[Intro]
Am7 Cmaj7 F7 Emaj7
(Bossa Nova Style)
[Verse 1]
Am7
I don’t want no boyfriend
Cmaj7
I don’t want no one night stand
F7 Emaj7
I’ve never been the type to say I’m lonely when I am
Am7 Cmaj7
I don’t want no honey calling me up after 2
F7 Emaj7
I don’t want nobody less that somebody is you
[Chorus]
Am7
And here I stand across a river of regret
Cmaj7
A mountain of disrespect
F7
I’d say I’m sorry a thousand times
Emaj7
But I know it wouldn’t change your mind
Am7
My friends ask why
Cmaj7
Should I apologize?
F7
When you hurt me that night
Emaj7
But I know you tried to make it right
Am7 Cmaj7
I know you tried, I know you tried
F7
But apart of me just died
Emaj7
[Verse 2]
Am7 Cmaj7
Now I don’t trust my buddies when they say that they’re my friends
F7 Emaj7
Cuz men will say they love u then they hurt you in the end
Am7 Cmaj7
Now I find distractions to get you out my head
F7 Emaj7
I want you in my life but I don’t want us to pretend
[Chorus]
Am7
And here I stand across a river of regret
Cmaj7
A mountain of disrespect
F7
I’d say I’m sorry a thousand times
Emaj7
But I know it wouldn’t change your mind
Am7
My friends ask why
Cmaj7
Should I apologize?
F7
When you hurt me that night
Emaj7
But I know you tried to make it right

I know you tried, I know you tried
F7
But apart of me just died

Hate being desperate it’s absurd
