Key: G
Introduction:
G G/F#
I know I said I loved you but I'm thinking I was wrong,
Bm Em
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young,
Am D Am
and I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs.
G G/F#
but a guy that I could never get 'cause his girlfriend was pretty fit
Bm Em
and everyone who knew her loved her so.
Am D
and I made you leave her for me and now I'm feeling pretty mean,
Bm Em Am D
but my mind has fucked me over more times than any man could ever know.
Em Am
Maybe I should give up, give in,
D G
give up trying to be thin,
Em Am
give up and turn into my mother,
D G
god knows I love her.
G Bm Am D
and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,
G Bm Am D
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
G Bm
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
Am D
and I can't do it again.
G G/F#
So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right,
Bm Em
but I couldn't get into his head just what was going through my mind,
Am
and I think he knew where I was going
D
he put Ryan Adams on
G
I think he thinks it makes me weak
G/F#
it only ever makes me strong.
Bm Em
I've got this friend who sounds just like him,
Am D G
now he's the man I'd leave you for, the man that I just adore like you.
G G/F#
The same man, he turns to me he said I've got to tell you how i feel,
Bm Em
if god could make the perfect girl for me it would be you
Am D
and my god told me not tell about how much do you love your fella?
G Em
I don't know more everyday
C D G
not in this new romantic way.
F Am D F Am D
I'll always be your first love, you'll always be my first love.
G Bm Am D
And I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state
G Bm Am D
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware,
G Bm Am
I will never love a man 'cause I could never hurt a man in this way.
G Bm Am
I will never love a man cause I could never hurt a man, not in this new
D G
romantic way.
