On Love An Alternative Response To Almitras Request

 G
All the people who have told me
      Em7        D#m7    D7
That love will make me whole
          G                  Em
Love was with them in the moment
 Bm7       Am
Another mistake on my part
         C         B          G
I'm no savior in heart or in mind

[Verse 2]
 G
The deals people make and the love people trade
            Em7        D#m7     D7
Is this an art or a business venture?
          G                 Em7   Bm7
Is your contest one I can enter?
Am
I'm not expecting any love
           C              D7          G   XXXX
But just give me some fun in return

[Verse 3]
G
I don't need my words revised
                Em7        D#m7       D7
By all these blue-faced, red-penned writers
                 G                  Em7    Bm7
She lifts the weight, I feel much lighter
              Am             C
But is interaction lacking pain or passion
  B         G
Worth the time?

[Verse 4]
G                      Em
I need to find better ways
                    Bm7    Am
To fill all these empty chairs
                       C
I need some more disarray
                   B       G
I need lots more love to share
                        Em
My patience left me in May
                 Bm7       Am
I haven't heard from him since
                           C
But if you've got more to say
                B      G
I can tell him he's needed
                              Em
She's got some pretty new friends
                Bm7      Am
They make her angry sometimes
                          C
If they take her clothes again
              B        G
She is gonna lose her mind
                             Em
I don't think I should still be
                     Bm7   Am
concerned with her social life
                                C
But while she's clenching her teeth
                 B          G
My tongue will hide behind mine
