G   Em7    Dsus4
Sour  candy    endings
G       Em7   Dsus4
Coffee stained    but aware
D  Dsus4   G       Em7
Oh I'm so tangled up
     Dsus4
in my    big sunglasses and
Em7      C        Dsus4   D Dsus4
Bed hungry second day fare

Chorus:
G   D      Am
No we went under
               C
The weight was too
much to carry in
G  D        Am
I felt the thunder
        C
Mister don't
look so scared
G
I never knew
   D
I never knew
Am   C              G
That I could be so sad
D       Am
we went under

And I've been very cautious
Trying numbness instead of pain
All your humor makes me, makes me nauseous
What a twisted, twisted, twisted game

Chorus

C                 B
Ohh get yourself home
               Em
You leave him alone
    D
On second thought
    A/C#
I regret the pink stiletto
C
Oooohhhhh
          Cm
Oooohhhhh Ho

Sour candy endings
And I was barely even there

Chorus:
No, we went under
The weight was too much to carry and
I felt the thunder
Mister, don't look so scared
I never knew, I never knew that
I could be so sad (we went under)
So sad (we went under)
So sad (we went under)
So sad (we went under)
So sad we went under
