just an idea . . . no idea where to put the capo .
C Am
what a performance tonight
Dm G
should i react or turn off the light?
C Am
looks like you’re picking a fight
Dm G
in a blurring of wrong and right
Em F
but how your mood changes
G F
you’re a devil , now an angel
G F
suddenly subtle and solemn and silent
C
as a monk
G F
you only tell me you love me
C
when you’re drunk
C Am
it’s better than nothing , i suppose
Dm G
some doors have opened , others closed
C Am
but i couldn’t see you exposed
Dm G
to the horrors behind some of those
Em F
somebody said , listen ,
G F
don’t you know what you’re missing?
G F
you should be kissing him instead of dissing him like
C
a punk
G F
but you only tell me you love
C
me when you’re drunk
G F
you only tell me you love me
C
when you’re drunk
F G
all of my friends keep asking me
C Am
“why? oh , why
do you not say goodbye?
if you don’t even try
you’ll be sunk”
’cause you only tell me you
love me when you’re drunk
what’s the meaning
when you speak with so much feeling?
is it over when you’re sober?
is it junk?
you only tell me you love me
when you’re drunk
you only tell me you love me
when you’re drunk
just an idea . . . no idea where to put the capo .
