Flake

(Dm)I know she said, "It's alright.

(Bb)You will make it up next time."

(Dm)I know she knows it's not right.

(Bb)There ain't no use in lyin'.

Well, (Dm)maybe she thinks I know somethin',

maybe, (Bb)maybe she thinks it's fine.

(F)Or (Dm)maybe she knows somethin' I don't.

I'm so, (Bb)I'm so tired,

(C)I'm so tired of tryin'.

(F)It seems to me that maybe

(Dm)it pretty much always means no.

So don't tell me you (C)might just let it (F)go.

(F)But often times we're lazy.

(Dm)It seems to stand in my way,

'cause (Bb)no one, no, not no one likes to be let down.

(Dm)I know she loves the sunrise,

(Bb)no longer sees it with her (F)sleeping eyes,

(Dm)and I know that when she said she's (F)gonna try.

Well, it might not work because of other ties.

(Dm)And I know she usu'ly has some (F)other ties.

And (Bb)I wouldn't wanna break 'em (F)now,

I wouldn't wanna break 'em.

(Dm)Maybe she'll help me (F)to untie this,

(Bb)but until then, well,

(C)I'm gonna have to lie, too.

(F)It seems to me that maybe

(Dm)it pretty much always means no.

So don't tell me you (C)might just let it (F)go.

(F)The harder that you try, baby,

the harder you'll fall,

even with all the money in the whole wide world.

Please, please, please don't pass me,

please, please, please don't pass me,

please please, please don't pass me by.

Ev'rything you know about me, now baby,

you're gonna have to change.

You're gonna call it by a brandnew name.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, please, please, please don't drag me,

please, please, please don't drag me,

please, please, please don't drag me down.
