The Apartment

[First Part]

Gm
  I had my suspicions and you had 
your own
A thousand dirty dishes and a 
      Cm
broken home
Back when we started before the 
 F
apartment, hey now
Gm
  I know you won’t admit it but you 
had to know

I know it’s hard to quit it, hard to
 let it go
Gm
  As hard as we’ve fallen, gonna hit
 the floor
F
  Lay down, lay down
    Gm
I know, things will get harder

I know, I’ve lost my manners
     Cm                         F
If so, like it or not I speak from 
the heart

[Chorus]

              Gm               F  
Yeah, you see I forgot how to hold
       Eb
 your hand
                       F
Forgot how to be your man
              Eb     D            
Hope that you understand me when I
  Gm
 say

             F   Eb               
I needed to be alone, needed some 
          F
time to grow
          Eb  D             Gm
This will be better for us both

[Second Part]

Gm
  I know the feeling and it hasn’t 
caught you by surprise
You’ve heard it from your friends a 
         Cm
million times
Mothers to daughters, fathers to 
 F
sons

Lay down, lay down
Gm
  Won’t let it get the best of me

No, I don’t need no sympathy
      Cm
I’ve got to move now, yeah
F
  Move out, move out

[Pre-Chorus]

    Gm
I know, things will get harder

I know, I’ve lost my manners
    Cm                             
If so, like it or not I speak from 
      F
the heart

[Chorus]

              Gm               F  
Yeah, you see I forgot how to hold
       Eb
 your hand
              Gm       F
Forgot how to be your man
              Eb     D            
Hope that you understand me when I
  Gm
 say
             F   Eb               
I needed to be alone, needed some 
          F
time to grow
          Eb  D             Gm
This will be better for us both
