#Verse 1:
#
Don't pretend that you don't know me
If you mean to offend me
Then you're doing pretty well
And how convincingly you've shown me
That the love I thought was built to last
Is now an empty shell
Refrain:
Things can only get better
What's around the corner
Who can tell?
I'll build a little place just north of heaven
I'm kinda tired of living south of hell
Verse 2:
Don't assume you can ignore me
You'd best bite your lip in case I
Make it after all
And how contemptuously you've shown me
That all my aspirations
Were so paltry and so small
Bridge:
Some mother's talking 'bout Guns'n'Roses
As if I give a fuck
At best I think they suck
I'm too preoccupied with my memories
Not nonentities
I'm kinda tired of living south of hell
I'm kinda tired of living... C Em Am G F
