        Em      D      G      Em      C                  G
you had one eye on the mirror and you watched yourself a lot

and all the boys dreamed that they'd be your partner, they'd be your partner yeah

        Em    D       G          Em        C               G
but you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me
           D                 Cadd9
i had some dreams there were clouds in my coffee clouds in my coffee yeah

            Em     D         G         Em  C                      G
