Intro:
B-C#m E
       Maybe you were right after all
Abm
   Maybe I'm just bad news
B-C#m E
       I've been drowning in memories
Abm
   Call it residual blues
A
   I fell asleep watching 
  B
Veronica Mars again
(Hey!)


Interlude: E--B-C#m-E-- x4


Verse 2:
E
   I still fuss with that tourniquet
Abm
   And tried to squeeze on your dreams
B-C#m E
       Slung it on- it's a perfect fit
Abm
   What do you suppose that means?
A
  My parents keep asking when 
       B
you're planning on coming around


Chorus 1:
        E     F#m     A
If we'd only stayed together
        E        F#m     A
I might not have fallen apart
        E         F#m
But the words you said 
   A
destroyed my planet
   E      F#m     A
I stall before I start
   E      F#m     A
I stall before I start
anything at all


Interlude: E--B-C#m-E-- x4


Verse 3:
E
  Got a job at a common ground
F#m
   I finally shaved off that beard
B-C#m E
       I sold my Xbox to 
Jimmy down the street
Abm
   Hell I even quit smoking weed
A
  I'm taking an online course
    B
I'm learning to speak Japanese


Chorus 2:
        E     F#m     A
If we'd only stayed together
        E        F#m     A
I might not have fallen apart
        E         F#m
But the words you said 
   A
destroyed my planet
   E      F#m     A
I stall before I start
   E      F#m     A
I stall before I start
anything at...


Bridge:
   B  C#m                A
...all   The things that used 
           E         F#m
to mean so much to me
     B   C#m           A
have gone   the way of dinosaurs
E                    F#m
hopes and dreams and everything
B  C#m           A
All   I want for you to be 
   E        F#m
is happy or something
        B C#m        A
I guess a-nything is better 
         E
than the time you spent hoping
    F#m
I'd get it sorted out


Interlude: E--B-C#m-E-- x8


Verse 4:
A
  I sent you a post card
        B
But the post office sent it back
A
  They said the buildings been torn down
       B
I just miss what I thought we would have


Chorus 3:
        E     F#m     A
If we'd only stayed together
        E        F#m     A
I might not have fallen apart
        E         F#m
But the words you said 
   A
destroyed my planet
     E      F#m     A
It's all my fucking fault!


Chorus 4:
        E     F#m     A
If we'd only stayed together
        E        F#m     A
I might not have fallen apart
        E         F#m
But the words you said 
   A
destroyed my planet
   E      F#m     A
I stall before I start
   E      F#m     A
I stall before I start
         B  C#m(hold)
anything at all
