[Verse 1]
C         E7      Am7               F   
I was the belle of   the Governor's Ball
G             E7      Am7               F   
Hiding in the bathroom   like Shelley Duvall
C         E7       Am7               F  
You had a nosebleed,  you were in my way
   G             E7     Am7      F    
And you didn't remind me   of anything

[Chorus]
D7 C             F           D7         F       
So let's see how long we can go without touching
Am7           G          F     
Why don't you sing me to sleep?
       C           F        D7          F      
I know you'd never actually think about jumping
Am7 G         C E7 Am7 F
But do it for me

[Instrumental]
C E7 Am7 F

[Verse 2]
C             E7         Am7        F   
Two kids in a trench coat   living alone
G        E7         Am7     F   
I was too  happy to feel at home
C          E7          Am7            F      
Dancing ourselves clean   late New Year's Eve
C            E7    Am7           F                                                    
You deserved better,  you wanted me (Six, five, four, three, two, one, Happy New Year)

[Chorus]
   C             F           D7         F      
So let's see how long we can go without talking
Am7            G          F    
Watching me pretending to sleep
C           F    D7             F      
I'm next to you, you're next to nothing
    Am7           G           F    
You promised that you'd never leave
    G#           G7        Cm
But maybe you'll do it for me

[Bridge]
      Bb   Eb       G#  
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Cm             Bb          
(Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Eb         G   
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
     C             F         D7          F       
Now, let's see how far I can run without stopping
    Am7        G      F     
And she can pretend to be me
      C           F           D7          F    
Since she took my place in my bed on that stage
Am7        G        F    
I have not lost any sleep
Am7     G           D F 
Being myself wasn't easy
Am7  G      F
Do it for me
