This is a fun and catchy tune. I have given you the chords used and the 2nd guitar part
first with their cooresponding chord names and put the chord names with the words of the
song below. Listen to the song to get the rhythms and when exactly to play each and when
to play the 2nd guitar part. Have fun! If you have any questions, feel free to email me!

You could also capo the first fret and play the G#, D#D# and C#C# chords like:
G#:[431144]
D#:[x11343]
C#:[x43121]

VERSE: Palm Mute all of this part

G#G#   G#G#   D#D#   C#C#
My Girlfriend, my dumb donut
G#G#      G#G#       D#D#  C#C#
Went out to a party just the other night
  G#G#     G#G#   D#D#       C#C#
But three hours later, seven shots of jager
G#G#       G#G#      D#D#   C#C#
She was in the bedroom with another guy.

PRE-CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

   G#G#      G#G#      D#D# C#C#
And I don't really want to know
     G#G#   G#G#     D#D# C#C#
So don't tell me anymore
   G#G#      G#G#      D#D# C#C#
And I really don't want to hear
     G#G#    G#G#    D#D# C#C#
About her feet all up in the air.


CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

G#G#     G#G#   D#D#      C#C#
I'm not the one who acted like a ho
G#G#     G#G#   D#D#       C#C#
Why must I be the one who has to know
G#G#     G#G#   D#D#      C#C#
I'm not the one who messed up big time
  G#G#      G#G#   FF      D#D#
So spare me the details if you don't mind.


VERSE: ALL PALM MUTED

  G#G#     G#G#
Now I can understand
D#D#         C#C#
Friends who want to tell me
G#G#         G#G#      D#D#  C#C#
Think they're gonna help me open up my eyes
    G#G#   G#G#
But the play-by-play
D#D#        C#C#
Makes me want to lose it
G#G#       G#G#      D#D#    C#C#
Every time you do it man it turns the knife.


PRE-CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

   G#G#      G#G#      D#D# C#C#
And I don't really want to know
     G#G#   G#G#     D#D# C#C#
So don't tell me anymore
   G#G#      G#G#      D#D# C#C#
And I really don't want to hear
     G#G#    G#G#    D#D# C#C#
About her feet all up in the air.


CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

G#G#     G#G#   D#D#      C#C#
I'm not the one who acted like a ho
G#G#     G#G#   D#D#       C#C#
Why must I be the one who has to know
G#G#     G#G#   D#D#      C#C#
I'm not the one who messed up big time
  G#G#      G#G#   FF      D#D#
So spare me the details if you don't mind.

BRIDGE:

F5F5             A#5A#5
  Now I don't need to hear
                 D#5D#5  C5C5
About the sounds they were making
F5F5            A#5A#5
 And I don't need to hear
            D#5D#5
About how long it was taking
               C#5C#5
Or How the walls they were shaking.


PRE-VERSE: play with the 2nd guitar part

VERSE: ALL Palm Muted

  G#G#    G#G#  D#D#      C#C#
Now lying in bed, wallowing in sorrow
G#G#     G#G#        D#D#     C#C#
Missing the tomorrow that we could have had
G#G#         G#G#  D#D#    C#C#
running through my head, over and over
G#G#       G#G#        D#D#   C#C#
Things I never told her now just make me sad.


VERSE 2: Not Palm Muted

    G#G#    G#G#
And it drives me insane
D#D#        C#C#
Sitting with the vision
G#G#       G#G#       D#D#  C#C#
Stuck with that image burned into my brain
   G#G#   G#G#
And I feel so dumb
   D#D#      C#C#
That I could ever trust her
   G#G#      G#G#
While someone else f***ed her
   D#D#   C#C#
Then walked away.


PRE-CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

   G#G#      G#G#      D#D# C#C#
And I don't really want to know
     G#G#   G#G#     D#D# C#C#
So don't tell me anymore
   G#G#      G#G#      D#D# C#C#
And I really don't want to hear
     G#G#    G#G#    D#D# C#C#
About her feet all up in the air.


CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

G#G#     G#G#   D#D#      C#C#
I'm not the one who acted like a ho
G#G#     G#G#   D#D#       C#C#
Why must I be the one who has to know
G#G#     G#G#   D#D#      C#C#
I'm not the one who messed up big time
  G#G#      G#G#   FF      D#D#
So spare me the details if you don't mind.


(The band goes into a repeat thing, G#, G#, D#D# C#C# are repeated with the same rhythm as
before, just listen and go with it.)
