Bb Bb/A ( x2 )
πΈ Verse 1:
Bb Bb/A
I have nightmares each week about that Friday in May
Bb Bb/A
One phone call from you and my entire world was changed
Gm Gm/A
Trust that you betrayed, confusion that still lingers
Gm Gm/A
You took everything I loved and crushed it in between your fingers
Bb Bb/A
And I doubt you ever think about the damage that you did
Bb Bb/A
But I hold on to every detail like my life depends on it
Gm Bb/A
My undying love, now I hold it like a grudge
Gm Bb/A
And I hear your voice every time that I think I'm not enough
πΈ Chorus:
Ebmaj7 Eb/A
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream
Eb Eb/C
How could anybody do the things you did so easily?
Bb Bbsus2
And I say I don't care, I say that I'm fine
Bb
But you know I can't let it go
Bbsus2 Cmadd11
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long
Gm F Eb
It takes strength to forgive, but I don't feel strong
πΈ Verse 2:
Bb Bb/A
The arguments that I have won against you in my head
Bb Bb/A
In the shower, in the car and in the mirror before bed
Gm Gm/A
Yeah, I'm so tough when I'm alone and I make you feel so guilty
Gm Gm/A
And I fantasize about a time you're a little fucking sorry
Bb Bb/A
And I try to understand why you would do this all to me
Bb Bb/A
You must be insecure, you must be so unhappy
Gm Gm/A
And I know in my heart hurt people hurt people
Gm Gm/A
And we both drew blood, but, man, those cuts were never equal
πΈ Chorus:
Ebmaj7 Eb/A
And I try to be tough, but I wanna scream
Eb Eb/C
How could anybody do the things you did so easily?
Bb Bbsus2
And I say I don't care, I say that I'm fine
Bb
But you know I can't let it go
Bbsus2 Cmadd11
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long
Gm Bb/F Eb Bb
It takes strength to forgive, but I don't feel strong
πΈ Bridge:
Gm Cm Eb
Ooh, do you think I deserved it all?
Gm Cm Eb
Ooh, your flower's filled with vitriol
Fsus4 F6
You built me up to watch me fall
F7
You have everything and you still want more
πΈ Outro:
Eb/Bb Eb/A
I try to be tough, I try to be mean
Eb Eb/C
But even after all this, you're still everything to me
Bb Bbsus2
And I know you don't care, I guess that that's fine
Bb
But you know I can't let it go
Bbsus2 Cm
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried for so long
Gm F Eb F
It takes strength to forgive, but I'm not quite sure I'm there yet
Gm F Eb Bb/D
It takes strength to forgive, but
