Soul Asylum – Bittersweetheart (Guitar)

A
Why you always want to get the best of me

           D
I'm like a seeing-eye dog and I can't even see

        E
They're naked and they're following my master who is blind

       A
And my mind's gone to pieces, I could use some piece of mind

     A
So I picked up the pieces and I made a new start

D
Stole an old stiletto, started stabbing in the dark

  E
I can't live without it, I would surely fall apart

         A
But it's hard to make arrangements 'round a bittersweetheart

      D          E

F#m                  D
Better get yourself a little street smart

D                 E
Bittersweetheart, sad but true

       F#m                       D                  E
It's a bittersweetheart that's a hard heart to cure

                        A
It's just my bittersweetheart

           D    A/C# Bm

Bittersweetheart

            A
It's like a suicide mission when you can't see no end

         D
Tired of compliment-fishing and impressing your friends

  E
I never kissed no one just to kiss and tell

       A
It's a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of hell

       A
In the eye of the beholder is a beautiful start

        D
But you always seem to end up with a bittersweetheart

          E
There's a darkness looming but the sun is shining bright

      A
I can live to see the morning if I stay up all night

      D         E
Bittersweetheart

F#m               D
Without a shortcut without a head-start

D                E

              A
My bittersweetheart

         D  A/C# Bm
It's the hardest part

D                E
Are you in there are you beating

A               D
Beating me up until I'm bleeding

         Bm            G    E
How much blood can you spare

D               E
Bittersweetheart bittersweetheart

F#m                      D
Think just a drink might get you to the good part

                    E
Lyin' in bed just a'wonderin' what to do,

       F#m                       D                  E A
It's a bittersweetheart that'a a hard heart to cure
