Verse 1
=======

F C Dm Bb
Nothing was saving our day,

F C
There was nothing to say,

Gm Bb
but you said something anyway.

F C Dm Bb
Claiming I stepped out of line,

F C
which forced you to leave me,
Gm Bb
as if that idea was mine.

Chorus
======

Gm Bb
Oh, you stupid thing,

F C
Speaking of course as your dear departed.

Gm Bb
Oh, you stupid thing,

F C
It wasn't me that you outsmarted.

Gm Bb
Oh, you stupid thing,

F
stopping it all

C Bb
before it even started.


Verse 2
=======

F C Dm Bb
I bet you knew it would come,

F C Gm
that's just like you, to sit back

Bb
and just play it dumb.

F C Dm Bb
One word of warning would help,

F C
but that sacrifice was made

Gm Bb
trying to save yourself.

Chorus
======

Dm Bb Bb/A Gm Bb F
Dm Bb Bb/A Gm Bb C Bb F

Verse 3
=======

F C Dm Bb
Maybe that's just how I am,

F C
to fall where I stand, or

Gm Bb
I'm weak for that kind of man.

F C Dm Bb
One who looks helpless and brave,

F C
but you turned into a coward,

Gm Bb
I don't care for the parts you saved.

Chorus
======

Outro
=====
Gm Bb F C
Repeat to fade
