[Verse 1]
Dm I've been bad, but I'm getting better [tab] A Gm Dm I've seen you dancing with another man
And he was holding your hand
A But all dances must rest Gm Dm Nothing lasts forever
[Verse 2]
Dm
Cynthia Anne, so give me chancesI will prove to you that romance
A Gm Dm Is something that doesn't have to make you feel sick
After, feel all cheated over and over
Remember what he did
A Gm Dm I did all that, but now, I'm really better
[Chorus]
A I would like to prove to you Dm A I have no appetite to do the things I did then Gm Dm And won't do again A On my own, I'm all alone Dm I try to make my affections known A They won't stop talking Gm Dm About what I did twenty years ago
[Verse 3]
Dm
That bright kitchen, that old cleaverThe spots of blood, the fallen phone receiver
A Gm Don't you get tired of seeing those pictures? Dm That was me, but now I'm different A Gm Dm I did all that, but now I'm really better
[Chorus]
A I would like to prove to you Dm A I have no appetite to do the things I did then Gm Dm And won't do again A On my own, I'm all alone Dm I try to make my affections known A But the evil's passed Gm Dm From one hand to another

Dm
Cynthia Keller in the cellarDon't tell me you didn't get my letters
A Gm I try to tell you, make you see Dm That after all they did to me A How could I do that? Gm Dm All I can do now is stay at home and watch T.V
[Outro]
A Gm You're all I have, don't make me go Dm Don't throw me away, don't leave me alone A Gm Dm I can't be alone now that I'm all better A Gm Dm I can't be alone now that I'm all better A Gm I'm your slave, just don't make me go alone Dm Now I'm all better A Gm Dm Just don't leave me alone with my being better A Gm Dm Ah, ah
