[Verse 1]
A                                           D
  I really care a lot, although I look like I do not
      E                              A
Since I was shot, there's nobody but you
                                          D
I know I look blasé, partying is what the papers say
                  E                            A
At dinner I'm the one who paid, for a nobody like you

[Chorus 1]
A                               D
  Nobody but you, a nobody like you-ou
      E                                A
Since I got shot, there's nobody but you

[Verse 2]
A                                                   D
  Won't you decorate my house? I'll sit there quiet as a mouse
              E                                   A
You know me I like to look a lot, at nobody but you
                                                         D
I'll hold your hand and slap my face, I'll tickle you to your disgrace
                       E                            A
Won't you put me in my proper place?  A nobody like you

[Verse 3]
A                                                   D
  Sundays I pray a lot, I'd like to wind you up and paint your clock
                  E                           A
I want to be what I am not, for a nobody like you
                                                      D
The bullet split my spleen and lung, the doctors said I was gone
                     E                              A
Inside I've got some shattered bone, for nobody but you

[Chorus 2]
A                             D
  Nobody but you, nobody like you
E                              A
Shattered bone, for nobody but you

[Verse 4]
A                                                                   D
  I'm still not sure I didn't die, and if I'm dreaming I still have bad pains inside
                  E                            A
I know I'll never be a bride, to nobody like you
                                                   D
I wish I had a stronger chin, my skin was good, my nose was thin
                         E                                 A
This is no movie I'd ask to be in, with a nobody like you

[Outro]
A                                D
  Nobody like you, a nobody like you
E            N.C.
All my life,  it's been nobodies like you
