Version 1
[Intro]
C G C G C G C D
[Verse 1]
C G
I don't want to get over you. I guess I could take
C G C G C
a sleeping pill and sleep at will and not have to
D
go through what I go through. I guess I should take
C G C G C D
Prozac, right, and just smile all night at somebody new,
Am G/B C D
Somebody not too bright but sweet and kind who would
Am G/B C D Am G/B C D
try to get you off my mind. I could leave this agony behind
[Chorus]
C D C D
which is just what I'd do if I wanted to, but I don't
C G
want to get over you
[Instrumental]
C G C G C D
[Verse 2]
C G
cause I don't want to get over love.
C G C G
I could listen to my therapist, pretend you don't exist
C D
and not have to dream of what I dream of; I could listen
C G C G C D
to all my friends and go out again and pretend it's enough,
Am G/B C D Am
or I could make a career of being blue - I could dress
G/B C D Am G/B C
in black and read Camus, smoke clove cigarettes and drink
[Chorus]
D C D C D
vermouth like I was 17, wouldn't that be a scream but I
C G
don't want to get over you.
