Bass Intro
1.
A Bm7
You gave me a pet name
Dmaj7 Bm7
Which is not to say I liked it
A Bm7
We met at a party
Dmaj7 Bm7
Not to say I was invited
Cmaj7 Dmaj7
You say, love is just a lie.
Cmaj7 Dmaj7
But I can tell that you were lying
Pre-chorus
A Gadd9 Bm/F#
And we've almost figured out how we get along
F7 G7
And given time we'll find it strange to be alone
2.
A Bm7
You work in a hotel
Dmaj7 Bm7
At the magazine concession
A Bm7
Back in just five minutes
Dmaj7 Bm7
Reads the sign above your station
Cmaj7 Dmaj7
Slip your profits in a bag
Cmaj7 Dmaj7
And you're looking up to the hour hand
Pre-chorus
A Gadd9 Bm/F#
And we've almost figured out how we get along
F7 G7
And given time we'll find it strange to be alone and
Chorus
A C# D
You just forgot your one pet name for me,
A C# D
And all those promises you said you'd keep.
B D
But it's a lucky thing, because that sentimental stuff doesn't
D7
Suit you at all
-Bass Solo-
3.
A Bm7
Waiting at the bus stop
Dmaj7 Bm7
For just about an hour
A Bm7
Strategies for hangman
Dmaj7 Bm7
Cat's cradle, origami
Cmaj7 Dmaj7
You say I'm OK for a guy
Cmaj7 Dmaj7
But I can tell that you are lying
Pre-chorus
A Gadd9 Bm/F#
And we've almost figured out how we get along
F7 G7
And given time we'll find it strange to be alone and
Chorus
A C# D
You just forgot your one pet name for me,
A C# D
And all those promises you said you'd keep.
B D
But it's a lucky thing, because that sentimental stuff doesn't
A C# D
You just forgot your one pet name for me,
A C# D
And all those promises you said you'd keep.

But it's a lucky thing, because that sentimental stuff
D7
Doesn't suit you at all

I fixed up these chords to correct a few Bm's which should have
been B's and also to make the transcription more accurate by showing
the 7 and maj7 chords that are used in this song.
