My Maudlin Career Tabbed by: Adam James www.myspace.com/jinglejewce INTRO D | Em | D | C (x4) VERSE
D              Em
I'm going on a date tonight

D                C                D
  To try to fall out of love with you

                 Em 
I know, I know this is a crime

D                  C            D
  But I don't know what else to do
D | Em | D | C My love, you're in a magazine My love, you're doing fine, you're on TV You pull my heart out and then you run away From Chicago to Cleveland you leave me pain
Em             D     C
  You leave me pain
CHORUS
D                            Em
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing

D                  C                  D
  I would trade my mother to hear you sing

                             Em
When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing

D                  C
  I would trade my mother
VERSE On the bus radio, "Fifty ways to leave your lover alone" I laughed at the irony But life is stupid, the irony all lost on me It got lost on me (CHORUS) INSTRUMENTAL D | Em | D | C (x2) D | C | D | Em | Em VERSE You challenged me to write a love song Here it is, I think I got it wrong I focused on the negative The pain was too much to write and sing Oh, it was not a nice incentive CHORUS When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing I would trade my mother to hear you sing (X3) When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing I would trade my mother
    D         Em
But she don't know 

     D           C
Just how far I'd go

        D                  Em
Would I walk for a hundred miles 

      D                        C
for a glimpse of your northern smile?
