I'Ve Been Here Before

chorus Well, the one I wanna see Don't wanna see me I've been here before... I've been here before... I guess I ask For a little too much I've been here before... I've been here before... Happiness, you're a stranger You ain't no friend of mine I know what I want, I can't have it I guess I'll do some time Some time without the one The one I wanna see I guess it's ended this way She don't wanna be with me repeat chorus Loneliness is a hitchhiker I picked up on the road She told me to relax That she had time to blow Letdown was a friend of mine I grew to know her well She always asked if I was buying 'Cause she had goods to sell repeat chorus I could tell my girl it's right But I'd know it's wrong Conscience, you're a...jerk(profanity) I guess I'll have to stand long I'd stand forever through any kind of weather If there was a chance A chance that I'd get through Through to you repeat chorus The one I want won't have me She won't even call I guess I wanted too much I guess I wanted it all Expecting too much is dangerous Better watch your step Because I'm telling you, my friend Heartbreak never ends repeat chorus

I can't really explain the type of music it is, I got all the chords to it and everything. It's kind of...a somber sounding acoustic...see, its really hard to define. lol It's just a sad acoustic song, I guess I could post the chords above each set of lyrics.
