[Verse 1]
F#m Ebm
I know where you’ve been
Gm C#sus2
Don’t try to act like I don’t know you
F#m Ebm
And all the words you don’t hear
Gm C#sus2
They always find a way back to you now

F#m Ebm
Say a new day has dawned
Gm
But we no longer get to
C#sus2
Cause I know the truth
F#m Ebm
The leaves are all gone
Gm
So who’s moving on?
C#sus2
I know the worst is to come

[Chorus]
F#m Ebm
On that Halloween you told me
Gm C#sus2
You weren’t drinkin
I believed you
F#m Ebm
Now the only time I have’s to
Gm C#sus2
Sit and wonder

If you’re thinkin
F#m
About the fun

You’ve had with someone else

I know the truth

Is wasted on you

[Interlude]
F#m Ebm Gm C#sus2

F#m Ebm
I know what you wanted
Gm
Under the lies
C#sus2 F#m
You take ’em and find a way
Ebm
To run out the door now
Gm C#sus2
Back to a time that you tried to forget

F#m
Why’s the music so loud
Ebm
Take it to the lawn now
Gm C#sus2
Did you think about me if I ever was to find out?
F#m Ebm
Can you ease the pain with drinkin’ all night?
Gm C#sus2
Guess you’ll never know the answer if you never try

[Chorus]
F#m Ebm
On that Halloween you told me
Gm C#sus2
You weren’t drinkin
I believed you
F#m Ebm
Now the only time I have’s to
Gm C#sus2
Sit and wonder
If you’re thinkin
F#m
About the fun
Ebm
You’ve had with someone else
Gm
I know the truth
C#sus2
Is wasted on you

You had the choice

I thought we had it made

What’s done is done
C#sus2
What’s left to day?

I know you better
Ebm
I know you better now

I know you better
C#sus2
I know you better now
