Jealous Guy (John Lennon cover) Lyrics
I was dreaming of the past
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy
I was feeling insecure
You might not love me any more
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside
I was trying to catch your eyes
Thought that you were trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain
And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy
You might not love me any more
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside
Thought that you were trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain

Just downloaded the acoustic live version of Elliot's cover... UNBELIEVABLE! R.I.P Elliot
Elliott Smith's cover is so beautiful...
he could cover lennon and beatles better than anyone else:(
sometimes i feel like my boyfriend should be singing me this song. :'(
his voice sounds perfect for this song
AMAZING!
Best cover ever!
his voice is angelic.
this cover is better than the original, elliott is the best singer/songwriter of this decade R.I.P.
Better than the original. Hands down.
This song makes me depressed.. it's so beautiful but listening to it makes me realize I'll never ever get the chance to see Elliott live. Ever.
R.I.P. Elliott
god, elliott could cover the beatles, john lennon, george harrison..perfectly. this song makes me so sad though.. i just want to cry, when i hear him whistle in the middle, but then he just can't seem to hit that one last note... you can tell that he's really putting all his emotion into it. and it's beautiful.
xo, elliott. we miss you.
