Capo 2
[D]Well the work ain't bad, hell, it p[G]ays the rent
And keeps my f[A]ool mind otherwise occupied till [D]day's end
And the o[G]vertime goes a g[A]ood way to a [D]drink or two or f[Bm]our
And I'd c[D]all to say I l[A]ove you, but I d[G]on't no [D]more
Well this beer ain't the best, but it works real cheap
And this old bar's bout as far from uptown as downtown can be
But if nothin else they know my name, and they don't close till four
And I'd call to say I love you but I don't no more
(Bridge)
It [G]ain't like I forgot your number or j[D]ust can't find the time
It ain't as [G]if I forgot the [A]way things used to [D]be
[G]But all the sweetest memories in this [D]world ain't worth this [Bm]lyin
[G]Pretending that I give a damn was n[A]ext for you and me
This life ain't that of Riley, but then his ain't mine
And though things are rarely black-and-white, some get clearer over time
Maybe once I thought we could beat the odds, though they've always won before
And I'd call to say I love you, but I don't no more
And I'd call to say I love you, but I don't no more
