Intro: A E Bm D (2x) 


Verse 1: 

A             E          Bm           D 
You threw me out on the sidewalk last night,  
A             E               Bm         D 
You dumped my clothes out the window too. 
A         E            Bm             D 
I threw rocks at the glass panes and wood,  
            A      E        Bm           D    
We need to talk I needed a word with you. 

A       E          Bm           D 
We made up on the couch on the floor,  
A        E         Bm            D 
But you told me I needed to lose 
A       E           Bm       D 
A few pounds on the body I loved,  
           A          E             Bm         D 
I went to work and I talked with a man I grew up with. 


He said,  
A       E                          F#m     E           D 
"Oh, a sad sight you are, you are slowly unraveling me. 
A        E                          F#m         E           D 
Oh, no tears on a Tuesday you need better than what he can give you. 
F#m          E           D 
Better than what he can give you." 


Interlude: A E Bm D (2x) 


Verse 2: 

A           E         Bm          D 
He held me tight for longer than normal,  
A           E       Bm           D 
I cuddled close, I couldn't believe it. 
A             E          Bm          D 
He whispered words in my ear it was nice,  
        A          E            Bm            D 
But it wasn't the same when he called me the wrong name. 

A      E            Bm              D 
I ran off down the street down the corner,  
        A       E            Bm      D 
And he caught me in his arms. 
A         E         Bm         D 
And once again he delivered a comfort,  
   A          E          Bm          D 
A need I had known ever since I was young. 
 

He said,  
A       E                            F#m      E          D 
"Oh, a sweet sight you are, you are slowly unraveling me. 
A         E                           F#m           E              D 
Oh, I 'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who would lose you. 
    F#m          E              D 
A strange man indeed who could lose you." 


Interlude: A E D (4x) 

A      E                             F#m      E       D 
Oh,     a sweet sight you are, you are slowly undoing me. 
A        E                           F#m           E              D 
Oh, I'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who could lose you. 
   F#m           E              D hold 
A strange man indeed who could lose you.
