I got the letter you left under my door

Knocked me on my ass to the floor

Never knew two words could take such a bite

It said, “Dear Jon, Hello. Goodbye.”


(Em  A7)
I saw your car parked outside Motel Cascade

Saw two shadows go to town on the shade

I can’t believe my own lyin’ eyes, oh my

It better be your girlfriend I saw going down some other guy

You told me you loved me, 'til death do us part
B                                          D
So tell me there’s a tombstone where there used to be a heart

You said you couldn’t live without me
   A
So why aren’t you dead?
           Em                       A
Instead of six feet under you’re in someone else’s bed
        Em                           B
There’s just one thing that I can’t get through my head
             A
You said you couldn’t live without me so why aren’t you dead?

I cut your face out of our old photographs

And all the junk you left behind’s in the trash

Well, I hoped you were a goner for sure

Well, there’s been a resurrection, yeah, a miracle cure

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

If you can’t trust the livin’ baby who can you trust?
