i can't stand it when you tell our infant son
Em                                    
that he was born beneath a bad sign.
C
and i can't stand it when smiles up at you
Crun                        D7
just because you're his mother.
G    
and i can't stand the bitter thing that i've become
Em
beneath the four walls that hold up our ceiling.
      C
and i wonder when the house gets real quiet
                   Crun                                D7
who between us will be the first one to give into the feeling.
       G                         Cm           D       
and i know you don't want me to hurt you tonight.
    G                        Cm                D
and i, i don't want you to hurt me the way you do.

i can't stand it when you put the boy to bed and ya
sing him those songs i used to sing to you.
yeah i can't stand to hear you sing those songs
when you know you don't mean them.
and i can't stand the way my body still remembers 
how much we used to mean to one another way back when.
and i can't stand going back to seek the shelter of your arms.
and then i can't stand it again.
and i know you don't want me to hurt you tonight.
and i, i don't want you to hurt me the way you do.
