Verse 1:
Am                         C
  You must think that I'm stupid
G                           Dm
  You must think that I'm a fool
Am                        C
  You must think that I'm new to this
G                            Dm
  But I have seen this all before

Pre-Chorus:
    Am
I'm never gonna let you close to me
C
Even though you mean the most to me
       G                        Dm
'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
       Am
So I'm never gonna get too close to you
C
Even when I mean the most to you
   G                               Dm
In case you go and leave me in the dirt

Refrain:
               Am                         C
Every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
                   G                               Dm
And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
                   Am                         C
And every time you walk out, the less I love you
                       G                           Dm
Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad but it's true

Chorus:
                         Am                            C
I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
                         G                             Dm
I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes)

Verse 2:
Am                            C
  I know you're thinking I'm heartless
G                             Dm
  I know you're thinking I'm cold
Am                        C
  I'm just protecting my innocence
G                         Dm
  I'm just protecting my soul

Pre-Chorus:
    Am
I'm never gonna let you close to me
C
Even though you mean the most to me
       G                        Dm
'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
       Am
So I'm never gonna get too close to you
C
Even when I mean the most to you
   G                               Dm
In case you go and leave me in the dirt

Refrain:
               Am                        C
Every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
                   G                               Dm
And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
                   Am                         C
And every time you walk out, the less I love you
                        G                         Dm
Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad but it's true

Chorus:
                         Am                            C
I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
                         G                             Dm
I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
                          Am                              C
No way that you'll see me cry (No way that you'll see me cry)
                         G                             Dm
I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
Am                                             C
  No, no, no, no, no (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
G                                                      Dm
  No, no, no, no, no, no, no (I'm way too good at goodbyes)
Am                            C
  (No way that you'll see me cry)
G                           Dm
  (I'm way too good at goodbyes)

To align with my world
  Am
I think of you while I sleep

Together unfold

Am                                      F
I choose me, and I know that's selfish, love

But I can't deny it, I just don't feel the same
F
I'll always love you

But tonight's the night I choose to walk away

Swore to never change

Oh, have you ever called
       E
I will burst straight back
F#m
Give you my forgiveness
        E
And the shirt off my back
   F#m
No friends to turn to
        E
Yeah, I messed up that
              F#m
Wish we could smoke again
           E
Just for a day, oh

Pre-Chorus:
          G
Funny how time goes by
       D
Had respect for myself

You reached the limit

I wasn't enough

It's like the fire replaced all the love

I've been burning

I see you in the morning, feel your fingers in my hair
Em                               F
Sometimes I still pretend you're there
Am                          C
It hits me without warning, your reflection walking by
Em                         F
But I know it's only in my mind

Pre-Chorus:

And Lord knows there's no relief
            Am
You held my heart in your fingertips
         C
So now I drown in my bitterness

That's all that really matters to me
Am                   C

          Am                                                G
Won't you give me the part of myself that I can't give back?
