** Intro: (x2) Well that's how it is when it's over and done All bets are off and we both go running for cover Blaming each other Yeah the grapevine will hum with the fiction or fact Gets kinda messy in the aftermath of a meltdown It's always a small small town You can doctor the spin when you tell all your friends But you can't say that I didn't love you Does it make me a jerk cause it just didn't work When you can't say that I didn't love you There were some things we could not overcome But love or the lack of it never was one You can put a new face on that old twist of fate But deep down inside you can't say that I didn't love you Now it's only normal to criticize How it all went down cause the tension's running high And we say things That we don't mean But that doesn't change last summer and fall If that wasn't love then what do you call September Do you remember You can doctor the spin when you tell all your friends But you can't say that I didn't love you Does it make me a jerk cause it just didn't work When you can't say that I didn't love you There were some things we could not overcome But love or the lack of it never was one You can put a new face on that old twist of fate But deep down inside you can't say that I didn't love you Instrumental: (x4) There were some things we could not overcome But love or the lack of it never was one You can doctor the spin when you tell all your friends But you can't say that I didn't love you Does it make me a jerk cause it just didn't work When you can't say that I didn't love you There were some things we could not overcome But love or the lack of it never was one You can put a new face on that old twist of fate But deep down inside you can't say that I didn't love you Outro: (repeat to fade with ad-lib) Chords: = x32010 = xx0232 = 022000 = 320003
