Tiny Bits of Paper

One day she took some tiny bits of paper
And wrote down things about me that she loved
She's surely from the earth
Sometimes I'm sure that she is from above
It had been a happy pop song
And then it turned mad country
She used to
Then she no longer loved me

I use the same chords on many of these songs
Because they're all on the same theme
I got no problem with it 'cause they're getting across
Just what I mean
It's a story I'ma tell
It'll only take one or two records
The story of how she wrecked me
And how I wrecked her

This'll probably be the last song on the first record
But we'll see how it goes
We forgot to follow the signals
And we wound up toe to toe going blow for blow
I figured this song would become
Some kind of melancholy ending
Though I hoped that we were mistaken
When we thought it was breaking
That it was only bending

Some days I take the full pages of paper
And type out things about her that I love
She's surely from the earth
Sometimes I'm sure that she is from above
