O.A.R. – Favorite Book Of Poetry (Guitar)

F               C
Called her last night

      G
And I read her a line, from her favorite book of poetry

F               C
And I started to cry

     G
When she asked me what was wrong, I said, "Don't worry, it's not you, it's me"

F             C
 It's fine to say

     G
That everything you've done to me has been excused by you

      F                        C
Now I know that's its plain to see

G
Every line I read to you is coming from deep inside of me

F               C
She called me last night

      G
And read me a line from her favorite book of poetry

F               C
And she started to cry

     G
When I asked her what was wrong, she said, "Don't worry, it's not you, it's me"

F             C
 It's plain to see

G
All these stories told to me are false

F                        C
And I know               Oh

G
She's telling me lies, telling me lies like hte sun is blue

G
sooner or later its come to pass one of these poems will have to last

F         C                           G
Sooner or later, she's gonna have to come to pass

F                 C
This poetry

F                 C
I called her last night

       G
And we finally talked for what seemed like the very first time

F             C
So I start to cry

G
Seem like we don't know each other no more, and these words they

F
Describe you to a T

C
Telling you about me

G
It's writen verse by verse, line by line, just you and me

F            C                          G
  and I just wish I could describe with my pen one day done throughout the time

                        F
In these books of poetry

    C                 G                                                F
It seems like its all written just about, written just about her and me

         C            G
All this love poetry, good and bad

                          F
Written just about you and me
