Dead Horse

( C  B9-  Bm ) 

Sorry, I was in a depression 
But I'm trying to come out of it now 

Intro Am  Bm  Em  C  Am 

Gm   Am        Gm   Am 
Every morning I wake up 
Gm   Am        Gm   Am         C  D  C   
From a dream of you, holding me 
D    C   D            C       D 
Underwater (is that a dream or a memory?) 
Gm   Am             Gm   Am 
Held my breath for a decade 
Gm   Am      Gm    Am         C   D  
Dyed my hair blue to match my lips 
C    D        C  D        C       D           Gm 
Cool of me to try (pretty cool I'm still alive) 

  C                        D                  Bm 
I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum 
      C  
Oh, I stayed with you too long 
C                     D          Bm 
Skipping like a record, I sang along 
     C                 
To a silly little song 
          C                       D                  Bm  
I said I beat it like a dead horse, I beat it like a drum 
      C 
Oh, I stayed with you too long 
C                     D          Bm 
Skipping like a record, I sang along 
         C 
A shitty never-ending song 

Gm   Am       Gm      Am     Gm    Am     Gm  Am 
Sometimes its good to be the bigger person 
           C       D        C   D 
But I'm so small I can't compare 
           C       D      C  D 
And after all, it's only fair, yeah 
Gm  Am      Gm   Am    Gm  Am       Gm    Am        C  D  
I got what I deserved, I was the other woman first 
      C    D        C   
Other others on the line 
    D      C        D         
But I kept trying to make it work 

  C                        D                  Bm
