(Intro) C  ( C Dm Gm F ) (2x)   C 

  C                                                 Am 
Wretched, look at me, I've lost it, melting on the table 
                     F 
In parking lots and markets 
         C                                                   Am 
I can't help it, I love you like a starfish loves the salty water 
                F        C 
Like a selfish daughter 

    Am                         F 
Yet I wrote the words to the swan song 
    C               F 
The author of the wrong 
       Am                     F 
And I said what I said and I meant it 
     C        F      C Dm 
But now I regret it 

 C                                               Am 
Foolish, how was I so careless, pawning off my treasure, 
                F 
The envy of an heiress 
        C                                               Am 
Now my dollars are crumbled in my pocket, how can I reclaim it? 
                   F        C 
What if someone's got it? 

     Am                         F 
When I wrote the words to the swan song 
    C               F 
The author of the wrong 
    Am                        F 
And I said what I said and I meant it 
     C        F 
But now I regret it 

( C  Dm  Gm  F ) (2x) 

     Gm                   Bb             F 
How could the world have turned so ugly 
           Bb 
I am dying 
                     Gm 
Could you touch me again? 
           C    F 
Touch me again 

     Am                         F 
When I wrote the words to the swan song 
    C               F 
The author of the wrong 
    Am                        F 
And I said what I said and I meant it 
     C        F 
But now I regret it
