[Verse 1]
F
I was your sailor, your demon, your lover, your overbearing
Am
Best friend hoping for some attention
F
I saw through your automatic heartache, and now I know
Am
That love is as love was, it's downhill from here...
[Chorus]
F C Am G Am F C G
Should I run a million miles away from every memory of you? (youuuuuuuuuu)
F C Am G Am F C G
Let that be a lesson to me, think not with my heart but with my head. (heaaaaaad)
Am F C G
No I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
Am F C G
No I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
Am F C G Am F C G
(No) I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
[Verse 2]
F
I was your mattress, your armchair, your TV, your everlasting
Am
Talk show host, mouthing "baby, you're wonderful"
F
I fell under your control, switch on switch off, robotic
Am
I lost every ounce of myself.
[Chorus]
F C Am G Am F C G
Should I run a million miles away from every memory of you?
F C Am G Am F C G
Let that be a lesson to me think not with my heart but with my head.
Am F C G
No I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
Am F C G
No I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
Am F C G Am F C G
(No) I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
[Outro]
Am F C G
No I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
Am F C G
No I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
Am F C G Am F C G
(No) I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
[Coda]
F
I was your sailor, your demon, your lover, your overbearing
Am
Best friend hoping for some attention
I was your sailor, your demon
Your lover, your overbearing best friend
Hoping for some attention
I saw through your automatic heartache
Now I know that love is as love was
It's downhill from here
Should I run a million miles
Away from every memory of you, you?
Let that be a lesson to me
Think not with my heart but with my head, oh
But I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
No, I never really had it in me, did I?
Said I never really had it in me, did I, did I, did I?
I was your armchair, your mattress
Your TV, your everlasting talk show host
Mouthing "Baby, you're wonderful"
I fell under your control
Switch on, switch off, robotic
And I lost every ounce of myself
Should I run a million miles
Away from every memory of you, you?
Let that be a lesson to me
Think not with my heart but with my head, oh
But I never really had it in me, did I, did I?
No, I never really had it in me, did I?
Said I never really had it in me, did I, did I, did I?
No, I never really had it in me, did I?
Said I never really had it in me, did I?
No, I never really had it in me, never really had it in me, never really had it in me did I, did I?

De-deh-ah
De-deh-ah
De-deh-ah-ah-oh
I was your sailor, your demon
Your lover, your overbearing best friend
Hoping for some attention
