Dead Horse

Am
Every morning I wake up
                                 D
From a dream of you, holding me
Underwater (is that a dream or a memory?)
Am
Held my breath for a decade
                           D
Dyed my hair blue to match my lips
              C
Cool of me to try (pretty cool I'm still alive)

( G  A5 )

C                         D                   Bm
I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum
      C
Oh, I stayed with you too long
                D                  Bm
Skipping like a record, but I sang along
     C
To a silly little song
                                 D                   Bm
I said I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum
      C
Oh, I stayed with you too long
                D                  Bm
Skipping like a record, but I sang along
         C
A shitty never-ending song

Am                            A
Sometimes it's good to be the bigger person
           D                 C
But I'm so small I can't compare
                         D
And after all, it's only fair, yeah
Am                     G Am                  D
I got what I deserved, I was the other woman first
                    C
Other others on the line
But I kept trying to make it work

C                         D                   Bm
I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum
      C
Oh, I stayed with you too long
                D                  Bm
Skipping like a record, but I sang along
     C
To a silly little song
                                 D                   Bm
I said I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum
      C
Oh, I stayed with you too long
                D                  Bm
Skipping like a record, but I sang along
         C
A shitty never-ending song

Am              Em                D   G
When I said goodbye, I hope you cried
Am              G                 D   G
When I said goodbye, I hope you cried
A                                 D   G
When I said goodbye, I hope you cried
A
When I said goodbye, I hope you cried
