E Fm A E
i have weaknesses like all my brothers do
Fm A Fm Am
an objectifying eye and hands that follow suit
E Fm A Am *
some ugly allergy to the true love on my plate
C#m D A E
wrong wiring , connections i can’t make

Fm A E
i had this pocketwatch from a love i couldn’t claim
Fm A Fm Am
i lost in luxembourg , whispering your name
E Fm A Am *
to a sculpture garden where time won’t heal all wounds
C#m D A E
without regret i still remember every night with you

Fm A E Fm A E

Fm A E
i felt your belly blessed with a blooming baby boy
Fm A Fm Am * *
i dreamt he’d be mine once – like i really had the choice
E Fm A Am *
kids do stupid things , and i was , and i did
C#m D A E
a long life ago , some other person lived

Fm A E
she seemed satisfied in the corner of the frame
Fm A Fm Am
until she turned to me , said “i need to walk away
E Fm A Am *
speak no argument , you’re nowhere close to sure;
C#m D A E
i’m sorry , but , i don’t have time for sorry anymore . ”
