VERSE 1 -
Dm                Bb               C
thought you'd be looking for the next in line to love
       Dm        F           Bb
then ignore put out and put away

     Dm                Bb        C
and so you'd soon be leaving me alone like I'm supposed to be
Dm               F      Bb
tonight tomorrow and everyday

C                                F
there's nothing here that you'll miss

       Gm           F         Gm        Dm
I can guarantee you this is a cloud of smoke

C                F
trying to occupy space

Gm                 F
what a fucking joke

Gm             Dm
what a fucking joke

    Dm         Bb        C
i waited for a bus to separate the both of us

            Dm       F         Bb
and take me off far away from you

         Dm             Bb               C
'cos my feelings never change a bit i always feel like shit

             Dm          F       Bb
i don't know why i guess i 'just do'

C                           F
you once talked to me about love

        Gm                F   Gm          Dm
and you painted pictures of a never-never land

C                           F
and i could've gone to that place

      Gm           F
but i didn't understand

   Gm         F
i didn't understand

   Gm         Dm
i didn't understand
