Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Night with its shattered teeth attempts to speak

My pen is present but courage left via the sink

And I'm sorry I snuck up on you from behind

I'm sorry not all my love letters did rhyme

And I'm sorry that Jesus died for my sins

And I swear to God it won't happen again

And I'm sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway

Oh well, sometimes it be that way

And Romeo was a very nice man

He said "Jewel, I don't think you quite understand"

And I'm sorry if you had to explain it like this

I'm sorry I was a point you were destined to miss

And I'm sorry I spoke to you irreverently

Down in the hollow by the old olive tree

And I'm sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day

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

And Aphrodite with her neon lamp

Kissed Neptune they put her face on a stamp

And I'm sorry I used it to mail a letter to you

I'm sorry I'm glue and the rest bounces off of you

I'm sorry not even this jet's metal wings

Could get across these simple things

And I'm sorry if I ever sang your name in vain

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

Said Oh well, sometimes it be that way

And flame licks the air with its silver tongue

Night has many hands but I have just one

And I'm sorry I walked in on you unexpectedly

I'm sorry I didn't serve you both Camomile tea

And I'm sorry I didn't always have a match

That could start a fire big enough for your heart to catch

And I'm sorry if my swerve tempted you to sway

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

Oh well, sometimes it be that way
