 (still )
 How do you find the guy around here
 I've already sped  through a year
 I've already  tried all the campus  bars at night
 and even  cried alone at  the diner
Somewhere  there's a prince
 and he likes  to strike me down
 I know  I'm not the reason
 I am  just the one he found
And  all these other cowards,
 they're not hard  to boss around
 you just get  them in your arms
 and you hold  them till they drown
 I walked  back to the cottage with no hand  around my wrist
 when I heard  the sound of vodka  bottles breaking
 I went  out to the clearing, he was  standing with a fist
 but I couldn't  see the face  that he  was making
 He said  make me some dinner
 I said "I thought  you'd never ask"
 he was standing  in my kitchen
 I was filling  up his glass
 He finally  started screaming
 and pointing  to the bed
 he wanted  me to kill  him
 but I took  his life instead
 Ugly moments
 strung together
 and the poor guy couldn't even find his temper
 And he could  no longer make  me cry
 I guess the boss inside  of him died
 I guess the boss inside  of him died
 I guess the boss inside  of him died

(still [Am])          [G]
How do you find the guy around here
I've [F]already [E]sped through a [Am]year
I've [G]already tried all the [Am]campus bars at night
and [G]even cried [F]alone [E]at the [Am]diner

[F]Somewhere there's a prince
and he [G]likes to strike me down
I [Am]know I'm not the [C]reason
I am[G] just the one he found

[F]And all these other cowards,
they're not [G]hard to boss around
you just [Am]get them in your [C]arms
and you [G]hold them till they [F]drown

I [Am]walked back to the cottage with no [G]hand around my wrist
when I [F]heard the sound of [E]vodka bottles [Am]breaking
I [G]went out to the clearing, he was[Am] standing with a fist
but I [G]couldn't see the [F]face that [E]he was [Am]making

He [F]said make me some dinner
I said "I [G]thought you'd never ask"

Ugly [F]moments
strung [G]together
and the poor guy couldn't even find his [F]temper

And he [F]could no longer [E]make me [Am]cry
I guess the [F]boss [E]inside of him [Am]died
I guess the [F]boss [E]inside of him [Am]died
I guess the [F]boss [E]inside of him [Am]died
