Chords

[Verse 1]
    G   Em    D
Was any of it true?

G     Em   D
Gazing at me starry-eyed

         G        Em     D
In your Jehovah's Witness suit

G        Em      D
Who the fuck was that guy?

    G         Em      D
You tried to buy some pills

G       Em       D
From a friend of friends of mine

G        Em     D
They just ghosted you

    G        Em      D
Now you know what it feels like
[Chorus]
C                Em                    G
And I don't even want you back, I just want to know

C             Em                        G
If rusting my sparkling summer was the goal

C                Em                     G
And I don't miss what we had, but could someone give

C                Em               G
A message to the smallest man who ever lived?
[Verse 2]
G           Em      D
You hung me on your wall

G          Em        D
Stabbed me with your push pins

G          Em        D
In public, showed me off

     G       Em      D
Then sank in stoned oblivion

       C          Em        D
'Cause once your queen had come

    G         Em      D
You treat her like an also-ran

     C     G       D
You didn't measure up

    C  G       D
In any measure of a man
[Chorus]
C                Em                    G
And I don't even want you back, I just want to know

C             Em                        G
If rusting my sparkling summer was the goal

C                Em                     G
And I don't miss what we had, but could someone give

C                Em               G
A message to the smallest man who ever lived?
[Bridge]
                 G                      Em
Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?

                     D                   C
Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?

                   G                             Em
Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy?

                      D                     C
In fifty years, will all this be declassified?

                            G
And you'll confess why you did it

                 Em
And I'll say, "Good riddance"

                  D                     C
'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden

                          G
I would've died for your sins

                      Em
Instead, I just died inside

                 D                         C
And you deserve prison, but you won't get time

                 G                             Em
You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars

                D                    C
You crashed my party and your rental car

                           G
You said normal girls were boring

                         Em
But you were gone by the morning

                    D
You kicked out the stage lights

                   C
But you're still performing

                       G
And in plain sight you hid

                      Em
But you are what you did

                D                       C
And I'll forget you, but I'll never forgive

                          G*
The smallest man who ever lived
