Intro: G D C D (x2)
G D C D
Well that's how it is when it's over and done
G D C D G D C D
All bets are off and we both go running for cover
G D C D
Blaming each other
G D C D
Yeah the grapevine will hum with the fiction or fact
G D C D Em
Gets kinda messy in the aftermath of a meltdown
C
It's always a small small town
Chorus 1:
G D C D
You can doctor the spin when you tell all your friends
G D C D
But you can't say that I didn't love you
G D C D
Does it make me a jerk cause it just didn't work
G D C D
When you can't say that I didn't love you
C
There were some things we could not overcome
But love or the lack of it never was one
G D C D
You can put a new face on that old twist of fate
F G D C D
But deep down inside you can't say that I didn't love you
G D C
G D C D
Now it's only normal to criticize
G D C D
How it all went down cause the tension's running high
G D C D
And we say things
G D C D
That we don't mean
G D C D
But that doesn't change last summer and fall
G D C D Em
If that wasn't love then what do you call September
C
Do you remember
Chorus 2:
You can doctor the spin when you tell all your friends
But you can't say that I didn't love you
You can vilify me to a certain degree
But you can't say that I didn't love you
There were some things we could not overcome
But love or the lack of it never was one
You can tailor the truth till it fits like a suit
But deep down inside you can't say that I didn't love you
Instrumental: G D C D (x4)
C
There were some things we could not overcome
But love or the lack of it never was one
Chorus 3:
You can doctor the spin when you tell all your friends
But you can't say that I didn't love you
Does it make me a jerk cause it just didn't work
When you can't say that I didn't love you
You can vilify me to a certain degree
But you can't say that I didn't love you
There were some things we could not overcome
But love or the lack of it never was one
You can put a new face on that old twist of fate
But deep down inside you can't say that I didn't love you
