Tonalité : B major
Verse 1
G
I thought I'd surprise Kenna this afternoon,
C
Saturdays
I usually have to work all day.
G
But I got someone to cover
the second half of my shift.
Yesterday I bought us two
C
tickets to the game.
G
I drove home,
tried to park the car in the lot,
but a beat -up SUV was parked
C
in our rented space.
G
She was definitely home,
Am
Adim
but the front door was locked.
A chair squeaked
F#dim
when I put the key in the slot
G
When I came into the kitchen
they were rushin' to talk
C
Awkward like they hadn't
G
had a chance
C
to pick out a topic
G
She introduced me
but I knew exactly who he was
It was Ben who was always
C
playin' down at the club
G
For the last week his name
kept poppin' up here and there
C
He played every Thursday night
when Kenna worked the bar
G
When I joked that they were datin'
she would play with her hair
Adim
I found a CD tucked under
F
the seat in the car
G
I took his hand,
imagined I could smell the sex on it
C
By the time I got my jacket
on the rack he was gone
G
I pulled out the tickets
C
and put them on the table
Changed my shirt, grabbed my hat,
and put my jacket back on
G
She didn't say much
Bb
C
as we drove down to the field
I kept both hands up high
on the steering wheel
G
I said, you should be happy,
Cm
but I wasn't sure how I meant it
Adim
And she answered,
G
don't tell me how the fuck I should feel
D
C#
It started raining harder,
D
but we didn't try to leave
Dm
C#
The stands were stark empty,
Dm
but there wasn't room to breathe
C
Cm
I dumped a silver coffin
Ebm
D
with my shoulder on my knees
Dm
F
She didn't touch my back
like she would usually
D
C#
Used to hate football,
Dm
she said, you couldn't stand it
C#
But she wasn't saying it like good
D
to see her interests are expanding
Ebm
She was saying it like I was a boy,
Em
D
pretending to do mad things
Dm
F
A puddle formed around me
F#m
while she took the reins, standing
D
C#
We were far past the end of it,
D
and both of us could tell
C#
I wanted to stand and leave her,
but I wasn't feeling well
D
Ebm
I was disgusted with my self,
D
but I pretended not to be
Dm
F
I asked her if we could still
go out later and see a movie
D
C#
You used to say the movies
D
were way too overpriced
I brought you here
C#
D
cause I was trying to do something nice
Ebm
D
I know, I know, you should stop crying
Dm
F
I knew it was the rain,
Fm
F
but I pretended she was crying
Bb
She left, I stayed wet and old
Dm
Bb
Tryin' to rewind about
four years or so
Dm
What had I done
Bb
to turn a warm girl so cold?
Dm
Bb
All I could think was that
I'd done just as I was told
Dm
Bb
She wanted more stability,
she wanted more attention
Dm
Bb
And I just wanted to have
less tension between us
Dm
Bb
I told her I could change my whole life
If she'd be happy
Dm
Bb
when she said I'd never change
I called her with the fetus and then I did it
I put a knife in the thing I loved most
C
It was music that I burned at the stake
Bb
As a toast to the girl and the world
That I want to be a part
of maybe going back to school
is when I started to lose
I've given up everything
because everyone told me
A
it was the right thing to do
C
Dm
Bb
And it's been hard on me too,
very hard
D
Bb
Being 32 years old back in school
makes you feel like you've
Dm
got a giant scar
Bb
run ning through the center of your face
Dm
Bb
Any attempts to include you
make you feel out of place
Dm
Bb
Sure the professors love me,
we always share a laugh
Dm
But it's weird when you're
Bb
the only two laughing in class
Dm
I just didn't think
Bb
the age gap
would run so deep
Dm
Bb
And I thought she'd be ecstatic
that I'd turn a new leaf
But when she mentions my school,
she does it to bare teeth
And when I ask her if she's happy,
she says it's happy for me
But I did this for her,
so why are we falling apart?
What more could I sacrifice to Canada
than my art?
Even if the gift I try to give her is refused
C
I'm just a proof to this world
that I can always follow through
