[Verse]
     G                C           G           C
They stuck you in the dirt, while I was still away
  G                       C                   G      C
Nobody had the decency to tell me about it anyways
        G                  C         G                C
Well, I guess it's for the best they laid you down to rest
             G                C               G           C
Without some wreck like me to ruin things and turn into a mess

[Verse]
   G               C                G                  C
I remember when we ran away and the car we stole broke down
           G            C            G           C (Palm Mute)
Along some dusty desert highway with nobody else around
          G                 C             G              C
And so we hitched a ride to Reno, but the ring I got you wouldn't fit
        G            C               G                   C
And the minister got drunk before we laughed 'til we got sick

[Chorus]
                 Am
And of course, I know you could have done much better
      C                     D             G      C
And I know that I must have been your bad habit
            G      C
Some rotten man.
         G         C
Nobody's savior.
            G      C

[Verse]
          G                    C
I haven't slept the same since you've been gone
    G                    C
And when I do sleep, the nightmares come
     G               C               G               C
This hell I live in hasn't been the same without you here
    G                    C               G              C
Our daughter still won't speak to me. My letters aren't returned at all
  G                 C                 G       C
I can't believe the mess I've made of things

[Chorus]
                 Am
And of course, I know you could have done much better
      C                     D                       G      C
And I know that I must have been a real fuckin' nightmare
            G      C
Some rotten man.
         G         C
Nobody's savior.
