Every night I saw you there

In your old wicker chair

Singing, ooh

C
You were wrong, I was right

Csus4                     C        Csus4
Didn't matter in a fight, ooh

C
Coffee mug filled it up

Csus4
Always knew what it was

C         Csus4
Sing, ooh

C
Been on your side for years

Csus4                               C     Csus4
You could never love without crying

Dm          F
Is she dead, is she fine

Dm        F
Every day, every night
C Csus4
C                   Csus4                 C      Csus4
Fate has dealt me a lonely blow, I said, ooh

Tried to help, only hurt

Csus4                       C        Csus4
In the end I made it worse, ooh

Is she dead, is she fine

Every day, every night

Give back my keys, give back my chair

C                           Csus4
Take back those clothes you always left on the floor
C Csus4
C                    Csus4
You drove like wild, drove me insane

C                       Csus4
Drank the whole bottle, forgot my name
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                      F
All I ever wanted was a mother for the first time

Dm                             G
Finally I could see you as the leader of the landslide
[Chorus]
C    E                Am     F               C
    She left, she left, the writing's on the wall

    E                Am    F           C
    Please believe me, I smell the alcohol

    E                Am       F                C
    The only thing I know is that we're in too deep

    E                    Am                 F
    And maybe when she's dead and gone I'll get some sleep
C Csus4 C Csus4
C                Csus4
You blamed it all on your kids

C                      Csus4
We were young, we were innocent

C                   Csus4
You told me a lie, fuck you for that

C                       Csus4
Fuck all your pride and fuck all your prayers
[Pre-Chorus]
     Dm                           F
And all this time I waited like a fool and for the first time

Dm                           G
Finally I can see you as the leader of the landslide
[Chorus]
C    E                Am     F               C
    She left, she left, the writing's on the wall

    E                Am      F               C
    Please believe me, don't answer when she calls

    E                Am       F                C
    The only thing I know is that we're in too deep

    E                    Am                 F
    And maybe when she's dead and gone I'll get some sleep
C Csus4 C Csus4
C                         E
Out there on my own I was feeling so alone

Am                        F
Like a poltergeist in the afterlife

C                        E
Fading by degrees, I was shaking in the knees

       Am                F
In the aftermath of this broken glass
[Outro] F C G Am F C G Am F C G Am F
