Verse 1:
Asus2
Days ache and nights are long
C#m7              Bsus4
Two years and still you're not gone
            Bsus4
Guess I'm still holding on



Asus2
Drag my name through the dirt
C#m7           Bsus4
Somehow it doesn't hurt though
              Bsus4
Guess you're still holding on
(G#)  Asus2
  You told your friends you want me dead
  C#m7            Bsus4
And said that I did everything wrong
         Bsus4
And you're not wrong

Pre-Chorus:
   Asus2
Well
I'll take all the vitriol
  C#m7              Bsus4
But not the thought of you moving on


Chorus:
        A  Asus2
'Cause I'm not ready
  C#m7             Bsus4
To find out you know how to forget me
  Bsus4            Asus2
I'd rather hear how much you regret me
  C#m7            Bsus4
And pray to God that you never met me
    Bsus4
Than forget me
   (G#)  Asus2
Oh-ooh-oh
I hate to know I made you cry
  C#m7*              Bsus4
But love to know I cross your mind, babe, oh I
Bsus4           Asus2  A Asus2 A
Even aftеr all it'd still wreck me

Guess I still feel the same

Know you can't stand my face
C#m7             Bsus4
Some scars you can't erase, babe
             Bsus4
Guess you still feel the same

  Well
I'll take all the vitriol

The second set of chords below is an attempt to capture the voicings Lewis used in an acoustic
Instagram performance, a brief clip of which can be found here:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/N8JGnEsu1hM

He seems to play this in various ways (as he does with many of his songs).

For the video linked above, he had the capo on 6 and he did not jump the octave to sing the chorus.
To play these chords along with the official video, the capo should be on 4.

The notes in parentheses are just walking notes between chords and chords with an * indicate a single strum.
