Chords

An asterisk* beside a note means you strum one singular time [Verse 1]
A                 Dmaj9/B
When I was just a boy

Dmaj9
We'll call it fifteen or so

A              Dmaj9/B
I found myself annoyed

Dmaj9
By a syndrome of sorts in my bones

A                       Dmaj9/B
That girl who's next to me ("Wait, next to- like, right next to-? Oh, God")

Dmaj9
She found herself bored to tears

A                          Dmaj9/B
She realized if she wanted conversation

Dmaj9*                             Dmaj9
She's out of luck for three more years
[Instrumental] A Dmaj9/B Dmaj9 x2 Dmaj9 [Verse 2]
A                  Dmaj9/B
When I moved away from home

Dmaj9
One hundred miles or so

A                  Dmaj9/B
I knew a change had grown

Dmaj9
Inside my awkwardly long limbs and bones

A                    Dmaj9/B
That girl who's next to me

Dmaj9
She's friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty

A                  Dmaj9/B
But all she has to say

Dmaj9*                               Dmaj9*
Is a meathead-themed monologue on why Brad ran away
[Chorus]
           A                          Dmaj9/B
She said, "All I can hope for is for me to get better

Dmaj9
'Cause all I can take is no more

A                         Dmaj9/B
I'll win him back again, we'll be lovers, best friends

Dmaj9
He won't need no other woman

                                          A Dmaj9/B Dmaj9
Like he did way back when he was with me

A                   Dmaj9/B
He needed more than me

Dmaj9
I'm friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty

A*             Dmaj9/B*     Dmaj9*
But he needed more than me"
[Bridge]
        A*             Dmaj9/B*
When I felt that I should leave

Dmaj9*
We'll call it midnight or so

A*               Dmaj9/B*
I found myself annoyed

Dmaj9*
By a syndrome of sorts in her bones

A                       Dmaj9/B
That girl who's next to me

Dmaj9
She don't know her worth in this town

A                                         Dmaj9/B
'Cause her face starts to shine when that meathead behind me

Dmaj9
Is grinning as he's checking her out ("Oh, come on!")
[Chorus]
         A                                  Dmaj9/B
I said, "All I can hope for is for you to get better

Dmaj9
'Cause all I can take is no more

        A
So I'll hide where I can

            Dmaj9/B
Away from you and your friends

Dmaj9
Leaking tears over beers once again"

        A         Dmaj9/B           Dmaj9
Leaking tears over beers once again

               A*           Dmaj9/B*         Dmaj9*
You're leaking tears over beers once again
