[Verse 1]
N.C.
And stop!
N.C.
'Cause,
                              Cm
why'd you have to kill my cat?
Db
Why'd I have to take you back?
Ab
Time and time, I play the empath
Fm
I don't know why
             Cm
There's some lights on in an empty pub
  Db
A toilet with the seat left up
     Ab
It's closure like a deer in headlights

[Chorus]
Bbm
One day, I know that you will be there
Db
One day, I'll focus on the future,
maybe
Bbm
One day- oh, baby,
              Db
isn't life so fu-cking inconsistent?
Bbm
One day, I know that you will be there
Db
One day, I'll focus on the future,
maybe
Bbm
One day- oh, baby,
              Db
isn't life so fu-cking inconsistent?

Eb
She said, "Let's talk about
Fm
What I want to do
             Cm7
'Cause all I want to do
Is turn back time
   Db
At least a couple Tuesdays
     Ab
To before I found one life turn two
  Fm
I said it last time
        Cm
But I'm not afraid of empty rooms
    Db
I'm not afraid of new perfume
        Ab
And, in fact, my dear
I'm fucking terrified!

The progression the song keeps returning to is Fm – Cm – Db – Ab (vi – iii – IV – I in A♭ major). In solfa, that is lah – mi – fah – doh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.
