C G
Girl of Mine
C G C
Where did we go wrong
C G
You never once said you loved me
C G
And you never once called my name
Am D
And now I, I can see the way
Em
My memories like cigarettes
Am
Blow smoke upon the screen
Em Bm
I stare up to the empty face
C D
That hangs inside my dreams
G D
In the words of love I hesitate
Em Em7 C D
They all come rushing into me too late, too late
C G
Days and nights
C G C
Wondering what could it be
C G
Did you need somebody stronger
C G Am
Someone to see you through, oh girl
D
I never knew
Em
Now your lipstick and your powder
Am
They^?re all put away in drawers
Em Bm
But the traces of our love affair
C D
Still hide behind the doors
G D
I lie awake, afraid to sleep
Em Em7 C
^?Cause I^?ll see the face I knew I^?d never keep
D
I^?d never keep
C G
Too much to bear
Am Em
Too much, I fall down drunk
C
Too much I care
(Solo same as verses)
C G
Tell me now
C G C
Do the words of love still seem the same to you
C G
Now we learned the angry lesson
C G
And we still come back for more
Am D
Forget somehow, what came before
Em
My senses have been shocked
Am
And I^?m alive to every pain
Em Bm
Your quiet laughter comes to me
C D
It echoes in the rain
G D
In the darkness of my lonely room
Em Em7 C
I pray that you won^?t fade away too soon
D
Too soon
C G
Too much to bear
Am Em
Too much, I fall down drunk
C G
Too much I care
