♫ Verse:
                          G
You know better than I do
                    A   D
that I couldn't fix you

I swore in the moment
                G
you gave me a preview

Of what it would be like
                         D
if I’d signed off my whole life

To doing your dishes
                   Bm
and choosing my fights

     B       D             G         D
I've always been one to like strategy
          Bm              D
But you still can't play fair
      E
when everyone’s on your team

     D
I'm filling positions
      A    B
that never existed
   D
A silent protector
     A          Bm      D
who waited and listened
         G         D       A
A mother, a wife, going broke
        Bm  A    D
for the distance

How could you do this to me?

You knew and you let me believe
                   G         A
That you would be kinder to me
          G   A
than you were

Gmaj7
Beat me to all of the punches,
                 A
you told me you loved me

I cried on the highway,
                                 Gmaj7
didn't that count for something?

Waste away in an airport
                    A
just to clean your apartment

It's only seamless to love you
                         Bm
when you're looking away

                A
I'll take the bruises that
    G
lie under my skin
       Bm           A
You'll only leave marks
                       E
when you know you can win

     G
I'm filling positions
      A      Bm
that never existed
   G
A silent protector
     A             Bm
who waited and listened
   G                      A
A mother, a wife, going broke
         Bm   A
for the distance
F#m            G          A
How could you do this to me?
    F#m           G         A
You knew and you let me believe
     F#m            G        A
That you would be kinder to me
          G
than you were

        A                  Bm
And I’m hurting, ‘cause I heard
               A
we’re both in Lubbock
           G                 A
In our own ways, I bet you love it
          Bm                    A
So you'll go for someone worth fucking
        Gmaj7
What a shame,
                      A
‘cause I know you’ll leave him
            Bm
And you'll smile
                           A
like when you hung up that evening
       G             A
It was us, until it wasn't
       Bm                      A
Now I live in someone else's apartment

       G A   Bm  A D
And I love it
       G A   Bm
And I love it
