Intro: Em A7 }x2 
   
Em  A7
I got the letter you left under my door  
Knocked me on my ass to the floor  
Never knew two words could take such a bite  
It said, "Dear Jon, Hello. Goodbye."  
  
Em  A7
I saw your car parked outside Motel Cascade  
Saw two shadows go to town on the shade  
I can't believe my own lyin' eyes, oh my  
It better be your girlfriend I saw going down some other guy  
   
B                           A 
You told me you loved me, 'til death do us part 
B                                          D 
So tell me there's a tombstone where there used to be a heart   
   
             Em  
You said you couldn't live without me 
   A 
So why aren't you dead? 
           Em                       A 
Instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bed 
        Em                           B 
There's just one thing that I can't get through my head 
             A 
You said you couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?

I cut your face out of our old photographs  
And all the junk you left behind's in the trash  
Well, I hoped you were a goner for sure  
Well, there's been a resurrection, yeah, a miracle cure  
   
B               A 
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust 
       B                          D 
If you can't trust the livin' baby who can you trust?

   A 
So why aren't you dead? 
           Em                       A 
Instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bed 
        Em                           B 
There's just one thing that I can't get through my head 
             A

              Gm                          C 
Instead of laying you out I'm laying down on the line 
     Gm                              D
