[Verse 1]
F#m7 B
I want you to know that I'm happy for you
F#m7 B
I wish nothing but the best for you both
F#m7
An older version of me, is she perverted like me?
B
Would she go down on you in a theatre?
F#m7
Does she speak eloquently? And would she have your baby?
B
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F#m7
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
B
wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
F#m7
And every time you speak her name does she know how you told me you'd hold me
B
until you died? Till you died, but you're still alive
[Chorus]
F# E
And I'm here to remind you
A B
Of the mess you left when you went away
F# E
It's not fair to deny me
A B
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
B N.C.
You, you, you oughta know
[Verse 2]
F#m7
You seem very well
B7
Things look peaceful
F#m7
I'm not quite as well
B
I thought you should know
F#m7
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity?
B
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
F#m7
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced,
B
and are you thinking of me when you fuck her?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F#m7
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
B
wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
F#m7
And every time you speak her name does she know how you told me you'd hold me
B
until you died? Till you died, but you're still alive
[Chorus]
F# E
And I'm here to remind you
A B
Of the mess you left when you went away
F# E
It's not fair to deny me
A B
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
B N.C.
You, you, you oughta know
[Interlude]
B7sus4 B7
B7sus4 B7
Oh... oh...
B7sus2 B
Oooh.. ahhh
B7 B7
Ohh, ohh, ohh ho, ohh ho, ohh ho
[Pre-chorus 3]
F#m7
Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me,
B
and I'm not gonna fade as soon as you close your eyes, and you know it
F#m7
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back
B
I hope you feel it, well can you feel it?
[Chorus]
F# E
Well, I'm here to remind you
A B
Of the mess you left when you went away
F# E
It's not fair to deny me
A B
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
B
You, you, you oughta know
F# E
Well, I'm here to remind you
A B
Of the mess you left when you went away
F# E
It's not fair to deny me
A B
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
B N.C.
You, you, you oughta know

To: tabs4acoustic: You did a great job with this one, so how about "What I Really Want"?
+1

The chords in the bridge don't change when you transpose (down 2, capo 2...easier that way), so here they are:
B7sus4 = A7sus4 B7 = A7 B7sus2 = A7sus2 B = A

This is the only correct version I've seen with the F#m7 (rather than F#m then A)
