Lover Dearest

• Em7

NOTES:
**D/F# is optional, a regular D chord will work fine. I just like the way D/F# sounds.

VERSE 1:
Em7                 Cadd9                    G
  This place is a hole, and I don't want to go.
(G)                 D/F#
I wish we could stay here forever alone.
Em7                    Cadd9                        G
  This time that we waste, but I still love your taste.
(G)                        D/F#                Cadd9
Don't let him take my place, don't just sit there.

CHORUS 1:
Em7                           Cadd9
  Sometimes I wish you would leave me.
(Cadd9)         G                            D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, is that as good as it gets,
            Em7   Cadd9              G
I'll just say it,      or I could slip into you,
(G)       D/F#
It's so easy to come back into you.

Em7, Cadd9, G, D/F#

VERSE 2:
Em7               Cadd9                  G
  I stand for awhile, and waited for words,
(G)               D/F#
Seen but not heard and struggled to try.
Em7                       Cadd9                    G
  My tongue's turning black, but I'll take you back.
(G)                 D/F#                   Em7
You're still the best more or less, I guess.
 Cadd9
I guess.

CHORUS 2:
               Em7        Cadd9
Don't you leave me, 
                 G                           D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
          Em7     Cadd9               G      
I'll just say it,       or I could slip into you,
       D/F#                     Cadd9
It's so easy to come back into you.

BRIDGE:
       D/F#                    Em7
It hurts me to say that it hurts me to stay.
           Cadd9       Em7       G
And it might be alright if you go.
(G)    D/F#                   Em7
It hurts me to say that I want you to stay,
           Cadd9       Em7       G     Cadd9
But it might be alright if you go.

CHORUS 3:
       Em7    Cadd9
So leave me, 
(Cadd9)          G                          D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
             Em7   Cadd9                      G      
I'll just hide it,       or I could slip into you,
       D/F#        Em7          
It's so easy to come 
    Cadd9    G    D/F#
back into you.

Em7, Cadd9, G, D/F#

OUTRO:
(D/F#)                     Em7
Sometimes I think that the bitter in you,
        Cadd9
And the quitter in me,
       G                     D/F#
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
    Em7                    Cadd9
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
       G                     D/F#
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
    Em7                    Cadd9         G     
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
         D/F#       Cadd9      G (let ring)
Is beeeeeeeeeeeeetter than the both of us.
