Song: "You Cost Me Too Much" (acoustic demo)
Artist: Gin Blossoms
///Play around with the little finger on the D chords; he does a lot of switching
around between the Dmajor and the Dsus4. Also, the C to G progression in the intro
and the ends of the choruses is just a quick downbeat on the C and then right back
to the G.///
INTRO: G G C G G C G G C G
D G
I could fall asleep for you, my girl
C
But it's not enough
D G
For the scenes of your last visit
C
Lie buried in the dust
D G
If I don't fall in love with you, my girl
C
Please understand
D G
I'll go find another county
C
And leave it in the end
G D
I've seen forty-seven pictures
C D
All with you upon the face
Em D
From the noise I'm making running
C D
Is a secondary pace
G D
From the scenes of your last visit
C D
I still feel it where we touch
Em D G C G
Where you cost me too much
Oh, the time I spent with you, my girl
Was all in vain
Waiting out the rapids
You can't escape the pain
And if I fall in love with you, my girl
It'll never end
And the sky will likely open
Raining holocaust and zen
At the west side of the forest
On a highway in the sun
Stands a pointless individual
Who knows his time has come
Though I know it's nothing funny
I'm still howling like a lush
'Cause you cost me too much
D G
It's the same in here
D G
Nothing's changed yet, my dear
Em
Oh, if I had known to know you well
D7 G C G C G
Lock us up in a sinner's hell for days
If I don't fall in love with you, my girl
Please understand
I'll go find another city
And leave it in the end
And if I run away with you, my girl
Please try to see
I'll do all I can to please you
But I don't expect you'll be
On the highest roof around me
Where I'm feeling pretty dumb
I scan on the horizon
For other dumbshits as they come
I'm growing older faster
Still howling like a lush
Em D
'Cause you cost me
Em D
You cost me
Em D G C G
You cost me too much
