[Intro]
G  D  Em  C

[Verse 1]
                   G
Tell me that it’s my fault
                   D
my fault that it’s over
                  Em
wish I played it different
           C
I didn’t know
                    G
All the times that you called
                  D
called me to be closer
               Em
wish I paid attention
             C
I should’ve known

You’re probably with your friends

dancing on tabletops  (tabletops)
             G            D      
hands in his hair already saying

you’ll end up leaving here with someone
 C

lights out and it’s not me you’re loving
I just don’t wanna know

Cold sheets when you’re leaving
                  D
used to sleep between them
                  Em
now I’m sleeping different

I let you go
                 G
I’m not used to feeling
