Intro:     

                                     
White kitchen walls with a thousand windows
                            
You turn on winsten in the den
                               
And I'm still sleep but I can hear the piano
                              
When you make breakfast after 10

                                 
And I smell the coffee on your fingers
                             
Still smell the perfune in the air
                            
The crushed linen roses on everything
                          
And you're still inside my head

                               
You gotta make her know how it feels
                                               
To miss you, let her know that you're swapping sides
                         
you're not the one with all the problems
                                   
No no, you're the one with all the pride
                                    
So just pick your head up boys, and just walk away
                                
Walk the coolest walk that you know

                          
Cause in amonth or two she'll call you
           
You gotta hang up the phone
                                
And I hope she knows I've got this memory,
                                 
that won't ever seem to break or bend
                                  
A thick lock and sheet rock is on my windows
                                               
In the kitchen oh, I don't think I'll take them down again

                                   
And i've learned a lot from all these break ups and make ups and FUCK UPs and fake ups
                               
Things I that I wish you could comprend
                                  
Yeah, comprend, but for now I'll lace up my wing tip shoes and
                                    
Going out for breakfast with my good friends
                                            
Yeah, yeah, you gotta make her know, how it feels to miss you
                                  
Let her know that you're swappin sides
                                                                           
You're not the one with all the problems repeat, you're the one with all the Pride.

(Mostly notes around the D chord)
Violen solo
                                         
you gotta make her know, how it feels to miss you
                           
Let her know that you're swappin spit
                                                                             
You're not the one with all the problems repeat, she's the one that's full of shit
                                 
So just pick your head up boys, and just walk away
                           
Walk the coolest walk that you know I know you know
                                       
In a month or two, she'll call you, you gotta hang up the phone.

Good if you've just broke up with a girl, so pass it along if you've got a
buddy in the dumps.
