Verse 1:
G
The light in the kitchen woke me up
D
But didn't even notice I left it on
F#m7
I guess I dozed off for an hour or two
Bm7
When I got up, all your stuff was gone
Chorus:
G
And I don't really know what to believe
D
I left the light on, you left me
F#m7
You packed up our life and our history
Bm7
But left your bracelet on the counter
G
I guess times have changed and I miss the signs
D
And sisters can turn into Irish goodbyes
F#m7
Yeah, breakups with boyfriends make me cry
Bm7
But breakups with best friends hurt more every time
Verse 2:
G
I bought a new dress at the vintage shop
D
Then overthought it the whole way home, mm
F#m7
And I used a clothes hanger to zip it up
Bm7
I guess I'm still learning how to live alone
Chorus:
G
Platonic love is a funny thing
D
From friendship bracelets to breaking the lease
F#m7
You'd be my maid of honor if you still liked me
Bm7
I can't glue this back together
G
You moved out to Boston, or so I've heard
D
but I still got your lipgloss in my purse
F#m7
Oh, breakups with boyfriends really hurt
Bm7
But breakups with best friends hurt a whole lot worse
Bridge:
G
Call it off to me in desperation
D
That I'm sitting by the phone waiting
F#m7
For you to call, I just wanna know
Bm7
How could you hate me?
G
You keep testing all the words I'm saying
D
So easily, you're complicating
F#m7
But I've said it all, I just wanna know
Bm7
How could you hate me?
Outro:
G
How could you hate me?
D
How could you hate me? Mm
F#m7
After everything
Bm7
Oh, how could you hate me?
G
How could you hate me?
D
After everything
F#m7 Bm7
