[Verse 1]
C C/G# F7F
What you did to me made me see myself something different
C C/G#F7 F
Though I try to talk sense to myself but I just won't listen
Fm/C# C (C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
Won't you go away, turned yourself in, you're no good at confession
Fm/C# C Cmaj7 F/A F
Before the image that you burned me in tries to teach you a lesson
[Verse 2]
C C/G# F7 F
What you did to me made me see myself somethin' awful
CC/G# F7 F
A voice once stentorian is now again meek and muffled
Fm/C#C (C7) Cmaj7 F/AF
It took me such a long time to get back up the first time you did it
Fm/C# C (C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I've been outbidded
[Chorus]
C G Am
My peace and quiet was stolen from me
Dm7
When I was looking with calm affection
Ab
You were searching out my imperfections
Am AmFC
What wasted unconditional love
Dm7 Ab
On somebody who doesn't believe in the stuff
[Interlude]
C C/G# F7 F
C C/G# F7 F
[Bridge]
Fm/C# C (or C7) Cmaj7 F/A F
You came upon me like a hypnic jerk when I was just about settled
Fm/C# C Cmaj7F/A F
And when it counts you recoil with a cryptic word and leave a love belittled
C Em/G G Am
Ohhhhh what a cooooooold and common old way to go
Dm7
I was feeding on the need for you to know me
Ab
Devastated at the rate you fell below meee
Am AmFC
What wasted unconditional love
Dm7 Ab
On somebody who doesn't believe in the stuff
C
Oh, well
