These songs are all about you
And I'm telling everyone I'm doing fine without you
I hurt you but I helped you
You maybe got a lot of nerve
But I deserve some credit
Or at least an edit
Take out the part that breaks my heart
Makes me sound uncaring.
If you eliminate the swearing then I can show my mother
How you can go from one chord to another
G will turn to D,
You'll turn to me,
and you'll say!
You have done me wrong
I wrote these songs about it
She's aware it's all been done before
It's another song in this key yeah,
But this one's about me.
That's all the validity she needs
Her criticism's brutal,
But I don't really mind.
Yeah she's pt it out on vinyl,
But it's really hard to find.
Oh , tell me
G will turn to D
Will turn to me
And you'll say!
You have done me wrong
I wrote these songs about it
I wish I'd never taught her
How to play I knew she'd get me
I should have known
Now her hands are on the fret board,
In an unfamiliar way
And it's scaring me
She's aware it's all been done before
It's another song in this key, yeah
But this one's about me.
May not wanna hear the words
To G, when put with D
And if you take what you're shown,
Learn on your own,
then everything you do
Belongs to you
But know that you
Are on your own.
On your own... (repeat through fade)
