Tough Love chords by Gracie Abrams

• Difficulty: Intermediate

♥ Verse 1:
  Am                           C
I took a train to Boston and I wanted to cry
     F                                C
He's gone, I'm twenty four and it's a Saturday night
  Am                             C
I ran and took his jacket with a rip in the side
C
I hate when we fight, it sucks when we fight
    Am                           C
But honestly whatever, he's just one of the boys
     F                               C
I'll date for like a summer and I'll leave when I'm bored
     Am                               C
This train is full of strangers but I might like 'em more
       F
Said I might like 'em more
          C
Yeah, no, I like 'em more

♥ Pre-Chorus 1:
                      F
And that's just tough love
      C               Gsus4
But I mean it, really mean it
C       F              C
I'm not charmed so I'm leaving


♥ Chorus:
  C                              F
I laughed the second he tried to call my bluff
  Am                      F
I guess it's always funny until it's not
        C                F
When I left him there to feel it
         Am                 F
Couldn't guess what I'd be leavin' for
   C                                F
No chance I'll waste my twenties on random men
    Am                          F
Not one of them is cooler than all my friends
      C                 F
And I hate to leave him bleedin'
      Am                  F       Am
But I know, know what I'm leavin' for


♥ Verse 2:
     Am                         C
I'm walkin' by the river and I stopped by the boats
   F                                   C
At night it's kind of tempting just to see if you'd float
    Am                             C
The benches by the Charles gave me somewhere to go
  F                             G
I feel like I'm home, there's a bar down the road
    Am                          C
I'm wasted with the sister of a boy that I met
        F                                G
Through someone back in college, she's a weird intellect
    Am                                  C
She liked to tell the truth and she was harsh but direct
    F                        G
Her boyfriends all left, she had that effect


♥ Pre-Chorus 2:
                      F
And that's just tough love
           C           Gsus4
And you're lucky to receive it, right?
C     F           C
He'll crumble to pieces


♥ Chorus:
  C                              F
I laughed the second he tried to call my bluff
  Am                      F
I guess it's always funny until it's not
        C                F
When I left him there in pieces
         Am                 F
Couldn't guess what I'd be leavin' for
          C                                F
No chance I'll waste my twenties on random men
    Am                           F
Not one of them is smarter than all my friends
      C                 F
And I hate to leave him bleedin'
      Am                  F       Am
But I know, know what I'm leavin' for


♥ Post-Chorus:
F
Ooh
      Am                  F       C
Oh, I know, know what I'm leaving for
F
Mm
      Am                  F
Oh, I know, know what I'm leavin'


♥ Bridge:
Dm                Am7               F             G                   Dm7
No, I'm not gonna miss the way he'd kick me in my bed while sleepin'
                  Am7              F                    G                     Dm7
And I'm not gonna miss his shitty friends and nights of their binge drinking
                  Am7          F              G               Dm7
And I'm not gonna miss his old inflated ego, shallow thinking
                  Am7                 F               G
And I'm not gonna miss denying that I got my own damn reasons


♥ Chorus:
  C                              F
I laughed the second he tried to call my bluff
  Am                      F
I guess it's always funny until it's not
        C                F
When I left him there to feel it
         Am                 F
Couldn't guess what I'd be leavin' for
   C                                F
No chance I'll waste my twenties on random men
    Am                           F
Not one of them is tougher than all my friends
      C                 F
And I hate to leave him bleedin'
      Am                  F       Am
But I know, know what I'm leavin' for
