🎸 Chorus:
D                      E
At this point, I am sounding like a broken record
A                            F#m
Tried to forget you and I've given it
My best-est effort
D                              E
I think it's cool that you've found someone
A                       F#m
But not before I have found myself another one



🎸 Verse 1:
D

We used to be friends
E
Now we're barely talking
A
Such a great mystery
F#m
How we would just keep walking, ah
D                   E
After a heartbreak that destroys us
A                             F#m
Our ego tells us to be happy, but it's pointless

Refrain 1:
D            E
And now you found yourself a keeper
A                         F#m
Mentally preparing myself when I meet her
D                  E
Say nice things, like "I like how you smell"
       A                              F#m
And "I used to be so close to your boyfriend"
               D   E   A  F#m
Oh can't you tell


Refrain 2:
D              E
Whenever we run into each other
A
I don't ask about your ex
F#m
No I don't even bother
D
I guess I don't wanna know
   E
If you got back together
     A            F#m
So we end up, small talking 'bout the weather

🎸 Verse 3:
D
We used to be tight
E
Now we're barely seeing
A
Each other 'cause
F#m
I don't even know how to be in
D                E
Your life, don't fit in anymore
A
I've lost that privilege
F#m
The moment you walked out that door

Refrain 1:
D            E
And now you found yourself a keeper
A                         F#m
Mentally preparing myself when I meet her
D                  E
Say nice things, like "I like how you smell"
       A                              F#m
And "I used to be so close to your boyfriend"
              D    E
Oh can't you tell

Break:
A
The way that we're looking at each other
F#m              D    E   A  F#m
Sometimes I can't tell

🎸 Bridge:
D
And I'm so tired of
E
Waiting for a new love
A
Just so everybody could see
F#m
That I've moved on
D
And I'm so tired of
E
Waiting for a good love
A
So everybody could see
F#m
That I'm not hung up
