I [G]hate the clothes you're wearing,
[Am]they're so p[D]retty
[G]I tell you not to [C]see me
I [G]tell you not to feel [C]me
I [G]make your life [Am]a drag, [D]it's such a pity

[Verse 2]
I [G]watch your warm glow [C]palin'

As [G]you realize you're fail[Am]in'

[Verse 4]
It's [G]no use me [C]pretending
You [G]give and I do the [C]spending
Is [G]there a happy ending,
[Am]I don't think so[D]
[G]'Cause even if we make [C]it
I'll [G]be too far out to [C]take it
You'll [G]have to try and shake
[Am]it from my head
