Missie How You Let Me Down Richard Thompson
Hailstones and a[Em7] sickle moon and the north wind races[D]
[Em7]One more night of running my mind over [D]lost embraces
[Em7]The steps you made when you walked away
[D]Still frozen in the ground[G]
[G]Oh missie how you [A]let me [G]down
[G]Oh missie how you [A]let me [G]down
[G]Oh missie how you [A]let me [Bm]down
[Em7]And lies won't break my [A]fall
[Em7]Lies won't break my [G]fall
[Em7]Your food's still sitting there at the t[D]able where you used to be
[Em7]The shape of you is still in the bed the[D]re next to me
[Em7]Maybe I could find some [D]trace of you to keep around[G]
[G]Oh missie how you [A]let me d[G]own
[G]Oh missie how you [A]let me d[Bm]own
[A]For far too long you kept me waiting[F#m]
Reaching out into empty air[G]
[A]Even now you'd never say it face to face[F#m]
That you [G]really don't care
And if [A]you never liked pulling teeth
Then [D]why, why did you tie me in the [G]dentist's chair[Bm]
[Em]
[Em7]Ah you left your mark on this old place,[D] that you did
[Em7]I could stew in here like a pressure coo[D]ker and screw down the lid
[Em7]Or maybe I should just take a match
[D]And burn the whole thing to the [G]ground
[G]Oh missie how yo[A]u let me [G]down
[G]Oh missie how yo[A]u let me[G] down
[G]Oh missie how yo[A]u let me[Bm] down
[Em7]And lies won't break my [A]fall
[Em7]Lies won't break[G] my fall
