(Intro)
G , Em , C9 , D

(Verse)
G
You almost always pick the best times
            Em
to drop the worst lines
                                  C9
you almost made me cry again this time
               D
another false alarm

red flashing lights
G
well this time I'm not going to watch myself die
G
I think I made it a game to play your game
               Em
and let myself cry
                                  C9
I buried myself alive on the inside
                      D
so I could shut you out
                        G
and let you go away for a long time

(Chorus)
G
I guess it's ok I puked the day away
Em                                                    C9
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
                      D
and if you want me back
                        G
you're gonna have to ask

(Verse)
G
I think the chain broke away
                                    Em
and I felt it the day that I had my own time
                                        C9
I took advantage of myself and felt fine
                         D
but it was worth the night
                         G
I caught an early flight and I made it home

(Chorus)
G
I guess it's ok I puked the day away
Em
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
C9
and if you want me back
D
you're gonna have to ask
Em   D  C9
nicer than that
Em   D  C9
nicer than that

(Break) - Cadd9 the whole time. I fingerpick it personally.
C9
with my foot on your neck

I finally have you

right where I want you

right where I want you

right where I want you

right where I want you

G
I guess it's ok I puked the day away
Em
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way (your own way)
C9
and if you want me back
D
you're gonna have to ask

G (Fingerpicked until the end)
nicer than that (I guess it's ok I puked the day away)
nicer than that (I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way)
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
nicer than that
nicer
nicer
