Intro (or some variation on this)
C G F

C F G Gsus G Gsus
C Em F G
I can't pretend that all is well, it's like I'm haunted by a ghost
C Em F G
There are times I cannot speak your name for the catchin' in my throat,
C Em F G
There are things I will not sing for the sting of sour notes.
C Em F G
I feel like a miser, I feel low and mean
C Em F G
For accusing you of stealin' what I offered you for free.
C Em F G
Still it beggars the belief sometimes what thieves we lovers be.
C Em F G
I don't know who you're with these days, might be with someone new
C Em F G
And if you are, I hope he treats you like a lover ought to do.
C Em F G
But whoever makes you happy, it don't really matter who
C Em F G
I've got a new lover now, I hope you've got a lover too.
C Em F G
Praise the water under bridges, the time they say will heal
C Em F G
Praise the fonder, that still grows on the absent heart in fields
C Em F G
Praise be to this pain these days it's all I seem to feel.
C Em F G
Perhaps the fault was mine
C Em F G
Perhaps I just ignored who you're always gonna be,
C Em F G
Instead of who I took you for.
C Em F G
I've been treated worse it's true, still I expected more.
C Em F G
But I will not chase your shadow as you go from room to room,
C Em F G
Droppin' handkerchiefs and daggers, smokin' guns and other clues
C Em F G
For what someone did with someone and who did what to who.
C Em F G
I've got a new lover now, I hope you've got a lover too.
C Em F G
I got a new lover now, I know that she's not mine,
C Em F G
And I only want to hold her, I don't need to read her mind,
C Em F G
And she only looks like you when she's in a certain light.
C Em F G
I got a new lover now, she knows just what I need.
C Em F G
When I wake up in the night, she can read me back my dreams,
C Em F G
And she loves them, though she never needs to tell me what they mean.
C Em F G
I hope you've got a lover now, hope you've got somebody who
C Em F G
Can give you what you need like I couldn't seem to do.
C Em F G
But if you're sad and you are lonesome and you've got nobody true,
C Em F G
I'd be lying if I said that didn't make me happy too.
C Em F G
I'd be lying if I said that didn't make me happy too.
