Susan/Aimee Mann

capo up one fret

        2x

                                                           
Oh, Susan, you were clued in you knew just how this thing would go
                                                   
A prognosis that was hopeless from the very first domino
             
I guess I see it all in hindsight
I tried to keep perspective despite
The flash of the fuse, the smell of cordite

chorus:
               
Now I'm in that place again
                              
And I know he can't come in to get me
                            
And someday he will live to regret me
            
Susan, I can see it now

       

                                              
Oh, Suzie--they get to me they can really be wearying 
                                             
But he threw me rope and buoy let me use his decoder ring
                                
There must have been some kind of parade
We kissed for a while to see how it played
And pulled the pin on another grenade

[chorus]

        2x

                                                 
Oh, Susan, the hope of fusion is that the halo will reappear
                                              
It may be pure illusion but it's beautiful while it's here
                            
I had some trouble with the goodbye
I checked my Roman candle supply
and watched the vapor trail in the sky

chorus:
                    
But I'm in that place again
                                         
And I know he can't come in to get me
                          
And someday he will live to regret me
              
Susan, I can see it now
                  
       Susan, I can see it now 
                           
       Susan, I can see it now
