SOL RE
Night with its shattered teeth attempts to speak
DO SOL SOL
My pen is present but courage left via the sink
SOL RE
And I'm sorry I snuck up on you from behind
DO SOL
I'm sorry not all my love letters did rhyme
RE SOL
And I'm sorry that Jesus died for my sins
RE SOL
And I swear to God it won't happen again
RE RE DO DO
And I'm sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway
RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
RE DO
And Romeo was a very nice man
SOL SOL SOL SOL
He said "Jewel, I don't think you quite understand"
RE DO
And I'm sorry if you had to explain it like this
SOL RE
I'm sorry I was a point you were destined to miss
SOL RE
And I'm sorry I spoke to you irreverently
SOL RE
Down in the hollow by the old olive tree
RE DO DO
And I'm sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day
RE RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes It be that way
Chorus
RE/LA SOL
I said "Oh well, I got nothing left to sell
RE/LA SOL
This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
RE/LA SOL LA LA
I was bound to find out that you didn't care
RE RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
SOL RE
And Aphrodite with her neon lamp
DO SOL
Kissed Neptune they put her face on a stamp
SOL RE
And I'm sorry I used it to mail a letter to you
DO SOL
I'm sorry I'm glue and the rest bounces off of you
RE SOL
And I'm sorry not even this jet's metal wings
RE SOL
Could get across these simple things
RE RE DO
And I'm sorry if I ever sang your name in vain
RE RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
RE DO
And Goldilocks, well she knew three bears
SOL SOL SOLG SOLG
They all ate oatmeal and tiptoed upstairs
RE DO
And I'm sorry I never got to find you like this
SOL RE
Sleeping like a baby and swaddled in bliss
SOL RE
And I'm sorry for all the times
SOL RE
I forgot to imply something in between the lines
RE DO DO
And i'm sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day
RE RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
Chorus
I said "Oh well, I got nothing left to sell
This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
I was bound to find out that you didn't care
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
SOL RE
And shadow's long fingers they dance on the wall
DO SOL
Electricity chases its tail in the hall
SOL RE
And I'm sorry if my arms to you were just empty rooms
DO SOL
I'm sorry I never could comfort you
RE SOL
And I'm sorry St. Petersburg is a miserable town-
RE SOL
And I'm sorry if I am bringing you down
RE RE DO
And I'm sorry if I caused you pain
DO RE RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
SOL RE
And flame licks the air with its silver tongue
DO SOL
Night has many hands but I have just one
SOL RE
And I'm sorry I walked in on you unexpectedly
DO SOL
I'm sorry I never served you Camomile tea
RE SOL
And I'm sorry I didn't always have a match
RE SOL
That could start a fire big enough for your heart to catch
RE RE DO
And I'm sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway
DO RE RE SOL SOL
Oh well, sometimes it be that way
