[Verse 1]
  C           G/B
3 AM and I'm still awake,
     Am               G
I'll bet you're just fine
         F
Fast asleep in your city
         G
that's better than mine
         C           G/B
And the girl in your bed
       Am      G
has a fine pedigree
          F
And I'll bet your friends tell
            G
you she's better than me, huh

[Instrumental]

F       G

[Verse 2]
          C         G/B
Well, I tried to fit in with
      Am           G
your upper-crust circles
            F
Yeah, they let me sit in back
     G
when we were in love
          C          G/B
Oh, they sit around talkin'
           Am            G
about the meaning of life
         F
And the book that just saved
             G
'em that I hadn't heard of

[Chorus]
     F
But now that we're done
          C
and it's over
F                     C
I bet you couldn't believe
            Am
When you realized I'm harder to
                       G
forget than I was to leave
And I bet you think about me
C  G/B  Am  G  F       G

[Verse 3]
         C        G/B
You grew up in a silver-spoon
 Am       G
gated community
   F
Glamorous, shiny,
          G
bright Beverly Hills
        C         G/B
I was raised on a farm, no,
     Am       G
it wasn't a mansion
       F
Just livin' room dancin'
       G
and kitchen table bills

[Verse 4]
         C             G/B
But you know what they say,
           Am           G
you can't help who you fall for
     F                       G
And you and I fell like an early
spring snow
       C     G/B
But reality crept in,
     Am               G
you said we're too different
       F
You laughed at my dreams,
             G
rolled your eyes at my jokes

[Chorus]
F              C
Mr. Superior Thinkin'
        F
Do you have all the space
          C
that you need?
         Am
I don't have to be your shrink to
                            G
know that you'll never be happy
   N.C.                    C
And I bet you think about me
G/B  Am  G  F

[Bridge]
F     C
Oh, block it all out
      G
The voices so loud, sayin'
 Am           G       F
"Why did you let her go?"
          C
Does it make you feel sad
          G
That the love that you're
lookin' for
                      F
Is the love that you had?

            C          G/B
Now you're out in the world,
   Am               G
searchin' for your soul
        F               G
Scared not to be hip, scared
to get old
         C            G/B
Chasing make-believe status,
      Am            G
last time you felt free
          F
Was when none of that shit
                 G
mattered 'cause you were with me

[Chorus]
     F
But now that we're done
          C
and it's over
F                     C
I bet it's hard to believe
          Am
That it turned out I'm harder to
                       G
forget than I was to leave
          N.C.                   C
And, yeah, I bet you think about me
G/B  Am  G  F

[Outro]
G                     C
I bet you think about me
            G/B
when you're out
         Am          G
At your cool indie music
        F
concerts every week
G                     C
I bet you think about me
         G/B
in your house
            Am      G
With your organic shoes and
        F
your million-dollar couch
G                     C
I bet you think about me
         G/B
when you say
       Am           G
"Oh my God, she's insane,
             F
she wrote a song about me"
G                     C
I bet you think about me
