One More Minute

D                        G        
Well I heard that you're leaving, 
D                  G
gonna leave me far behind,
B7                           Em  
'Cause you found a brand new 
         A                       D
lover, you decided that I'm not your
 kind.


G                     D         
So I pulled your name out of my 
G
Rolladex,
      C                         G
And I tore all your pictures in two,
      B7                       
And I burned down the malt shop 
       Em
where we used to go,
     A                       
Just because it reminds me of 
 D
you.....


C                 D              
That's right, you ain't gonna see
    G
 me crying,
C                 D              
I'm glad that you found somebody 
G
new,
           C             D     
'Cause I'd rather spend eternity 
         G                C
eating shards of broken glass,
     G              D           G
Than spend one more minute with you.


D                        G
I guess I may seem kinda bitter,
    D              G         
You got me feeling down in the 
  D
dumps,

           B7                      
'Cause I'm stranded all alone in 
  Em
the gas station of love,
      A                            
And I have to use the self-service 
D
pumps...


      C             D             
Oh so honey, let me help you with 
     G
that suitcase
    C           D                 
You ain't gonna break my heart in 
G
two
           C           
'Cause I'd rather get a 
 D                G             
hundred-thousand paper cuts on my 
   C
face,
     G              D         
Than spend one more minute with 
  G
you..


Em                    D          
I'd rather rip out my intestines 
       G
with a fork
C                                 
Than watch you going out with 
  G
other men
Em                 G            
I'd rather slam my fingers in a 
Em
door,
A                              
Again, and again, and again, and 
              D
again, and again

Oh can't you what I'm trying to say,
 darlin'


    C              D              
I'd rather have my blood sucked 
     G
out by leaches
         C                D       
Shove an ice-pick under a toe nail
    G
 or two
    C                    D
I'd rather clean all the bathrooms
                 G                
In Grand Central Station, with my 
C
tongue..
     G              D           G
Than spend one more minute with you


                     C          D 
Yes, I'd rather dive naked on a 
           G
huge pile of thumbtacks
            C          D          
Or stick my nostrils together with
       G
 Krazy-Glue
    C                D
I'd rather dive in a swimming pool 
filled with
G                  C
Double-edged razor blades
     G              D           Em
Than spend one more minute with you


           C                       
I'd rather rip my heart right out 
     D
of my ribcage with my bare hands
    G                              
And throw it on the floor and stomp
              C
 on it till I die....
     G              D         
Than spend one more minute with 
  G
you.....
