Romantic fatigue

[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G][C][G][C][D]

[Verse 1]
I [G]have to admit that
I am [C]one of the many
Who thought that a guitar
would [D]win him a lady.
My [G]teenage years,
they were a [C]feminine drought,
And I thought that a serenade
[D]would help out.
And it [G]seemed to be working
for a [C]couple of years –
I wrote a few songs and they
[D]wrought a few tears.
But when [G]I hit my twenties,
it [C]ran out of steam.
I seemed to be suffering
from ro[D]mantic fatigue.

[Verse 2]
And [Em]I never kn[C]ow which
song I should [G]play her –
Each [D]melody [Em]is a mem[C]ory
of a [Am]not- forgotten fail[D]ure.
So when [C]I get o[D]ut my guitar to
[Em]night to [D]do what [C]I do,
Remember, I probably didn't [D]write
this song [G]for you.

[Interlude 1]
[C][D][G][C][D]

[Verse 3]
So [G]as I have mentioned,
[C]the shelf- life was short.
The scheme wasn't working,
des[D]pite what I thought.
The [G]ladies all left me [C]alone in the end,
So I had to switch all the names
around [D]and then sing it again.

[Verse 4]
And [Am]every [D]life- long [G]love,
and [D]every be[Em]st f[D]riend,
[Am]Slipped [D]away into the pas[G]t.
[Am]Take my [D]words with cau[G]tion – I [D]can't pre[Em]tend that [D]you're the first,
[C][G][Am]
You won't [C]be the last.
[D]

[Verse 5]
[Em]I never kn[C]ow which song
I should [G]play her –
Each [D]melody [Em]is a m[C]emory
of a [Am]not- forgotten [D]failure.
So [C]when I get [D]out my guitar to
[Em]night to [D]do what [C]I do,
Remember,
I probably didn't [D]write this song,
No I [C]certainly didn't [D]write this song,
No I [C]never, never wro[D]te a song [C]for you.
