if i thought it would help i would drive this car into the sea

                          G                          Am
if the fire and smoke and explosions could speak for me

       C                    G                  Am                     F

C                     G                 C

C                   G                           C
how many days did I spend trying to see it your way, if you try you remember

How I changed and changed and kept on saying "one of these days something inside's gonna break"

                              G     C
and we won't get it back now, baby
[Chorus]

time after time there were things that would scare me to tears, while you called me haunted

C                  G             C
i paced around the bed where you laid

                         C          G
one of these days, baby, something...
[Chorus]
