My Maudlin Career

(intro 2x) D  Em

    D
You kissed me on the forehead
          Em
Now these kisses give me consussion
D
We were love at first sight
         Em
Now this crush is crushing
  F#m                                              Em
I retraced your steps through the city of romance lazily
  F#m
I took to the desert with your harshest words
         Em
And they saved me

     D                        Em
I'll bail you out again; I've got the readies
    D                         Em
I'm not a child; I know we're not going steady
     F#m
Your pain's gigantic
                       Em
But not as big as your ego
  F#m
I promise not to abandon you
              Em
Please let me go

(interlúdio 2x) D  Em

  D
I harbored worried feelings
               Em
Like they were worth protecting
D
You say I'm too kind and sentimental
               Em
Like you could catch affection
        F#m
In your eyes there's a sadness enough
                   Em
To kill the both of us
          F#m
Are those eyes overrated?
                                Em
They make me want to give up on love

      D
I'll brace myself for the loneliness
            Em
Say hello to feeling that I detest
     D
This maudlin carrer must come to an end
        Em
I don't want to be sad again
      D
This maudlin career must come to an end
        Em
I don't want to be sad again
      D
This maudlin career must come to an end
        Em
I don't want to be sad again

(interlúdio 2x)  F#m   Em

      D
This maudlin career must come to an end
        Em
I don't want to be sad again
      D
This maudlin career must come to an end
        Em
I don't want to be sad again
