[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E
I wanted to write you a song that would rightly express in three minutes or
B
less
How elated that you leave me, after you have come to see me
B5 B7* E*
That the whole world ought to know my happiness
E E7 A Am
Alas, when I find a moment to write and think of the perfect lines
E C#
You call to say you're never coming back
N.C. Am B7 E
And then I have to start over from scratch
[Verse 2]
E
I wander the streets of this town
B
Tying knots in my brow, thinking my thoughts out loud
If words were as specific as my heart is prolific
B5 B7* E*
Then you would have had one hundred songs by now
E E7 A Am
But, oh, happy day, that I didn't say it or put it to song, anyway
E C#
I started out this tune from me to you
N.C. Am B7 E
And then I ended up singing the blues
[Chorus 1]
B Am
I was born to sing sad songs
E G#
That go on for more than three minutes long
N.C. C#m G# G#7sus Am
And I feel another coming on
E B7/E
Now that you're gone
B Am
I was born to sing sad songs
E G#
That go on for more than three minutes long
N.C. C#m
I'd be pleasantly surprised
