Am Every morning I wake up D From a dream of you, holding me Am Underwater (Is that a dream or a memory?) Held my breath for a decade D Dyed my hair blue to match my lips Cool of me to try (Pretty cool I'm still alive) Chorus: C D Bm I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum C Oh, I stayed with you too long C D Bm Skipping like a record, but I sang along C To a silly little song C D I said I beat it like a dead horse, Bm I beat it like a drum C Oh, I stayed with you too long C D Bm Skipping like a record, but I sang along C Am A shitty never-ending song Sometimes it's good to be the bigger person But I'm so small I can't compare And after all, it's only fair, yeah I got what I deserved, I was the other woman first Other others on the line But I kept trying to make it work Chorus: I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum Oh, I stayed with you too long Skipping like a record, but I sang along To a silly little song I said I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum Oh, I stayed with you too long Skipping like a record, but I sang along To your shitty little song Am D Ya-ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya C G Am Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya D Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya C Am Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya Em D G Am When I said goodbye, I hope you cri-i-ied D G Am When I said goodbye, I hope you cri-i-ied D G Am When I said goodbye, I hope you cri-i-ied When I said goodbye, I hope you cri-i-ied Chorus: I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum Oh, I stayed with you too long Skipping like a record, but I sang along To a silly little song I said I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum Oh, I stayed with you too long Skipping like a record, but I sang along And now you get another song Ya-ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (Now you get another song) Ya-ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya Ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya (Now you get another song) You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  Bm  C  D  Em  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
