You Oughta Know Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I want you to know, that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older [Em]version of me
Is she perverted like me?
Would she go [A]down on you in a theater?
Does she speak [Em]eloquently
And would she have your baby?
I'm sure she'd [A]make a really excellent mother

[Pre-chorus 1]
'Cause the [Em]love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you
To be o[A]pen wide, no
And [Em]every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until [A]you died
'Til you died, but you're still alive

[Chorus 1]
And I'm [E]here, to re[D]mind you
Of the [G]mess you left when you went [A]away
It's not [E]fair, to de[D]ny me
Of the [G]cross I bear that you gave [A]to me

[Verse 2]
You, you, you oughta know
[Em]You seem very well,
[A]things look peaceful
[Em]I'm not quite as well,
I [A]thought you should know
Did you for[Em]get about me, Mr. Duplicity?
I hate to [A]bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a [Em]slap in the face
How quickly I was replaced
And are you [A]thinking of me
when you fuck her?

[Pre-chorus 2]
'Cause the [Em]love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you
To be o[A]pen wide, no
And [Em]every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me
You'd hold me until [A]you died
'Til you died, but you're still alive

[Chorus 2]
And I'm [E]here, to re[D]mind you
Of the [G]mess you left when you went [A]away
It's not [E]fair, to de[D]ny me
Of the [G]cross I bear that you gave [A]to me

[Interlude 1]
You, you, you oughta know
[A][A]
[A][A]
[A][A]
[A][Em]

[Pre-chorus 3]
'Cause the [Em]joke that you laid in the bed
That was me and I'm not gonna fade
As soon as you close [A]your eyes,
and you know it
And [Em]every time I scratch my nails
Down someone else's back I hope you [A]feel it
Well, can you feel it?

[Chorus 3]
Well I'm [E]here, to re[D]mind you
Of the [G]mess you left when you went [A]away
It's not [E]fair, to de[D]ny me
Of the [G]cross I bear that you gave [A]to me
You, you, [A]you oughta know

[Chorus 4]
Well I'm [E]here, to re[D]mind you
Of the [G]mess you left when you went [A]away
It's not [E]fair, to de[D]ny me
Of the [G]cross I bear that you gave [A]to me
You, you, you oughta know
