Intro: A

Verse:
           A
You do not like us
                      A 
Cause your girlfriend likely does
             A  
And all your friends agree
            A  
On her soft-spot for me
             A
I'll have my hard hands
         A                         A A  
Over her soft spots soon, you will see
           A                      A 
And if you want a list of all her favourite bits
              A  
The next time I am free
            A  
Quite comprehensively
        A                       A              A A  
I will scrawl them all down for you as an apology
             A                               A 
Tell her the times we shared that broke have been repaired
           A                        A  
Cinders of our old jokes have once again been stoked
           A                   A                    A          A  
But with a different girl, funnier now they've been rehearsed

Pre-chorus:
    A                        A 
All night hung on your every word
             Gbm                E
'til we were interrupted by the birds singing
 Gbm
"Oh your mask is slipping
E
Oh your mask is slipping."

Chorus:
D
Songs I've written about your girlfriend
         Bm
Are just psalms of spite since it came to an end
        A                          Gbm
Cause I never made her smile like that
        A                           Gbm
And she never made me smile right back
           A                            Gbm
Although I always made her purr like a cat
           A                           Gbm
She said I never made her smile like that

Interlude: A

Verse:
                A                            A 
She stubbed her home club's crest on me with cigarettes
             A                         A  
a swift that matched the bird upon her football shirt
          A                       A                      A       A  
She would lift the hem, she would wear that thing like a skirt
              A                      A 
The last time I was there she let me wear her clothes
            A                      A  
She painted my lips red so that we both ensured
           A              A                              A         A  
I kiss her every inch, my god the girl looked like she'd burned

Pre-chorus:
    A                        A 
All night hung on your every word
             Gbm                E
'til we were interrupted by the birds singing
 Gbm
"Oh your mask is slipping
E
Oh your mask is slipping."

Chorus:
D
Songs I've written about your girlfriend
         Bm
Are just psalms of spite since it came to an end
          A
All these songs I've written about your girlfriend
         B                     E
Are just killing time while my heart is on the mend
        A                          Gbm
Cause I never made her smile like that
        A                           Gbm
And she never made me smile right back
           A                            Gbm
Although I always made her purr like a cat
           A                           Gbm
She said I never made her smile like that
