[Intro 1]
[C][Am][G]
[C][F][C][F][C][Am]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
You can fake it for a [C]while
[F]Bite your tongue [Em]and smile
[C]Like every mot[Am]her does
her [G]ugly child
[F]But it starts the leak[G]ing out

[Verse 2]
[C]
Like [F]spittle from [C]a cloud
Amassed re[Am]sentment [C]pelting
[G]ounce and pound
You enter[F]taining [G]any doubt

[Verse 3]
[F]
'Cause you had to [C]know
that I was [G]fond of you
Fond of Y-O-U
[F]Though Though Though I knew
[C]you masked your [G]disdain

[Verse 4]
[F]
I can see [C]the change was
just too [G]hard for us
Hard for [F]us
You always [C]had to hold the [G]reigns
But where I'm headed,
you [Dm]just don't know [G]the way
[Em]

[Verse 5]
[G][C]
So affections fade away
Or do adults just learn to play
The most ri[Am]diculous,
re[G]pulsive games?
All our [F]fa vorite [G]ruddy son

[Verse 6]
[C]s
And their [F]double-barreled gun[C]s
guns
You'd better [Am]hurry rabbit,
[G]run, run, run
'Cause [F]mincing [G]you is fun

[Verse 7]
[C]
[F]And the[C]re's a lot of hungry
[Am]hatters in [G]this world
Set on taking it over
But [F]brittle, [G]thorny stem

[Verse 8]
[C]s
[F]They break before [C]they bend
And neither [Am]one of us is o[G]ne of them
And the [F]tears will [G]never mend

[Verse 9]
[F]
'Cause you had it [C]in for me so [G]long ago
Boy, I still [F]don't know
I don't know [C]why and I
don't [G]care

[Verse 10]
Well, hardly any[F]more
If you'd only [C]seen yourself [G]hating me
Hating [F]me
When I've [C]been so much more
[G]than fair
But then you'd have to [Dm]lay
those feelings [G]bare

[Verse 11]
One [Dm]thing I know has still got [G]you scared
Yeah, [Dm]all that cold ire
And [Am]never once [C]aired on a [G]dare

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][Am]
[G][C][Am]
[C][G][C][F][C]
[Am][G][C][F][C]
[Am][C][G][F]

[Verse 12]
You had to [C]know that I was [G]fond of you
Fond of Y-O-U
So [F]So So I took your [C]licks at
the [G]time

[Verse 13]
[F]
And a change like [C]that is
just so [G]hard to do
Hard to [F]do
Don't let it [C]whip-crack your your [G]life
And I'll bow [Dm]out from

[Verse 14]
[G]the fight
Those [Dm]old pious sisters were r[G]ight
The [Dm]worst part is over
[Am]Now get back on [C]that horse and ride
