Intro: Ebm  C# B   C#   x2

Verse 1:
                 EbmSo (xx4342@1)let's set the scene
He walked out 
   C#B
to a  busy street
In the summer heat
     C# (x43121@1)             EbmHazy (xx4342@1)from the night before
Not the type to 
 C# (x43121@1) Bspend (x2444x@1)one alone
Even though he knows
         C#Come (x43121@1)the morning
         EbmC# Bhe'll (x2444x@1)be gone
              C#Just (x43121@1)moving on

Verse 2:
Ebm (xx4342@1)           C#B
   She awoke in an empty bed
The sting of regret
         C# (x43121@1)       EbmCreeping (xx4342@1)into every bone
On the nightstand
C# B
a  note that read
"Girl I won't be back
      C# (x43121@1)              Ebmyou (xx4342@1)deserve better than that"
    C# (x43121@1)  BShe (x2444x@1)would cry if 
                 C#she (x43121@1)could lie to herself
            EbmCause (xx4342@1)she's used 
   C# (x43121@1)Bto (x2444x@1)the first time
                 C#Always (x43121@1)being her last

Chorus:
               EbmCan (xx4342@1)you see it dripping 
     C# (x43121@1)     Bdown (x2444x@1)from her lips
                     C#Dancing (x43121@1)on her fingertips?
                Ebm (xx4342@1)C# (x43121@1)     BCan (x2444x@1)you see the pain that she hides
                   C#Deep (x43121@1)inside in her eyes?
            Ebm (xx4342@1)C# (x43121@1)    BThis (x2444x@1)is all just what it seems
                     C#Give (x43121@1)me just another dream
                  Ebm (xx4342@1)       C#B
Could be that the end doesn't al ways
Just justify the means
               C#Sometimes (x43121@1)it's better to just leave

Post chorus: 
Ebm  C# B

C# (x43121@1)           Ebm (xx4342@1)C#B  C#Sometimes (x43121@1)it's better to just leave

Verse 3:
                   EbmSo (xx4342@1)let's set this straight
Two weeks later 
C# (x43121@1) Bhe's (x2444x@1)back again
City of sin
          C# (x43121@1)           EbmAnd (xx4342@1)she's acting out her role
              C# (x43121@1)  BShe (x2444x@1)arrives a touch at the waist
To another pretty face
          C#And (x43121@1)she's taking
         Ebmthis (xx4342@1)one home
    C# (x43121@1) BShe (x2444x@1)will lie and he 
         C#will (x43121@1)buy her lines
               Ebm (xx4342@1) C# (x43121@1)BCause (x2444x@1)you were never the first
                            C#She (x43121@1)tries that shit all the time

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
B (x2444x@1)        Ebm (xx4342@1) She's so afraid of 
             Bwhat (x2444x@1)she's become
                      F#She's (244322@1)begging just to feel 
    C# (x43121@1)         Bsomething (x2444x@1)for anyone
             C#Nothing (x43121@1)can stand
but she's made up her
EbmMind (xx4342@1)is all I can't 
     F#hang (244322@1)on now
C# (x43121@1)          BShe (x2444x@1)is on her own
Get out while you 
 C#still (x43121@1)have some heart left
Ebm (xx4342@1)  You can't say "so 
C#/F
long" with no hope

(Repeat Chorus)
