* Note below that when the Bm is played, it should be alternated between strums with a Bm7 (just lift the ol' middle finger off the B string if you're playing the standard barre chord Bm).
Intro:
D Bm/Bm7* G Em G A (this is also the main progression throughout the song)
D No more negotiations dear
Bm/Bm7 I'm runnin' out of patience here
G Em Whisper congratulations in my ear
G A When it's clear that we got nothin' much left to say
D The monuments and maps
Bm/Bm7 The skylines and the tourist traps
G Em Would all do well if they'd collapse
G A And send you runnin' back here to me
CHORUS
G D Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?
G Em In all the pictures that you send me now
G Em A Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
G A other things break down too
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
G A D And now I think I'm breakin' down on you
D Bm/Bm7 G Em G A
D Could you be more specific dear
Bm/Bm7 Tell me what is so terrific here
G Em Don't be to scientific but make it clear
G A and never fear I'll be scratchin' it down my nails in clay
CHORUS
G D Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?
G Em In all the pictures that you send me now
G Em A Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
G A other things break down too
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
G A D And now I think I'm breakin' down on you
G D Have another sedative It gets so repetitive
G D And don't do a damn to help me feel O.K.
G D And all the breath of me here from you and that would be very nice
Em G If ever it'll help me get through the day, yeah yeah yeah yeah,
SOLO (Play main part four times)
D Bm/Bm7 G Em G A
CHORUS
G D Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?
G Em In all the pictures that you send me now
G Em A Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
G A other things break down too
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
G A And now I think I'm breakin' down on...
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
G A other things break down too (spoken)
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
