[Verse 1]
C                                               F
I saw you looking brand new overnight

And I caught you looking too, but you didn’t look twice
C                              F
You look happy, oh
C                         F
You look happy, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
C
Flashing back to New York City

Changing flights so you stay with me
C                                                 G
Remember thinking that I got this right

[Chorus]
Dm                                     G
Now I wish we never met
C                                                 Am
Cause you’re too hard to forget

Now I’m cleaning up your mess

I know he’s taking off your dress

I hope you lie, lie, lie

[Verse 2]
F
Sitting under the moonlight, it’s just you and me
C                                                                         F
If I make it to dawn then it won’t be hard to sleep
C                         F
I ain’t happy, oh

At least you’re happy, woah

[Pre-Chorus]
C
Flashing back to New York City

Changing flights so you stay with me

How I must have thought I had this right

Now I wish we never met

While I’m cleaning up your mess
