[Intro]
C    G/B  Am
G  Fmaj7  C    G/B

[Verse 1]
            C
I know you too well
How you hate the taste of
        G/B       Am
coffee more than myself
Every freckle on your
      G          Fmaj7
body makes you special
You got potential
            C    G/B
for someone else

[Pre-Chorus]
                              C
There was a part of me that knew
            G/B       Am
It wouldn't end with me and you
                   G      Fmaj7
'Cause you always took advantage
                      Fmaj7
And left me with the damage
   C
Of all the hurtful things
          G/B
that you said to me

[Chorus]
            G
Guess you thought I could accept it
                     Am
How you were selfish
          Fmaj7
I was too understanding
   G
I gave when you demanded
                        Am
Thought it was romantic
                  C#7
You took me for granted

[Verse 2]
          C
I saw it coming, playеd it in my head
     G/B    Am
But wasn't honest of how
it all would end
        G        Fmaj7
And now I feel stupid
                                C
And somеhow useless for someone else

[Pre-Chorus]
G/B                            C
 There was a part of me that knew
            G/B       Am
It wouldn't end with me and you
                   G      Fmaj7
'Cause you always took advantage
                      Fmaj7
And left me with the damage
   C
Of all the hurtful things
          G
that you said to me
