C
I used to be nobody's somebody
Wandered the streets, looking for company
Am                   F                C  G
That I could keep so I didn't sleep alone.
C
Then I met you, took me to places that
I never knew
                          Am
You had a face that could light up a room
     F                          C  G
But darkness lives through the soul.

    F
You used to stay at my place
         G
Now you just stay on my mind
    Am                            G
We had a good run, baby, but you just can't
outrun time
        F                                   G
And I know it's for the best, but still it hurts

Chorus:
            C
I used to be
                 Am
Nobody's somebody
                                      F
'Til you put your hands around my body
           G                        Am
I really thought I was meant to be yours
                       C
Now all that's left of
                        Am
You on me is that Tommy
yellow T-shirt
                               F
I'm pretty sure that you got me
              G                    Am
Now I don't know, maybe it's even worse
Being somebody's nobody

I still haven't got shades for that window
And your makeup stains, still haunt my pillow
Some things never change
And some things, well, they change you, ooh (Oh)

Yeah, you used to stay at my place,
now you just stay on my mind
We had a good run, baby,
but you just can't outrun time
And I know it's for the best,
but still it hurts (Yeah)

Chorus

F                                              G
I don't wanna start with, start with somebody new
She could be perfect, but the problem is she'll
         Am
never be you
I don't wanna start with, start with
Somebody new, no, I don't wanna do it
F                                              G
I don't wanna start with, start with somebody new
She could be perfect but the problem is
                 Am
she'll never be you
I don't wanna start with, start with
Somebody new, no, I don't wanna do it

     Am                          G
It's for the best, but still it really
fucking hurts
        Am                                    G
Yeah, I know it's for the best, but still it really
fucking hurts
       Am                                   G
And I know it's for the best, but still it really
fucking hurts
         Am
Yeah, I know it's for the best, but still it really
fucking hurts (I don't wanna do it)
