NOTES:
**D/F# is optional, a regular D chord will work fine. I just like the way D/F# sounds.
VERSE 1:
Em7 Cadd9 G
This place is a hole, and I don't want to go.
(G) D/F#
I wish we could stay here forever alone.
Em7 Cadd9 G
This time that we waste, but I still love your taste.
(G) D/F# Cadd9
Don't let him take my place, don't just sit there.
CHORUS 1:
Em7 Cadd9
Sometimes I wish you would leave me.
(Cadd9) G D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, is that as good as it gets,
(D/F#) Cadd9 G
I'll just say it, or I could slip into you,
(G) D/F#
It's so easy to come back into you.
Em7, Cadd9, G, D/F#
VERSE 2:
Em7 Cadd9 G
I stand for awhile, and waited for words,
(G) D/F#
Seen but not heard and struggled to try.
Em7 Cadd9 G
My tongue's turning black, but I'll take you back.
(G) D/F# Em7
You're still the best more or less, I guess.
Cadd9
I guess.

CHORUS 2:
Em7 Cadd9
Don't you leave me,
G D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
(D/F#) Cadd9 G
I'll just say it, or I could slip into you,
D/F# Cadd9
It's so easy to come back into you.
BRIDGE:
D/F# Em7
It hurts me to say that it hurts me to stay.
Cadd9 Em7 G
And it might be alright if you go.
(G) D/F# Em7
It hurts me to say that I want you to stay,
Cadd9 Em7 G Cadd9
But it might be alright if you go.
CHORUS 3:
Em7 Cadd9
So leave me,
(Cadd9) G D/F#
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
(D/F#) Cadd9 G
I'll just hide it, or I could slip into you,
D/F# Em7
It's so easy to come
Cadd9 G D/F#
back into you.
Em7, Cadd9, G, D/F#
OUTRO:
(D/F#) Em7
Sometimes I think that the bitter in you,
Cadd9
And the quitter in me,
G D/F#
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
Em7 Cadd9
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
G D/F#
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
Em7 Cadd9 G
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
D/F# Cadd9 G (let ring)
Is beeeeeeeeeeeeetter than the both of us.
