Jim Bogart

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I would sleep better on your floor

Than I would ever in my bed

And if your carpet makes my face itch

It'd still be heaven in my head

I would play more than just four chords

If it's a song that you might like

But I am not very good

So I would practice every night

And she said, "Sometimes things just don't work out

The way you want them to

Sometimes things just don't work out

The way they should flow through"

"Sometimes things just don't work out

The way you want them to

Sometimes things just don't work out

It's better me than it is you"

"Break your neck

And I will love you

Like a bird that cannot fly

You will be fine"

And she says, "break your neck

And I will love you every night

You will be mine"

I would stop doing all those things

The doctor tells me not to do

But I don't think he understands

I do all of these things for you

And you've got gold plastic on your shelf

That they gave to everybody else

And you could say it says your name

But I don't think that that would help

And she said, "sometimes things just don't work out

The way you want them to

Sometimes things just don't work out

The way they should flow through"

"Sometimes things just don't work out

The way you want them to

Sometimes things just don't work out

It's better me than it is you"

"Break your neck

And I will love you

Like a bird that cannot fly

You will be fine"

And she says, "Break your neck

And I will love you every night

You will be mine"

And today we can do something that we've never done before

And today we can do something more

And today we can do something that we've never done before

Done before

And today we can do something that we've never done before

And today we can do something more

And today we can do something that we've never done before

Done before
