[Verse 1]
A
Know that I loved you so bad
A
I let you treat me like that
F#m
I was your willing accomplice,
honey
    A
And I watched as you fled
the scene
A
Doe-eyed as you buried me
F#m
One heart broke, four hands bloody

You used me as an alibi

I crossed my heart as
you crossed the line

And I defended you to all my friends

'Cause you know that
I'd do it all again
