New version

Tone: [F]

[F]I would sleep better on your floor

than I would [Bb]ever in my bed

And if your [Dm]carpet makes my face itch

It'd still be [C]heaven in my head

I would play [F]more than just four chords

If it's a [Bb]song that you might like

But I [Dm]am not very good

So I would [C]practice every night

And she said, "[F]"Sometimes things just don't work [Bb]out -the way you want them to-

[F]Sometimes things just don't work [Bb]out -the way they should flow through-

[F]Sometimes things just don't work [Bb]out -the way you want them to-

[F]Sometimes things just don't work [Bb]out -it's better [C]me than it is you-."

"[Bb]"Break your neck and I will [G]love you like a bird that cannot [Dm]fly.

[Dm]You will be [C]fine,"

[Bb]And she says, "Break your neck and I will [G]love you every [Dm]night.

[Dm]You will be [C]mine."

I would stop [F]doing all those things

the doctor [Bb]tells me not to do

But I don't [Dm]think he understands

I do all [C]of these things for you

And you've got gold [F]plastic on your shelf

that they gave to [Bb]everybody else

And you can [Dm]say it says your name

but I don't [C]think that that would help
