[Intro] N.C. One, two [Verse 1] A Amaj7 It's been a couple months F#m E That's just about enough time D For me to stop cryin' when C#m I look at all the pictures Bm7 Now I kinda smile, I haven't E felt that in a while A Amaj7 It's late, I hear the door F#m E Bell ringin' and it's pourin' D I open up that door, see your C#m brown eyes at the entrance Bm7 And you just wanna talk and E I can't turn away from my door A C#m F#m But please don't ruin this for me E D Please don't make it harder Bm7 than it already is D E I'm tryin' to get over this

[Chorus]
A C#m
I wish that you would stay
F#m
in my memories
E
But you show up today
just to ruin things
D Bm7
I wanna put you in the past
'cause I'm traumatized
D
But you're not letting me
E
do that 'cause tonight
A
You're all drunk in my kitchen
C#m
curled in the fetal position
F#m
Too busy playin' the victim
E
to be listenin' to me
D
When I say
Bm7
I wish that you would stay
D
in my memories
E
In my memories, stay in my memories

[Verse 2]
A Amaj7
Now I can't say "Goodbye"
F#m E
if you stay here the whole night
D
You see it's hard to find an end to
C#m
somethin' that you keep beginnin'
Bm7
Over and over again
E
I promise that the endin' always
stays the same
A Amaj7
So there's no good reason to make
F#m
believe in that we could
E
ever exist again
D
I can't be your friend,
can't be your lover
Bm7
Can't be the reason we hold on
D
each other for fallin' in love
E
It's somebody other than me
