Verse 1:
CCmaj7CCmaj7
And We're all dressed up, no place to run
CCmaj7CCmaj7
No car, no girl, no pills, no fun
AmAm7AmAm7
Nothing to do in this empty room
AmAm7AmAm7
I gotta get my head together soon
CCmaj7CCmaj7
Alone again, no plans, no friends
CCmaj7CCmaj7
You come around at half past ten
AmAm7AmAm7
And say "How are you holding up my friend?
AmAm7AmAm7
Are you sitting around getting drunk again?"
Chorus 1:
DmEm
And I hear the desperation of those lines
FG
Wasted hours, all this wasted time
Yeah, I been just fine!
CCCCCCCCmaj7AAAAAAAAm7
Verse 2:
CCmaj7CCmaj7
And we're out the door in an hour more
CCmaj7CCmaj7
We stumble down from the second floor
AmAm7AmAm7
And we're swaying and braying
AmAm7AmAm7
We don't know what we're saying
CCmaj7CCmaj7
And you grab my shirt, your way so curt
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I swear to God that this doesn't hurt
AmAm7AmAm7
When you stare like that, you put on that act
AmAm7AmAm7
You say something and then you take it back
Chorus 2:
DmEm
And I feel as though I've done something wrong
FG
Oh, how I miss you when you are gone
Interlude:
CCCCCCCCmaj7AAAAAAAAm7CCCCCCCCmaj7AAAAAAAAm7DEFG
Verse 3:
CCmaj7CCmaj7
And I wish I had the guts to scream
CCmaj7CCmaj7
You know, things aren't always what they seem
AmAm7AmAm7
When you walk away, I want you to stay
AmAm7AmAm7
Don't leave me here to pace and pray
CCmaj7CCmaj7
All these nights I burned, hours I turned
CCmaj7CCmaj7
You'd think that by now I'd learned
AmAm7AmAm7
That you're only what you pretend to be
AmAm7AmAm7
I guess that was just lost on me
Chorus 3:
DmEm
And I can't stand the way you look at me in that dress
FG
Oh Papillon, I might be alright I guess
If I wasn't such a mess
Outro(same chords as verse):
CCCCCCCCmaj7Am
I'm such a mess
AAAAAAAm7C
I'm such a mess
CCCCCCCmaj7Am
I'm such a mess
AAAAAAAm7C
I'm such a mess
