Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[A]The Carter family lived [Em]next door
for [A]almost [Em]14 years
With [A]Gwen and [Em]I inseperatable from
[A]rag dolls [Em]through brassieres
Then [D]Gwen began to [G]bore me with
[C]her giggles and her [Am]fears
[Dsus4]The day the C[Dm]arters moved a[F]way,
[G]I had to fake my [C]tears[Bm][C][G]
I [Eb]told new friends Gwen [Bb]Carter
[Gm]had [D]become[Dsus4] a silly p[D]est
And [G]then I found I missed [D]her [C]more
than I'd [G]ever have guessed
[Abm]Grandma

[Verse 2]
[A]used to [Em]nag at me
to [A]straighten up my [Em]spine
To [A]act respectful and read [Em]good books
To take [A]care of what was [Em]mine
I [D]hated being [G]criticized and
[C]asking her permis[Am]sion
[Dm]So what if her advise was [F]wise,
It [G]always hurt to [C]listen
[Bm]I di[C]dn't[Am] cry[G] wh[Eb]en Granny died,[Gm]
she [Dsus4]made me so depr[D]essed
And [G]then I found I missed [D]her [C]more
than I'd [G]ever have guessed
[Abm]You

[Verse 3]
[A]used to make me [Em]moan in bed,
but [A]that can't be [Em]enough
My [A]friends complained your
[Em]jokes were crude,
Your [A]manners were too [Em]rough
Don't [D]know just what I [G]wanted,
but I [C]know I wanted [Am]more
[Dm]Someone smooth, [F]presentable,
to [G]blend with [Em]my decor
[C]An [Bm]d now[C] a[Am]t nig[G]ht [Eb]I think of how[Bb]
[Gm]you grin[Em]ned when you undress[D]ed
[G]And I find I miss y[D]ou mor[C]e than I'd eve[G]r hav[D]e gue[G]ssed.
