He says [C]sorry I woke you, but
I [G]just had to talk
[Em]You know[E] last [Am]night,
remember when [D]I tried to choke you?
I didn't [C]mean it, I was drunk,
it was [G]only a joke
You should [Am]know [G]that by [D]now
When the [C]checkered [Em]flag comes [A]down

The nex[Am]t night he's
over and [D]over and under
[Am]And [C]after he's finished she
[G]lies there and wonders
Just [Am]why does she need him and
[D]why does she stay here
And [C]then in the darkness she'll
[G]quietly say dear
You've [A]never [G]really [D]known that
[C]when the white flag [Em]is flown[A]
[Am]No one, no one, no o[E]ne has won the
war

They're [Am]com plicated people
Leading [D]complicated lives
And he [C]complicates their problems
Telling [G]complicated lies

He [C]tells her he's sorry,
she [G]says over and over

[Am]No o[A]ne, no[Am] one,
[E]no one has [Am]won the war
