole song as it can be tricky to know 
where the changes are.

Em               G          D
         I wanna see you tonight
            Em
What's the point?
       G     D
All we do is fight
           Em
I've loved you
        G
So long
D               Em       G       D
I donno who I'd be without

           Em
My head hurts
          G           D
I wish I'd never woke up
           Em
I feel worse
                 G       D
than when S Club 7 broke up
             Em
I hate the day

It hates me
        G       D      Em        G       D
So does everybody else
            Em                 G           D
I sit here drooling on my own again
           Em                 G            D
and like a routine episode of Friends
              Em              G            D
What does it mean to be American?
       Cmaj7

feelings,     coffee and

I'll be there for you?

There is this book he lent to me something like seven months ago
          Em                               G           D
