music and lyrics by Jon Brion
Intro
x2
G A7 Bm A7
Verse
GA7
I know it's today
BmA7C
so I guess you could say one recovers.
GA7
It's odd you should call me,
BmA7CA7
but then, after all, we were lovers.
Chorus
CEmA7
I don't wait by the phone like I used to.
CEmA7
I don't hope for kind words you might say.
CEmA7
You don't prey on my mind like you used to
CAmDG
but you can still ruin my day.
CAmDG
You can still ruin my day.
Verse progression
You're telling me now
you regret how we never connected.
Oh, as if you forget
that it's me you regret you rejected.
Chorus progression
I don't easily forgive like I used to
and I seldom get carried away.
No, you don't have the pull that you used to
but you can still ruin my day.
You can still ruin my day.
BmDm/F
Love! It was lovely!
CEmAm
And it hardly hurt a bit!
GA7BmA7
Sounds good to me, but unfortunately
CA7
I remember it.
Chorus progression
Now I don't use my place like I used to.
I'm not moved by your artful display.
No, you can't draw me in like you used to
but you can still ruin my day.
You can still ruin my day.
You can still ruin my day.
C[ABmA7C
horus progression]
You can still ruin my day, I say,
you can still ruin my day.
