Tears Over Beers - Modern Baseball
Tuning: C, G C E A
[Verse 1]
When I was jus
t a boy, we'll
call it 15 or
so,
I found myself
annoyed by a
syndrome of so
rts in my bone
s
That girl who'
s next to me,
she found hers
elf bored to t
ears
She realized t
hat if she wan
ted conversati
on, she's out
of luck for th
ree
more years
x2
[Verse 2]
When I moved a
way from home,
100 miles or
so,
I knew a chang
e had grown in
side my awkwar
dly long limbs
and bones
That girl who'
s next to me,
she's friendly
and thoughtfu
l and quite aw
fully pretty,
But all she ha
s to say is a
meat head-them
ed monologue o
n why Brad ran
away
[Chorus]
She said, "All
I can hope fo
r is for me to
get better,
because all I
can take is no
more.
I'll win him b
ack again, we'
ll be lovers,
best friends.
He won't need
no other woman
like he did w
ay back when h
e was with me.
He needed more
than me
I'm friendly a
nd thoughtful
and quite awfu
lly pretty,
But he needed
more than me."
[Bridge]
When I felt th
at I should le
ave, we'll cal
l it midnight
or so,
I found myself
annoyed by a
syndrome of so
rts in her bon
es
That girl who'
s next to me,
she don't know
her worth in
this town,
because her fa
ce starts to s
hine when that
meat head beh
ind me
Is grinning as
he's checking
her out
[Chorus]
I said, "All I
can hope for
is for you to
get better,
Because all I
can take is no
more.
I'll hide wher
e I can, away
from you and y
our friends,
leaking tears
over beers onc
e again.
leaking tears
over beers onc
e again.
leaking tears
over beers onc
e again."
