[Verse 1]
G
Exes,
Gadd11                   G
I’ve got no access to my exes,
Gadd11                           G
I’m sure by now they’ve moved to Texas,
Gadd11                    Am  Asus2
Or took a one way trip to Naxos.
 
 
[Verse 2]
     G
Hmm, exes,
Gadd11                      G
I’ve lost the battle of the sexes,
Gadd11                     G
Like making love inside of taxis,
Gadd11                           Am  Asus2
They liked the sting but not the cactus.
 
 
[Bridge 1]
G                  Gadd11   G
I know that exes reflect my youth,
G           G    Gadd11       G
I know that exes, are my male proof,
G              G     Gadd11         G
I know they’re guilty, of being the past,
Em                    D/F#
But you’ve killed the cupid,
       Gadd11     Gadd11
You’re over them.
 
 
[Verse 3]
     G
Aah, exes,
Gadd11                      G
I’ve got no problem with my exes,
Gadd11                      G
They loved me driving in my Lexus,
Gadd11                      Am  Asus2
A road’s as good as all its exits.
 
 
[Verse 4]
     G
Aah, exes,
Gadd11                      G
So out of date like sending faxes,
Gadd11                       G
I was the tree they were the axes,
Gadd11                         Am
They liked to pray but not the mantis. Aah.
 
 
[Outro]
        Em         D         C         G
I’m the cynical collector of birds not bees,
    Em        D          C       G
The problem detector got high on heels,
    Em        D           C    G
The beauty protector with no degrees,
G
For exes,
         G                D/F#
Which is good which is constructive,
                C     G
Which is what a woman needs,
         G             D/F#
Don’t go asking for forgiveness
         C            G
Go plead guilty all degrees
         G             D/F#
You were raised on definitions
          C               G
With your dears obscuring deeds
     G
Your actions
G    D/F# C    G
Aah, aah, aah, aah,
G    D/F# C    G
Aah, aah, aah, aah,
G    D/F# C    G
Aah, aah, aah, aah,
G    D/F# C    G
Aah,
