Текст песни Morphine - In Spite Of Me

In Spite of Me by Morphine on Cure for Pain, 1993

**Note**
Simple, plaintive, and timeless.
A protagonist reminiscing on his lost love, made even more sad by the agony he's going through.
The original track features a picked mandolin carrying the melody but these chords are a good approximation.

Last night I told a stranger all about you
They smiled patiently with disbelief
I always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried

And I know you did it all in spite of me

Still I'm proud to have know you for the short time that I did
Proud to have been a step up on your way
Proud to be part of your illustrious career

And I know you did it all in spite of me
In spite of me

Late last night I saw you in my living room
You seemed so close but yet so cold
For a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me
Those kind of thoughts can be so cruel
So cruel

And I know you did it all in spite of me
In spite of me

**Fade out
