 Em                 A
I want you to know that Iʼm happy for you.
  Em                 A
I wish nothing but the best for you both.
         Em                     Em
Another version of me Is she preverted like me?
           A                    A
Would she go down on you in a theatre?
               Em                 Em
Does she speak eloquently?And would she have your baby?
                A                        A
Iʼm sure sheʼd make a really excellent mother.
           Em
ʼCause the love that you gave that we made

              G                            A        A
wasnʼt able to make it enough for you to be open wide. No,
 Em
and everytime you speak her name
          G
does she know how you told me youʼd hold me
   A
until you died? ʼTil you died,

but youʼre still alive.
        E            D
And Iʼm here to remind you
           G                      A
of the mess you left when you went away.
         E        D
Itʼs not fair to deny me
         G                   A
of the cross I bare that you gave to me.
 A
You, you, you oughta know.

 Em
You seem very well.
 A
Things look peaceful.
 Em
Iʼm not quite as well.
 A
I thought you should know.

          Em                 Em
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity?
          A                         A
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner.
         Em                          Em
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced,
             A                      A
and are you thinking of me when you fuck her?

           Em
ʼCause the love that you gave that we made
              G                            A        A
wasnʼt able to make it enough for you to be open wide. No,
 Em
and everytime you speak her name
          G
does she know how you told me youʼd hold me
    A                                      A
until you died? ʼTil you died, but youʼre still alive.

        E            D
And Iʼm here to remind you
            G                      A
of the mess you left when you went away.
         E        D
Itʼs not fair to deny me
         G                   A
of the cross I bare that you gave to me.
 A
You, you, you oughta know.

          Em
Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me,
          G                          A
and Iʼm not gonna fadeas soon as you close your eyes, and you
   A
know it.
    Em
And everytime I scratch my nails down
 G
someone elseʼs back
           A                        A
I hope you feel it. Can you feel it?

        E            D
And Iʼm here to remind you
           G                      A
of the mess you left when you went away.
         E        D
Itʼs not fair to deny me
         G                   A
of the cross I bare that you gave to me.
 A
You, you, you oughta know.
