 Subject: CHR: Aimee Mann - Stupid Thing
 Title: Stupid Thing
 Artist: Aimee Mann
 Album: Whatever
 Verse 1
 =======
 F             C           Dm    Bb
 Nothing was saving our day,
 
           F          C   
 There was nothing to say,
 
         Gm             Bb
 but you said something anyway.
 
 F          C              Dm     Bb
 Claiming I stepped out of line,
 
       F             C
 which forced you to leave me,
    Gm          Bb
 as if that idea was mine.
 
 Chorus
 ======
 
 Gm             Bb
 Oh, you stupid thing,
 
 F                          C
 Speaking of course as your dear departed.
 
 Gm             Bb
 Oh, you stupid thing,
 
 F                 C
 It wasn't me that you outsmarted.
 
 Gm             Bb
 Oh, you stupid thing,
 
             F
 stopping it all
 
           C    Bb
 before it even started.
 
 
 Verse 2
 =======
 
 F         C             Dm     Bb
 I bet you knew it would come,
 
 F                C           Gm
 that's just like you, to sit back
 
          Bb
 and just play it dumb.
 
 F           C             Dm     Bb
 One word of warning would help,
 
     F          C
 but that sacrifice was made
 
 Gm           Bb
 trying to save yourself.
 
 Chorus
 ======

 Dm  Bb  Bb/A  Gm  Bb  F
 Dm  Bb  Bb/A  Gm  Bb  C  Bb  F
 
 Verse 3
 =======
 
 F            C          Dm    Bb
 Maybe that's just how I am, 
 
    F            C
 to fall where I stand, or
 
     Gm            Bb
 I'm weak for that kind of man.
 
 F             C            Dm     Bb
 One who looks helpless and brave,
 
                F      C
 but you turned into a coward,
 
        Gm            Bb
 I don't care for the parts you saved.
 
 Chorus
 ======
 
 Outro

 Gm  Bb  F  C
 Repeat to fade
