This  place is a hole, but  I don't want to go.
I  wish we could stay  here forever alone.
This  time that we waste, but  i still love your taste.
 Don't let  him take my place, don't  just sit there.
Sometimes  I wish you would leave me.
Well  I'm not sick of you yet, that's  as good as it gets,
I'll  just hide it, or  i could slip into you,
Its  so easy to come back  into you.
oh,  ouh, ouh, oh, ouh,  oh, ouh, ouh
I  stand for awhile, and  waited for words,
Seen  but not heard and  struggled to try.
My  tongue's turning black, but  I'll take you back.
You're  still the best more  or less, I  guess.
I  guess.
 Don't you leave me,
Well  I'm not sick of  you yet,
That's  as good as it gets,
I'll  just try to hide  it, or I could slip into you,
Its  so easy to come  back into you.
It  hurts me to say that it  hurts me to stay.
And  it might be alright if  you go.
It  hurts me to say that I  want you to stay,
But  it might be alright if  you go.
So  leave me, well  I'm not sick of you yet,
That's  as good as it gets.
I'll  just try to hide it, or  I could slip into you,
It's  so easy to come  back into you.
oh,  ouh, ouh, oh, ouh,  oh, ouh, ouh
 ENDING
Sometimes  I think that the  bitter in you,
And  the quitter in me,
Is  the bitter in you and the  quitter in me.
The  bitter in you, and the  quitter in me,
Is  the bitter in you and the  quitter in me.
The  bitter in you, and the  quitter in me,
Is  the bitter in you and the  quitter in me,
Is, bet-ter than  the both of us.
 note: i think it sounds good ending with the G fading away, but the D could be
 played there at the end once. if you are in a band and want to add another guitar,
 there is another part to the song. it sounds good on the piano and should sound
 good with guitar. here is the tab:
e|--------------------------------|
B|------0---1----------0----1-----|
G|---0----0---0-----0----0----0---|
D|--------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|
 you would play this right after the first chord strum for everything and would
 play this at the oh, ouh, ouh, oh, ouh, oh, ouh, ouh at lease twice instead of
 playing the chords. when ever there is a silent part in the song (just the piano)
 you would play this. there is a rest before you play the next one. i put it up
 there twice but, you only play it once at some part. on the piano, you would play
 this with your right hand, would press the keys G,B,G,C,G. just repeat it. keep in
 mind, i did do this on acoustic guitar.
 go to my youtube channel: vevo895
 i'll have a video up soon of me explaining how to play this on guitar and piano.
 hope this helped! leave a comment letting me know if there is anything i need to
 change or you think a chord should be something else.
