A A D/F# Dm
A A D/F# Dm
[Verse 1]
A
I met a new me at 8 am,
Amaj7
The other one got lost
A7
This was not a trade in,
D
Although I wouldn't believe the cost
Dm
I woke up crying as we said goodbye
A
Me an my old self,
F#m
Each day he vanished more and more
Bm E
As I became someone else
[Verse 2]
A
He actually was murdered
Amaj7
I had taken him apart
A7
But when I put him back together,
D
I couldn't find his heart
Dm
It was resting underneath a chair,
A
In a bed of bright tin foil
F#m
If I pulled back the flaps,
Bm
I could still see it beat
E
I could still hear his voice uncoil, As I said :
[Chorus]
A Amaj7 A7
I want a trade in, a 14th chance at this life
D A
I've met a woman with a thousand faces
F#m Bm E
And I want to make her my wife
[Verse 3]
A
How could I have been so mistaken,
Amaj7
How could I think that it was true
A7
A child that is raised by an idiot,
D
And that idiot then becomes you
A
How could I believe in a movie,
Amaj7
How could I believe in a book
A7
But most of all how could I listen to you,
D
Such an obvious schmuck
Dm
A life spent listening to a**holes,
A
It's funny but it's true
F#m
So get rid of them I said to myself
Bm E
But first I'm getting rid of you
[Chorus]
A Amaj7 A7
I want a trade in, a 14th chance at this life
D
I've met a woman with a thousand faces
A F#m Bm E
And I want to make her my wife
[Verse 4]
A
Take me over to the window,
Amaj7
my heart said to my head
A7
Please set me on fire,
D
so we can start again
Dm
I was so wrong that it's funny,
A
and I can't apologize
F#m Bm E
But instead you can be everything that I'm not, the second that I die
[Chorus]
E A Amaj7 A7
Ooohhh, I want a trade in, the second chance at this life
D
I've met a woman with a thousand faces
A F#m Bm E
And I want to make her my wife
[Outro]
A A D/F# Dm
Ha!
A A D/F# Dm
A 14th chance at this life, I want a trade in ...
A A D/F# Dm
... I said ... uuuhhh, 14th, 14th chance at this life
A A D/F# Dm
