        Eb                         Ab   
        Last Friday night I wasn't me
                      Cm              Ab
        I was a still life trapped in eternity
                  Eb                  Ab                 Bb
        I was the focal point; out of focus, out of ink

        Eb                      Ab                  Cm             Ab
        And I've been wandering nightly through the garden of your heartache
               Eb                    Ab                     Bb 
        Always making a mess, always stumbling out the door
Ab (let ring)
        But I don't wanna be an asshole anymore


Chorus 1: (might be another chord in there for the whoa-ooh parts)

        Eb         Bb        Cm                 Ab
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, baby I'll be good to you
        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab       
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
        Eb         Bb        Cm                 Ab
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, baby I'll be good to you

                       Baby, baby I'll be good to you


Verse 2:
                Eb                  Ab   
        Another night, I devour the sun
               Cm                        Ab
        Plunge myself into the depths of oblivion 
             Eb                              Ab    Bb
        Yeah somewhere along the way I found wine  feels damn good just to bleed sometimes

                   Eb                        Ab(staccato)    Cm           Ab
        All I ever wanted was to make things right  Years of idleness and spite

                  Eb             Ab                       Bb 
        I push my emotions off a bridge, I've been taking them hostage with a shotgun

        Ab (let ring)
        Now I'm somewhere treading water, 
                  Ab (let ring)                      Ab (PM'd)
        Somewhere lost inside the man that I'm not
        silent
        But I don't wanna be an asshole anymore

        

Chorus 2: (might be another chord in there for the whoa-ooh parts)

        Eb         Bb        Cm                 Ab
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, baby I'll be good to you
        Eb         Bb        Cm                  Ab       
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
        Eb         Bb        Cm                 Ab          
        Whoooaa---oohhhh     Baby, baby I'll be good to you I'll be good to you, I'll be good, I'll be 
               Ab  G  F
good, I'll be gooooodddd

Outro:
Eb       Ab G  F (intro pattern)
I won?t lie no more about where I've been
Eb          Ab  G  F
And I won't pry no more over the people that you're hanging with

Cm              Eb           Ab   Bb
You're the only lover that I ever missed and have been hopelessly in love with

Eb           Ab  G     F 
Look at this tangle of thorns I don't wanna be an asshole anymore

Eb  Ab G F
         Yeah, I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Eb  Ab  G F
         Oh no, no, no
Ab  G F Eb
