Intro: D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
D MajorD B minorBm
Found a cheap therapist
A augmentedA
Started taking vitamins
G+G
And gave up on all my friends
D MajorD B minorBm
I bought some self help books
A augmentedA G+G
Stopped giving myself dirty looks
D MajorD
And started breathing again
B minorBm A augmentedA
Got really into dirty martinis
G+G
Stuck a rainbow key chain on my rear view
D MajorD B minorBm
To remind myself the pot of gold
A augmentedA G+G
Is always just up the road
D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
Bottom line, I survived yeah
D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
Spent all year being so dramatic
D MajorD B minorBm
It was sad and I was lonely
A augmentedA G+G
But I'm standing here alive in this moment
D MajorD B minorBm
Why's it gotta be, why's it gotta be
A augmentedA G+G
Tragic, tragic
D MajorD B minorBm
In the spirit of full disclosure
A augmentedA G+G
After 5 years it was over, moved out,
D MajorD B minorBm
Found an apartment across town
A augmentedA G+G
Wrote a whole album about it, called my sister to cry about it
D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA
And listened to Chris Martin sing "Magic" for the 99th time
G+G D MajorD
Left my heart in two dozen states
B minorBm A augmentedA
And got a credit card, couldn't pay it off

Guess sometimes you just surprise yourself
N.C
With what you do to move on
