[Verse 1]
C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7
Guess that it was bound to happen; was just a matter of time
C Am Dm C C/B Am
But now I've come to my decision, And it's a-one of the painful kind
Am/G F G Am Am/G
'Cause now it seems that you wanted a martyr,
F C/E Dm G7
Just a regular guy wouldn't do
C C/B Am Dm G7 C C7
But baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you.
[Verse 2]
C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7
Yes I really got to hand it to you, 'cause girl, you really tried
C Am Dm G7
But for every time that we spent laughin'
C C/B Am Am/G
There were two times that I cried.
F G Am Am/G
And you were tryin' to make me your martyr
F C Dm G7
And that's the one thing I just couldn't do
C C/B Am Dm G7 C C7
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you.
[Chorus]
F G Am Em
'Cause tables are meant for turnin',
F C Dm G7
And people are bound to change
F G Am Em
And bridges are meant for burnin',
F C Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
When the people and memories they just aren't the same
[Verse 3]
C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7
So I'll hope that you can find another who can take what I could not
C Am Dm G7 C C/B Am Am/G
He'll have to be a super guy or maybe a super god
F G Am Am/G
'Cause I never was much of a martyr before
F C/E Dm G7
And I ain't 'bout to start nothin' new
C C/B Am Dm G7 C
And baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you.
