CAPO: 2nd Fret
 
 
 
INTRO:
G  C  G  C
 
G
It's complicated, technically I'm certified
  C
A walking declaration, of everything I couldn't get right
G
Time is just an anchor, but seven years I think I am right
C
Now you've changed your number, it's like a noose around my life
 
 
PRE-CHORUS:
Em
Every pill I took in vain
C
Every meal for you I made
Am                       C   D
Every penny I put away
 
 
CHORUS:
C                   G
Asking for flowers
        D                Am
Is like asking you to be nice
      Em                  C
Don't tell me you are too tired
Am                  C       G         C   G   C
Ten years I've been working nights
 
 
   G
My life is like a picture left out too long in the sun
        C
Now I'm trying to remember all the faces of the names I've loved
    G
And all that's left of me now is a cigarette burning bright
      C
And a fading memory of all the things I tried to get right
 
 
PRE-CHORUS:
Em
Every pill I took in vain
C
Every meal for you I made
Am                           C   D
Every plan I tried to make
 
 
CHORUS:
C                   G
Asking for flowers
        D                Am
Is like asking you to be nice
      Em                  C
Don't tell me you are too tired
Am                  C       G
Ten years I've been working nights
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL:
C   G   C   Em   C   Am   C
 
 
PRE-CHORUS:
Em
Every pill I took in vain
C
Every meal for you I made
Am
Every bill I went and paid
C
Every card I signed my name
Em
Every time I poured my heart out
C
Every threat you made to move out
Am
Every cruel word you let just slip out
C                                      Em
Every cruel word you let just slip out____

Don't tell me you are too tired
Am                  C       G
Ten years I've been working nights
