Key: C
Introduction: C Em Am F
C
I turn the bathroom light on
To take my make up off
F
Look at myself in the eye
I wonder why I wear it anyway
C
Another car drives by
I wonder where you are
F
The kids are all in bed
And everything but you is in its place
Dm F
From the street view lookin' in
Dm
It's pretty as a picture
F
Our home sweet home
C
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Em
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Am
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
F
But someone like me never will
C
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
Em
I just smile with a lump in my throat
Am
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
F C Em Am F
And didn't have to wear this sugar coat
C
Passed down from my mom
She worried so well
F
She rested on my shoulders
Says it's cold out there, anything
Dm F
Would I recognize myself
Dm
With anybody else?
If I took the damn thing off
F
And burned it up
C
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Em
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Am
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
F
But someone like me never will
C
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
Em
I just smile with a lump in my throat
Am
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
F C
And didn't have to wear this sugar coat
Em Am F
Oh, this damn sugar coat
Dm F
And one of these nights I'll meet you in the driveway
Dm
And tell you to go to hell
C
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Em
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Am
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
F
But someone like me never will
C
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
Em
I just smile with a lump in my throat
Am
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
F C Em
And didn't have to wear this sugar coat
Am F
This damn sugar coat
C Em
Oh, this sugar coat
Am F
This damn sugar coat
