Verse 1
F#mB
I want you to know that I’m happy for you
AE
I wish nothing but the best for you both
F#m
An older version of me
B
Is she perverted like me?
AE
Would she go down on you in a theater?
F#m
Does she speak eloquently?
B
And would she have your baby?
AE
I’m sure she’d make a really excellent mother
Chorus
F#mB
‘Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn’t able
AE
To make it enough for you to be open wide, no
F#mB
And every time you speak her name
AE
Does she know how you told me you’d hold me
Until you died, ’til you died
F#m
But you’re still alive
Verse 2
F#m
And I’m here to remind you
B
Of the mess you left when you went away

It’s not fair to deny me

Of the cross I bear that you gave to me

You, you, you oughta know
