Intro: EmGC x3
Verse:
EmG
My friend Sallyʼs getting married
C
And to me that sounds so scary
EmGC
Iʼm still tryinʼ to clean up my side of the street
EmG
I canʼt imagine what would happen
CAm
ʼCause Iʼm still acting out of habit
EmGC
Hoping dirty words just donʼt escape my teeth
Pre-chorus:
Am
Oh, but every time I try just a little
C
Promise that Iʼll meet in the middle
AmC
Always find my way back to my feet
Chorus:
GC
So close the door and change the channel
AmC
Give me something I can handle
GCAmC
A good lover or someone thatʼs nice to me...
GC
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
AmC
Love me ʼtil your next somebody
AmC
Oh, but promise me that when itʼs time to leave.
EmGC
Donʼt forget me...
EmGC
Donʼt forget me...
Verse:
EmG
My friend Mollyʼs got a guy, she
C
Swears to God could be her family
EmGC
Says heʼs got the greenest eyes youʼve ever seen
EmG
But itʼs crazy all the days she spends
CAm
Just following him to parties
EmGC
She seems happy, oh, but thatʼs not love to me
Pre-chorus:
Am
Oh, but every time I try just a little
C
Promise that Iʼll meet in the middle
AmC
Always find my way back to my feet
Chorus:
GC
So close the door and change the channel
AmC
Give me something I can handle

Bridge:
DAmC
And maybe Iʼm dead wrong
DAmD
Maybe I was bitter from the winter all along
AmC
Maybe thereʼs a stranger standing, holding out for love
Am
Just waiting on the next street
GCAmC
Just for me...
GCAm
Oh, just for me...
Chorus:
GC
So close the door and change the channel
AmC
Give me something I can handle
