[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
C
 Feels like a disrespectful
     Dm
 oversimplification
F                       G
 To say we wanted different things
C                          Dm
 To brush it off with an explanation
F                               G
 Like attachments, styles, and timing
C                  Dm
You were my everything
 F                          G
Maybe that’s part of the problem
    C                    Dm
But I wouldn’t change a thing
F                       G
Not from the moment it started

[Chorus]
           C
When you think of me
                                 Dm
Are you settin’ fire to every memory?
            F
And do you believe

What doesn’t last forever
             G
don’t mean anything?
          C
‘Cause I swear I loved you fully
         Dm
And I'm sorry not for stayin’
         F
who we thought I’d be
           G
When you think of me
                       C           Dm
Am I just another man who leaves?
              F             G
Just another man who leaves

[Verse 2]
          C
I hate myself for hurting you,
 but it would make it worse to fix it
   Dm
I wish I’d figured out a way
of keepin’ myself in it
       F
‘Cause I meant to be the man
 you were standin’ with
            G
Not another tally line to
justify your fear of abandonment
       C
And I hate how I lived up
to your worst fears
           Dm
Makes it worse how it worked
so well for three years
         F
And it could all be for
the best in the end
         G
But for now, it feels
 like losin’ my best friend

[Chorus]
           C
When you think of me
                                 Dm
Are you settin’ fire to every memory?
            F
And do you believe
What doesn’t last forever
              G
 don’t mean anything?
          C
‘Cause I swear I loved you fully
         Dm
And I'm sorry not for stayin’
         F
who we thought I’d be
           G
When you think of me
                       C
Am I just another man who
         Dm
leaves?
              F             G
Just another man who leaves

[Bridge]
C                  Dm
You were my everything
 F                          G
Maybe that’s part of the problem
    C                    Dm
But I wouldn’t change a thing
F                       G
Not from the moment it started

[Chorus]
           C
When you think of me
Are you settin’ fire to
          Dm
 every memory?
            F
And do you believe
What doesn’t last forever
             G
 don’t mean anything?
          C
‘Cause I swear I loved you fully
         Dm
And I'm sorry not for stayin’
         F
who we thought I’d be
           G
When you think of me
                           C
Am I just another man who leaves?
