Intro:
C G C F Am G C

Verse 1:
   C              G       C             F
I stood in the place where you fucked me and thought about how I'd never see you again

      C             G      F                C        G
I still sleep in the room where you dumped me, voices still in the walls and I'll bring home new friends

    C            G    C          F
Gotta shake off these nasty addictions, to gratification and self-flagellation

   Am                G
It's too late in the evening and it's too late in general
  F             C        G
I miss having meaning and a distraction from myself

 C          G             C        F
Want to be struck by new love's lightning all fucked up dripping wet and frightening

        Am     G                 F     C   G
Or just have something that leaves me smiling to myself as I walk back home


Chorus:
        Am            G         C
But I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord
      Am          G           C
And I was less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford
        Am             G
And you were less like your old self and more like your mother
     F              C        G
I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

      Am          G           C
You are less like a lover and more like a landlord


Verse 2:
 C          G         C      F
Said I'll be your emergency contact if you kiss me when you get back
   Am             G            C
I called you, I had to, went straight to your message bank

      C             G
Wanted to make up for a lost time, make up for a lost cause
  C      F       Am         G                C
Would've stood tall, but for once in my life I wasn't the one who pushed for the fall

  C           G             C         F
So one of these days I'm gonna drop dead and you'll only remember the nice things I said
        Am                   G
So put your rose-coloured glasses on, pretend you're fine until I'm gone
   F        C     G
And you can do whatever the fuck you want


Chorus:
        Am           G          C
And I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord
          Am          G           C
And you'd become less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford
        Am             G
And you were less of your old self and more like your mother
     F               C       G
I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

    Am           G         C
I was less like a lover and more like a landlord


Verse 3:
      C              G      G
I still sleep in the room where you dumped me
     C              G        G
Write songs about how I'm never speaking to you again


Shouldn't make any difference, surroundings don't influence

The person that I think I am x4:


Chorus:
         Am          G          C
And I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord
          Am          G           C
And you'd become less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford
        Am             G
And you were less of your old self and more like your mother
     F             C         G
I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

      Am           G          C
You were less like a lover and more like a landlord
