Lyrics

Feels like you made a mis take,

But now I have to let you go.

You left a stain

on ev ’ry one of my good days.

But I am strong er than you (Dm)know.

I have to let you (A5)go.

No one’s ev er (F)turned you o ver.

(G)No one’s tried to (Am)ev er let you down.

Beau ti ful girl,

bless your heart.

I’ve got a dis (Am7)ease deep in side me, makes (D5)me feel un eas y, ba by.

(E7)I can’t live with out you.

Tell (Am)me what am I s’posed to do a bout it?

Keep your dis tance from (Dm)me.

Don’t pay no at ten tion to (E7)me.

I’ve got a dis (Am)ease.

Feels like you’re mak in’ a mess.

You’re hell on wheels in a black dress.

You drove me to the (Dm)fire

and left me there to (A5)burn.

Ev ’ry lit tle (F)thing you do is trag ic.

All my life, the whole world’s mag ic.
