Strumming pattern is something like ... D D DUDU go nuts. Last chord rolls into the

start of the next line a bit.

Intro

Progression x 4 (4th time he skips the E/C# and plays the E twice into the A)

  Can't pretend that all is well it's like I'm haunted by a ghost

  There are times I cannot speak your name but I catch it in my throat

  And if I don't sing this song it's out of fear of sour notes (not sure

if that's 'of' OR 'or')

  Progression x 1 ( )

  Oh I feel like a miser Oh I feel low and mean

  For accusing you of stealing what I offered you for free

  Oh it beggars the belief sometimes what thieves we lovers be

  Progression x 1 ( )

  Oh I don't know who you're with these days might be with someone new

  And if you are I hope he treats you like a lover ought to do

  But whoever makes you happy it don't really matter who

  I've got a new lover now I hope you've got a lover too

  Progression x 4 ( )

  Praise the water under bridges praise the time we say we'll heal

  Praise the fonder that still grows on the absent heart and fields

  Praise be to this pain these days it's all I seem to feel (not

sure on lyric? all the same i fear? all the same i feel?)

  Progression x 1 ( )

  Perhaps the fault was mine perhaps I just ignored

  Who you were always gonna be instead of who I took you for

  I've been treated worse it's true still I expected more

  Progression x 1 ( )

  But I will not chase your shadow as you go from room to room

  Dropping handkerchiefs and daggers smoking guns and other clues

  For what someone did with someone and who did what to who

  I've got a new lover now I hope you've got a lover too.

Progression x 4

  I got a new lover now she knows just what I need

  When I wake up in the night she can read me back my dreams

  And she loves them cause she never needs to tell me what they mean

  Progression x 1 ( )

  I got a new lover now I know that she's not mine

  And I only want to hold her I don't need to read her mind

  And she only looks like you when she's in a certain light

  Progression x 1 ( )

  I hope you've got a lover now hope you've got somebody who

  Can give you what you need like i couldn't seem to do

  But if you're sad and you are lonesome and you've got nobody true

  I'd be lying if I said that didn't make me happy too.

  Progression x 1 ( )

  I'd be lying if I said that didn't make me happy too.

Progression x 4
