Intro: A, E, A, E

A
It's a green-striped sheet Lifted from me
        B                                 A
I am free of two very heavy bodies
A                              F#m
Once we three Had slept soundly
D              B
I couldn't keep them around
B
Fold the blankets down and
E                               A
Found new sleeping ground

A
Bed-springs squeaking
E                                 A
Tires squealing away From one another
            E
We all used to be lovers here
A                     E
Bodies laying say they'll stay just
        A
Like boxes stacked The same way
E
Labeled and separated


Chorus:
E
Go ahead Take the couch
              A
I know I don't wanna sit here next to nobody
E
Go ahead Take the fridge
               A
I know I don't want you going hungry, yeah
E
Go ahead Take the cat

I know you're only gonna be coming back so
D
Go ahead Take it all
E                                                D
I know you've been wanting to
B        A                              E
Settle down Has it always been
       B            D
Settlin' down

E
One on the right says To the one on the left
A                     E                    A
Let's take this one step at a time
E                                                                     A

One on the right says To the one on the left
             E                       Dbm
I think I changed my mind
B                        
My insides sing 

(3x)
E
A song for the sad ones
E                                           
Who say they'll marry They guess
A
She's wearin' the white dress If he behaves his very best

E, A
Yes


Chorus 

(3x)
Dbm   
My elastic, steel, and spring
B
They will tell you everything
         A
If you lay down for a minute


(6x)
Dbm                                       B
The mattress makers makin' his living
                        A
By the minute, by the minute
