Your Ex-lover Is Dead

Tuning: Standard

Notes:

1) "God that was..." begins here --> * for verse 1, as does "This scar..." for verse 2.
"strange..." in verse 1 falls on the C chord, as does "fleck..." for verse 2.

2) Listen for the strumming, it's consistent for most of the song, but it does change.

3) Kelly i'm not sorry I met you. I'm not sorry it's over.

[Verse 1]
             C                  F
God that was strange to see you again
F          C                F
Introduced by a friend of a friend
F               C                      F
Smiled and said "yes I think we've met before"
F       C                     F
In that instant it started to pour
           F                    C
Captured a taxi despite all the rain
C           F                   C
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain
C               F                      C
And all of that time you thought I was sad
Continues after the ad
      C         F             C
I was trying to remember your name

[Verse 2]
               C                     F
This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin
F                  C                         F
You tried to reach deep but you couldn't get in
F              C                          F
And now you're outside me you see all the beauty
F               C           F
Repent all your sin .........
                 F                           C
It's nothing but time and a face that you'll lose
C          F                        C
I chose to feel it and you couldn't choose
C                F                           C
I'll write you a postcard, I'll send you the news
         C              F          G    F
From the house down the road, from real love
