🎸 Verse 1:

B         G#m
You're leaving at midnight
         F#     E
But that doesn't sit right
         B
You call your dad
         G#m
And hide your location
       F#    A
With no hesitation

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
 B
You were attached
G#m
Until you snapped
 F#            E          B
Used to be kind now you're out of your goddamn mind
       G#m
I used to be patient
         F#
But now, I'm just vacant


🎸 Chorus:
   B
I was so sentimental
      G#m
And you came for my head
      F#
We were both on the brink
    E
I was holding my breath
     B
You were so fucking twisted
      G#m
And it's hard to be indifferent
     F#
When I know
       E
Just be honest with me, babe
     B
Cast me out with the cynics
      G#m
And the saints all alike
      F#
You're a runaway truck
     E
I'm a guy on a bike
      B
You were so fucking shitty
     G#m
Get me out of this city
      F#
'Cause I know
       E
Just be honest with me, babe

With me, babe


🎸 Verse 2:
B          G#m
You say you're in midtown
        F#     E
To stay at a friends house
         B
But you're at home
         G#m
Counting your blessings
         F#    A
It must get depressing


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
 B
Don't call me back
  G#m
I'm used to that
   F#
It's just been a while
       E           B
Since you've actually made me smile
            G#m
There's something about you
         F#
That I couldn't see through


🎸 Chorus:
   B
I was so sentimental
      G#m
And you came for my head
      F#
We were both on the brink
    E
I was holding my breath
     B
You were so fucking twisted
      G#m
And it's hard to be indifferent
     F#
When I know
       E
Just be honest with me, babe
     B
Cast me out with the cynics
      G#m
And the saints all alike
      F#
You're a runaway truck
     E
I'm a guy on a bike
      B
You were so fucking shitty
     G#m
Get me out of this city
      F#
'Cause I know
       E
Just be honest with me, babe

With me, babe
