D-DU-UDU
I know I don't want her, I swear that's a fact
But the thought of somebody else rubbing her back
Just kills me
Oh, it kills me
I know she don't love me, I know she ain't home
So why in the hell do I pick up this phone
And call her?
Why do I call her?
I've dropped by her momma's stoned out of my mind
Just to hear that it's over from her one more time
As if I didn't see that red Chevy not slowing down
Loaded down and rolling down our road
Yeah, she's already left
So why can't I leave her alone
I've wrote her letters signed I was a fool
She wrote me back saying go find a stool
And drink one
Like you've always done
So that's what I did 'cause that's what I do
Backsliding, hiding away from the truth
'Til the tears run
Oh, here comes one
Interlude thingy
I know I don't want her, I swear that's a fact
G *No strum
But the thought of somebody else rubbing her back
No strum* D
Just kills me
