This song is really, really simple, which is surprising because it sounds so complex.
could probably use some fancy variations (M7, m7) if you really wanted, but I think it
fine. E-mail me if you have comments or questions: socialdsickgirl09@yahoo.com
Enjoy!

C G Em D
Verses:
C G
Guess what I'm done writing you songs
Em
You'll give up your job at the bank
D C
Proving money's not fun when you're gone
G
So this is the first verse
Am D
It's not very long but I'm ready to move on
Guess what I'm done writing your book
The ending got twisted around
But for all of the hell that it took
The electrical wires
They hum in the walls of the room that I rent now, without you
Chorus:
C G
I've got friends who (la la la lie)
Em D
Will help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
C G
The space man that can't get high
Am D
I'm coming back to my girl by July
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C G Em D

Guess what I'm done drawing you pictures
I'm dulling the day with a drink
In a parking garage by the theater
We met for a movie
Every scene was a sign, we made out through their meaning
Well I've got friends who (la la la lie)
Will help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
The space man that can't get high
I'm coming back to my girl by July
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Interlude:
C G Em D
C G Am D
C G
Guess what I'm done writing you songs
Em
Far to unstable to settle
D C
I doubt that my doctor's are wrong
G Am D
So I'll wait by a palm tree, a palm tree, a palm tree
Well, I've got friends (la la la lie)
To help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
The space man that can't get high
I'm coming back to my girl by July
I've got friends who (la la la lie)
To help me pull through (la la la lie la la la lie)
C G
This song for a long good-bye
Am
I'm coming back
D C G
I'm coming back to my girl

Back to my girl (la la la lie la la la lie)

This song for a long good-bye

I'm coming back to my girl by July
