Intro:
A minorAm FF C majorC C majorC


Verse 1:
    A minorAm
It was open and closing
   FF          C majorC
And hopelessly hoping for sure
     A minorAm
We were here, we were ghosting
FF           C majorC
Both of us coasting on ’just give a little more’


Pre Chorus:
    G+G           A minorAm
It was all out my hands when you pulled the trigger
  FF                 C majorC
And I kissed your friends ’cause your friend said you kissed her
   G+G            A minorAm            FF
And I didn’t flinch, and the lights didn’t flicker and I
 FF
I fell apart

Chorus:
      C majorC   C/BC/B    A minorAm   E minorEm
You were my best nights and worst fights
   FF    G+G   C majorC
And couldn’t care less
       C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm  E minorEm
You were my gold rush to cold touch
FF  G+G   C majorC
Favourite ex
   C majorC     C/BC/B   A minorAm      E minorEm
And all of the others cancel out each other
   FF    G+G    A minorAm
And it’s always you left
      C majorC  C/BC/B  A minorAm    E minorEm
You were my no sleep, cried for weeks
FF  G+G  C majorC
Favourite ex


A minorAm FF C majorC C majorC


Verse 2:
    A minorAm
It was stabs in the back
     FF                 C majorC
And the nice things you said when you were wasted
    A minorAm
I was looking for something
   FF            C majorC
And changing the one thing you hated


Pre Chorus:
    G+G           A minorAm
It was all out my hands when you pulled the trigger
  FF                 C majorC
And I kissed your friends ’cause your friend said you kissed her
   G+G            A minorAm            FF
And I didn’t flinch, and the lights didn’t flicker and I
 FF
I fell apart


Chorus:
      C majorC   C/BC/B    A minorAm   E minorEm
You were my best nights and worst fights
   FF    G+G   C majorC
And couldn’t care less
       C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm  E minorEm
You were my gold rush to cold touch
FF  G+G   C majorC
Favourite ex
   C majorC     C/BC/B   A minorAm      E minorEm
And all of the others cancel out each other
   FF    G+G    A minorAm
And it’s always you left
      C majorC  C/BC/B  A minorAm    E minorEm
You were my no sleep, cried for weeks
FF  G+G  C majorC
