♫ Verse 1:
BB
London 2020
                     E MajorE
Boy and a girl broke up, yeah, it's two a penny
                         BB
And I been tryna make a big step forward
Saw you, it was awkward
E MajorE
Nothing like I thought would happen happened


BB                                                E MajorE
I was so in love, and that don't come off in the wash
Kinda hope it does, oh
                              BB
'Cause you're seeing someone pretty and I hate her guts
                              E MajorE
So I'll be telling you she's nice on the bus home

♫ Chorus:
         BB
           E MajorE
It didn't work like I thought it would
         BB
And I resent you just a little if I'm honest
           E MajorE
But one of us has gotta try to keep a promise
       BB
And I swore that I'd swallow my pride
         E MajorE
And you swore you would do better this time
                 G# minorG#m                   F#F#                    E MajorE
Well I might be bitter and twisted and broken and petty and lying
But at least I'm trying
At least I'm trying
At least I'm trying

♫ Verse 2:
BB
Three shots, lemon drops
                        E MajorE
One for being lost and alone in your early twenties
                                 BB
One for being obsessed with someone who puts you secondary
                             E MajorE
One for calling guys with guitars in a cemetery
Just me? Okay!
BB                                                E MajorE
.If I'm being frank, I want a "sorry" but I'll settle for a handshake
                          BB
                     E MajorE
So many blank slates I could build a whole fucking house

♫ Chorus:
         BB
We were bad but we're gonna be good
           E MajorE
It didn't work like I thought it would
         BB
And I resent you just a little if I'm honest
           E MajorE
But one of us has gotta try to keep a promise
       BB
And I swore that I'd swallow my pride
         E MajorE
And you swore you would do better this time
                 G# minorG#m                   F#F#                    E MajorE
Well I might be bitter and twisted and broken and petty and lying
But at least I'm trying
At least I'm trying

♫ Bridge:
    BB
Not friends
No, we're somewhere in between
              E MajorE                                                       BB
'Cause you're awful and I miss you and I killed you in my dream last night
Even then you didn't care
        E MajorE
It's a low when even in my dreams you still don't want me there
        BB
Got friends, got at least a healthy five
           E MajorE
Yeah, some people think I'm funny, baby, don't look so surprised
    BB
We think that your girlfriend is a bore
           E MajorE
But we're nice to her in public cause we're grown up and mature
     BB
Not friends
                                              E MajorE
'Cause when I asked you on the train why you hurt me and you couldn't really actually explain
   BB
I cried, then I told you it was cool
           E MajorE
God, you haven't changed at all

♫ Chorus:
         BB
           E MajorE
It didn't work like I thought it would
         BB
And I resent you just a little if I'm honest
           E MajorE
But one of us has gotta try to keep a promise
       BB
And I swore that I'd swallow my pride
         E MajorE
And you swore you would do better this time
                 G# minorG#m                   F#F#                    E MajorE
Well I might be bitter and twisted and broken and petty and lying
                  G# minorG#m                   F#F#                        E MajorE
And you might be awful like all of the time, yeah, it's almost inspiring
But at least I'm trying
BB
..At least I'm
