 #Verse 1:

 C                            Em     
 Don't pretend that you don't know me
         F        C      
 If you mean to offend me
               G              
 Then you're doing pretty well
 C                             Em    
 And how convincingly you've shown me
            F                 C           
 That the love I thought was built to last
     G             C  
 Is now an empty shell
 
 
 Refrain:
 
 F                    C    
 Things can only get better
 G                       
 What's around the corner
          C   
 Who can tell?
        F                                  C    Am 
 I'll build a little place just north of heaven 
 Dm                   G             C   
 I'm kinda tired of living south of hell
 
 
 Verse 2:
 
 C                    Em       
 Don't assume you can ignore me
       F              C            
 You'd best bite your lip in case I
 G                
 Make it after all
 C                             Em      
 And how contemptuously you've shown me
       F         C      
 That all my aspirations
          G             C   
 Were so paltry and so small
 
 
 Refrain
 
 
 Bridge:
 
 F                                       
 Some mother's talking 'bout Guns'n'Roses
    C               
 As if I give a fuck
 
 At best I think they suck
 F                            C      
 I'm too preoccupied with my memories
        G       
 Not nonentities
 
 
 Refrain
 
 
     Dm              G               C  Em Am 
 I'm kinda tired of living south of hell 
     Dm              G                   
 I'm kinda tired of living... C Em Am G F
