Intro
 x2: C, Cadd9, G



Verse 1
C (x32010@1)                   Cadd9 (x32030@1) G (320003@1)Just when I had everything figured out

C (x32010@1)             Cadd9 (x32030@1)       G (320003@1)I let too many words open my small mouth

C (x32010@1)         Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)He held me once in a room

C (x32010@1)         Cadd9 (x32030@1)        G (320003@1)                  
 It was unattended, and it tasted

C (x32010@1)    Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)Of an artist's perfume (Oooh, oooh)

C (x32010@1)    Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)Of an artist's perfume

C (x32010@1) Cadd9 (x32030@1)       G (320003@1)He graced my naked back

C (x32010@1)          Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)My only sheet was a black dress

C (x32010@1)           Cadd9 (x32030@1)     G (320003@1)Woke up to a cold, windy city

C (x32010@1)      Cadd9 (x32030@1)            G (320003@1)Woke up trying to keep the memory

C (x32010@1)                  Cadd9 (x32030@1)        G (320003@1)I was poisoned into lying through my teeth

C (x32010@1)        Cadd9 (x32030@1)              G (320003@1)While his words were spoken only truthfully

C (x32010@1)      Cadd9 (x32030@1)      G (320003@1)Lost my shoes in the mud,

C (x32010@1)      Cadd9 (x32030@1)      G (320003@1)Walked away clean
              C (x32010@1)   Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)Trying to be tough (Oooh, oooh)

C (x32010@1)   Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)I was trying to be tough



Chorus 1
Em (022000@1)                G (320003@1)              C (x32010@1)There's nothing in between love and hate

Cadd9    G
 When it comes down to it

Em (022000@1)                   G (320003@1)                        C (x32010@1)So you can walk clean away or you can act in the play

Cadd9 (x32030@1)    G (320003@1)That we so easily put on for them



Verse 2
 x2: C, Cadd9, G

C (x32010@1)                     Cadd9 (x32030@1)    G (320003@1)There was residence of hope in my heart

C (x32010@1)         Cadd9 (x32030@1)           G (320003@1)Til' I got dealt the unlucky card

C (x32010@1)         Cadd9 (x32030@1)     G (320003@1)Though the buildup was fun

C (x32010@1)  Cadd9 (x32030@1)        G (320003@1)The letdown wasn't worth it all

C (x32010@1)            Cadd9 (x32030@1)      G (320003@1)So I stole us our midnight drinks

C (x32010@1)         Cadd9 (x32030@1)           G (320003@1)And he got dealt our morning fix

C (x32010@1)              Cadd9 (x32030@1) G (320003@1)Then we let the honesty pour

C (x32010@1)                  Cadd9 (x32030@1)    G (320003@1)Until it knocked us out into a deep sleep

C (x32010@1)   Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)Into a bad dream (Oooh, oooh)

C (x32010@1)    Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)Is this a bad dream?

C (x32010@1)         Cadd9 (x32030@1)         G (320003@1)He said he used to be like me

C (x32010@1)        Cadd9 (x32030@1)              G (320003@1)A musical mess, depressed with anxiety

C (x32010@1)      Cadd9 (x32030@1)               G (320003@1)My ears only took half of his advice

C (x32010@1)        Cadd9 (x32030@1)            G (320003@1)Happiness comes so easily to him (Oooh, Oooh)

C (x32010@1)  Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)For me it's a fight (Oooh, oooh)

C (x32010@1)   Cadd9 (x32030@1)       G (320003@1)It's always been a fight



Chorus 2
Em (022000@1)                   G (320003@1)             C (x32010@1)There's nothing in between lovers and friends

Cadd9    G
 When it comes down to it

Em (022000@1)                    G (320003@1)                          C (x32010@1)So you've made up your mind, and I'm not worth your time

Cadd9 (x32030@1)        G (320003@1)But I can be useful in your life

Em (022000@1)                    G (320003@1)                           C (x32010@1)I'll push the pedal in deep, you're in the passenger seat

Cadd9    G
 I'll get us there as fast as I can

Em (022000@1)                       G (320003@1)                          C (x32010@1)So we can go our separate ways, I mean this was just a stage

Cadd9 (x32030@1)     G (320003@1)Of the rest of our lives

Em (022000@1)                     G (320003@1)                          C (x32010@1)I'm growing too weak to fight, at least I gave you a try...



Outro
 Cadd9, G

C (x32010@1)     Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)I just spoke too soon

C (x32010@1)    Cadd9 (x32030@1)   G (320003@1)Did I speak too soon?
