D                  Cadd9              D       Cadd9
Your sister like to go to the drive-in movie
D                   Cadd9          D          Cadd9
Your sister liked to listen to the radio
D                            Cadd9               D       Cadd9
I used to think that she got off on the things I hated
D                    Cadd9          D   Cadd9
She used to call me a Racetrack Romeo


[Verse 2]
Am                      C             D
'Course she wanted to know you better
Am                           C              D
I think she knew that it was her own fault
Am                       C                D
She didn't do it just to make you suffer
Am                         C           C      D   Am
I think she did it just to piss me off


[Chorus 1]
      C      G    D    Am
So merciless
     C       G        D   Am
So merciless she was
      C      G       D  Am  C  G
So merciless


[Verse 3]
D                       Cadd9                    D            Cadd9
There's nothin' I could say that would make this better
D                       Cadd9                   D          Cadd9
There's nothin' I could do that could make this worse
D                     Cadd9                     D      Cadd9
No, she didn't leave a note underneath my pillow
D                    Cadd9        D         Cadd9
No, I didn't find an answer in her purse


[Verse 4]
Am                     C              D
Yeah I guess I shoulda seen it coming
Am                          C                D
It makes me wish I could've done it myself
Am                       C                D
After this, I'll prob'ly keep on running
Am                        C           C         D  Am
There's a couple miles of highway left


[Chorus 2]
      C      G    D    Am
So merciless
     C       G        D   Am
So merciless we are

So merciless


[Bridge]
Em                   C                Em
Why do people always knock so loud?
                   C                  Em
Why does everybody seem so lonely?
                            C                Em
She would say that I should watch the crowd
                   C
Never focus on the faces only

D  Am  C  G   x4


[Verse 6]
Am                       C                 D
Yeah I guess I should've seen it coming
Am                    C              D
She was givin' me the wrong advice
Am             C                 D
My [way?] is a racetrack honey
Am                     C               C    D  Am
With the windows up it sounds real nice
