Am F C G I wrote her off for the tenth time today Am F C G And practice all the things I would say Am F C G When she came over I lost my nerve Am F C G I took her back and made her dessert Now I know I'm being used That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse I know she's playing with me That's okay 'cause I've got no self-esteem We make plans to go out at night I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light This rejection's got me so low If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so Chorus: Dm A# F C When she's saying oh that she wants only me Dm A# F C Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends Dm A# F C When she's saying oh that I'm like a disease Dm A# F C Then I wonder how much more I can spend Dm A# F C Well I Guess I should stick up for myself Dm A# F C But I really think it's better this way Dm A# C G F The more you suffer, the more it shows you really care G Right? Yeah yeah yeah... Now I'll relate this little bit It happens more than I'd like to admit Late at night, she knocks on my door She's drunk again and looking to score Now I know I should say no But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb I'm just a sucker with no self-esteem Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Dm  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
