Key: G
Introduction:
G
I miss your breath.
Bm G
Labored and wheezing.
C Cm
Choked up with phlegm
G B
I miss the times we stayed in bed all day
Em
You swore over the phone to your boss
C
You'd never felt this way.
G
You called me the cold
Bm
But you're the one who froze out me.
Em
And trapped me in a HAZMAT vial in the
C
Basement of the CDC.
G
How can I let you go?
Bm
After all that we've been through?
Em
They tell me now that I've been cured
C Cm
But not from loving you.
G
You called me common.
Bm G
Flu like or the croup.
Bm C
You tried to drown me
Cm
With chicken soup
G
You passed me around
Bm G
Like a 10 cent whore
Bm C
But every 4-6 months
Cm
I came back for more.
G
Ebola got a movie
Bm
HIV got quilts and songs
Em
The black plague got a tapestry
C
But I don't even see a handkerchief for me.
G Bm
Oh Irony.
Em C
I'm cured. But not from loving you.
(bridge)
Em
I started to realize you didn't need me
C G
The moment you forgot whether to starve or feed me
C G C G
It's easy for you to call me your ex
D
But now how do you explain all those wads
Of kleenex.
G Bm
You couldn't fight me, sent a man to the moon instead
Em C
Now all I do is wonder who's keeping you up tonight in your bed.
G Bm
I'm cured, I'm cured.
Em C
But not from loving you.
G
I'm cured.
Bm Em
But not from loving you.
C
Achoo.
