Capo: 3 - Song feels in 7/4 (3/4 + 4/4)
Was [G]any [Csus2]of it true[D]?
[G]Gazing [Csus2]at me st[D]arry-eyed
In your Je[G]hovah's [Csus2]Witness [D]suit
[G]Who the [Csus2]fuck was [D]that guy?
You [Em]tried to [Cmaj7]buy some [Dsus4]pills
[Em]From a [Cmaj7]friend of friends of [Dadd4]mine
[G]They just [Csus2]ghosted [Dsus4]you
Now [Em]you know [Cmaj7]what it [Dadd4]feels like
 
[Em]And I don't [Cmaj7]even want you back, I just [Dsus4]want to know
[Em]If rusting my [Cmaj7]sparkling summer was the [Dsus4]goal
[Em]And I don't miss [Cmaj7]what we had, but could [Dsus4]someone give
[Em]A message to the [Cmaj7]smallest man who [Dsus4]ever lived?
 
You [G]hung me [Csus2]on your [D]wall
[G]Stabbed me [Csus2]with your [D]push pins
In [G]public, [Csus2]showed me [D]off
Then [G]sank in [Csus2]stoned ob[D]livion
'Cause [Em]once your [Cmaj7]queen had [Dsus4]come
You [Em]treat her [Cmaj7]like an [Dadd4]also-ran
You [Em]didn't [Cmaj7]measure [Dsus4]up
In [Em]any [Cmaj7]measure [Dadd4]of a man
 
[Em]And I don't [Cmaj7]even want you back, I just [Dsus4]want to know
[Em]If rusting my [Cmaj7]sparkling summer was the [Dsus4]goal
[Em]And I don't miss [Cmaj7]what we had, but could [Dsus4]someone give
[Em]A message to the [Cmaj7]smallest man who [Dsus4]ever lived? =N.C.=
 
Were you sent by someone[G] who wanted me dead[Em]?
Did you sleep with a [Dadd4]gun underneath our [C]bed?
Were you writing a [G]book? Were you a sleeper cell [Em]spy?
In fifty years, will [Dadd4]all this be declassi[C]fied?
And you'll confess why you [G]did it
And I'll say, "Good [Em]riddance"
'Cause it wasn't [Dadd4]sexy once it wasn't for[C]bidden
 
I would've died for your [G]sins
Instead, I just died [Em]inside
And you deserve [Dadd4]prison, but you won't get [C]time
You'll slide into [G]inboxes and slip through the [Em]bars
You crashed my [Dadd4]party and your rental [C]car
You said normal girls were [G]boring
But you were gone by the [Em]morning
You kicked out the [Dsus4]stage lights
But you're still [C]performing
 
And in plain sight, you [G]hid
But you are what you [Em]did
And I'll forget [Dadd4]you, but I'll never for[C]give
The smallest man who ever [G]lived
