Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x022xx sounds great
 F5 133xxx on acoustic guitar :P
 Vers:1
 lalalalalalalalalala.. :P
I  wrote her off for  the tenth  time today
And  practiced all the things  I would say
But  she came over I  lost my nerve
I  took her back and made  her dessert
Oh I  know I'm  being used
That's  okay man cause  I like  the abuse
Oh  I know  she's playing  with me
That's  okay cause  I've got no  self esteem
 Vers:2<-- the same chords has Vers:1
 We make plans to go out at night
 I wait till 2 then I turn out the light
 This rejection's got me so low
 If she keeps it up I just might tell her so
When  she's saying, oh,  that she wants  only me
 Then I wonder  why she sleeps  with my friends
When  she's saying, oh,  that I'm like  a disease
 Then I wonder  how much more  I can spend
Well  I guess I  should stick up  for myself
 But I really  think it's better  this way
 The more you suffer
The  more it shows  you really care
 Right? Yeah-eh-eh
 Vers:3
 Now I'll relate this little bit
 That happens more than I'd like to admit
 Late at night she knocks on my door
 She's drunk again and looking to score
 Oh I know I should say no but
 It's kind of hard when she's ready to go
 I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
 I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
 When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
 Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
 When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
 Then I wonder how much more I can spend
 Well I guess I should stick up for myself
 But I really think it's better this way
 The more you suffer
 The more it shows you really care
 Right? Yeah-eh-eh

Vers:2<-- the same chords has Vers:1
We make plans to go out at night
I wait till 2 then I turn out the light
This rejection's got me so low
If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

[D5]When she's [Bb5]saying, [F5]oh, that she w[C5]ants only [D5]me
Then I [Bb5]wonder why she [F5]sleeps with my [C5]friends

Right? Ye[G5]ah-e[C5]h-e[G]h  [G5]      [C5]         [G]

Vers:3
Now I'll relate this little bit
That happens more than I'd like to admit
Late at night she knocks on my door
She's drunk again and looking to score
Oh I know I should say no but
It's kind of hard when she's ready to go
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem

When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Well I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think it's better this way
The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
