Verse 1:
FF                Bb majorBb
 It was so nice throwing big parties
                 FF
Jump into the pool from the balcony
               Bb majorBb
Everyone swimming in a champagne sea
FF                    Bb majorBb
 And there are no rules when you show up here
               FF
Bass beat rattling the chandelier
                Bb majorBb
Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year

Pre-Chorus:
  Bb majorBb               C majorC
So why'd you have to rain on my parade?
        DmDm    Bb majorBb     C majorC
I'm shaking my head, I'm locking the gates

Chorus:
             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC  FF
This is why we can't have nice things, darling
            DmDm
Because you break them
         Bb majorBb
I had to take them away
C majorC             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC
This is why we can't have nice things, ho-ney
FF               DmDm              Bb majorBb
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
C majorC
This is why we can't have nice things

Verse 2:
FF                Bb majorBb
 It was so nice being friends again
                 FF
There I was, giving you a second chance
                        Bb majorBb
But then you stabbed in the back while shaking my hand
FF
 And therein lies the issue
           Bb majorBb
Friends don't try to trick you
                     FF
Get you on the phone and mind-twist you
               Bb majorBb
And so I took an axe to a mended fence

Pre-Chorus:
    Bb majorBb             C majorC
But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately
      DmDm     Bb majorBb C majorC
If only you weren't so shady

Chorus:
             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC  FF
This is why we can't have nice things, darling
            DmDm
Because you break them
         Bb majorBb
I had to take them away
C majorC             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC
This is why we can't have nice things, ho-ney
FF               DmDm              Bb majorBb
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
C majorC
This is why we can't have

Bridge:
FF                 Bb majorBb
Here's a toast to my real friends
                      FF
They don't care about that he-said-she-said
           Bb majorBb
And here's to my baby
                     FF
He ain't reading what they call me lately
            Bb majorBb
And here's to my momma

Had to listen to all this drama
  FF     DmDm
And here's to you
       Bb majorBb             C majorC
'Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do
N.C
Haha, I can't even say it with a straight face

Chorus:
             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC    FF
This is why we can't have nice things, darling (darling)
           DmDm
Because you break them
            Bb majorBb
I had to take them away
C majorC             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC
This is why we can't have nice things, ho-ney
FF               D MajorD               Bb majorBb
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
C majorC             FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC                  FF
This is why we can't have nice things, darling (And here's to my real friends)
            DmDm
Because you break them
            Bb majorBb
I had to take them away
C majorC          FF
 And here's to my baby
FF  DmDm   Bb majorBb C majorC
Nice things, ho-ney

(He didn't care about that he-said-she-said)
FF               DmDm              Bb majorBb
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
C majorC
