Sugar Coat

C    Em    Am    F


[Verse 1]
C
I turn the bathroom light on

To take my make up off
F
Look at myself in the eye

I wonder why I wear it anyway
C
Another car drives by

I wonder where you are
F
The kids are all in bed

And everything but you is in its 
place
Dm                            F
From the street view lookin' in
                    Dm
It's pretty as a picture
                F
Our home sweet home


[Chorus]
C
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Em
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Am
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
F
But someone like me never will
C
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
Em
I just smile with a lump in my 
throat

Sometimes I wish I could bear it
     F

coat


[Verse 2]
C
Passed down from my mom

She wore it so well
F
She'd rest it on my shoulders

Says it's colder out there than you 
think
Dm                     F
Would I recognize myself
               Dm
Would anybody else?

If I took the damn thing off
     F
And burned it up


[Chorus]
C
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Em
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Am
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
F
But someone like me never will
C
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
Em
I just smile with a lump in my 
throat
Am
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
     F                             
And didn't have to wear this sugar

coat
Em                   Am    F
Oh, this damn sugar coat


[Bridge]
    Dm                           
And one of these nights I'll meet 
              F
you in the driveway
                       Dm
And tell you to go to hell
       F
Go to hell


[Chorus]
C
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Em
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Am
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
F
But someone like me never will

Sometimes I hardly can stand it
Em
I just smile with a lump in my 
throat
Am
Sometimes I wish I could bear it

coat
                 Am    F
This damn sugar coat
                 C     Em
Oh, this sugar coat
                 Am    F
This damn sugar coat
