I sang you a song I wrote about us
About the time you threw me under the bus
And about the time that you said
You really wished I was dead
Then you say you think it’s wrong
I never write happy songs
You say all my melodies end up in a minor key
You say all my songs are blue, but what you think it just ain’t true
I’ve written happy songs. Just not about you
Then there’s the one about our love
You said you fit me like a glove
A boxing glove I think you said
You’d use it to punch me in the head
Then you wonder all night long
Why I never write happy songs
You say all my melodies end up in a minor key
You say all my songs are blue, but what you think it just ain’t true
I’ve written happy songs. Just not about you
You say you could live in harmony
With anyone other than me
My chorus of friends tell me to walk away
Just pick up my ol’ guitar and play
Then I could write a happy song
One in which you’re long gone
You say all my melodies end up in a minor key
You say all my songs are blue, but what you think it just ain’t true
I’ve written happy songs. Just not about you
