lyrics:
-------
G Em
Jaimme's got a girl
G Em
don't think things gonna be the same
G Em
he ain't coming out and drinking tonight
Cadd9 Cma7 Cadd9
I think he's gonna change his name
he can't work it out
he ain't punching walls anymore
I ain't gonna wake up now
and find you on my floor
G
game's a game
A7
don't wanna be the same
C
but you sure ain't like you were yesterday
Em Em7 G
just go on and try ... yeah .....
and if it's true
it just ain't my place to say
but you sure ain't like you were yesterday
just go on and try ... yeah .....
fortune sounds dead
pocket sure feels tight
things I promised not to do with you today
sure need to deny
it's all working out
just like they said it would be
you ain't gonna fall on my floor
now on it's just sweet dreams
