Interlude:
Dm7 G7 (x4)
Break:
Dm7 G7
You're just a masochistic fool,
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Because you knew my love was cruel.
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
You never listened when they said;
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Don't let that girl go to your head.
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
But like a play boy you said no, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
This little girl's mind you will blow, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
But then I blew you out the box, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
When I put my stuff on key and lock, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
It makes me feel kind of sick, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
To know love put you in a trick, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
I knew our love would have to end, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
The day I made it with your friend, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Giving your love to one un-real, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Like a big fool, I know you feel, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
But in this lovey-dovey game, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
With all its joy there must be pain, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
But now the time has surely come, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
This game don't seem like so much fun, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
You're cryin' big crocodile tears, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Don't match the ones I've cried for years, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
When I was home waiting for you, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
You were out somewhere doing the do, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
You know I'd really like to stay, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
But like you did I've got to play, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
You're dumb to think I'd let you be, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Scott free, with-out some pain from me, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
I heard your song and took a chance, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
But to your music I can't dance, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Go tell your story 'sob-sad', (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
About you blowin' what you had, (ordi-nary pain).
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Since one ain't good enough for you, (ordi-nary pain),
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Then do your-self; see how you do, (ordi-nary pain).
Coda:
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Or-di-nary pain, ordi-nary pain.
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Or-di-nary pain, ordi-nary pain.
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Or-di-nary pain, ordi-nary pain.
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
Or-di-nary pain, ordi-nary pain.
