[Verse 1]
[F#m] [B]
I want you to know that I'm happy for you.
[F#m] [B]
I wish nothing but the best for you both.
[F#m]
Another version of me, is she perverted like me?
[B]
Would she go down on you in a theatre?
[F#m]
Does she speak
eloquently? And would she have your baby?
[B]
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
[F#m]
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
[B]
wasn't able to make it enough
for you to be open wide. No,
[F#m]
and every time you speak her name
does she know how you told me you'd hold me
[B]
until you died? 'Til you died,
but you're still alive.
[Chorus]
[F#] [E]
And I'm here to remind you
[A] [B]
of the mess you left when you went away.
[F#] [E]
It's not fair to deny me
[A] [B]
of the cross I bear that you gave to me.
[B]
You, you, you oughta know.
[Verse 2]
[F#m]
You seem very well.
[B]
Things look peaceful.
[F#m]
I'm not quite as well.
[B]
I thought you should know.
[F#m]
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity?
[B]
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner.
[F#m]
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced,
[B]
and are you thinking of me when you fuck her?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
[F#m]
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
[A]
[B] [B]
wasn't able to make it enough
for you to be open wide. No,
[F#m]
and every time you speak her name
does she know how you told me you'd hold me
[B]
until you died? 'Til you died,
but you're still alive.
[Chorus]
[F#] [E]
And I'm here to remind you
[A] [B]
of the mess you left when you went away.
[F#] [E]
It's not fair to deny me
[A] [B]
of the cross I bear that you gave to me.
[B]
You, you, you oughta know.
[Pre-chorus 3]
[F#m]
'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me,
[B]
and I'm not gonna fade as soon
as you close your eyes, and you
know it.
[F#m]
And every time I scratch my
nails down someone else's back
[B]
I hope you feel it. Can you feel it?
[Chorus]
[F#] [E]
Well I'm here to remind you
[A] [B]
of the mess you left when you went away.
[F#] [E]
It's not fair to deny me
[A] [B]
of the cross I bear that you gave to me.
[B]
You, you, you oughta know.
