Strum
D-DU-UDU
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
  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
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
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
