Capo 3rd fret


[Intro]

Em Em Bm Bm C C G G


[Verse]

Em Em Bm Bm C C G G
I want to go back, forget that it's over
Em Em Bm Bm C C G G
Painted in black, when you left me alone
Em Em Bm Bm C C
I never knew, she was sleeping next door
G G Em Em Bm Bm C C
With the kid I grew up with, and I can't go back to her
G G D D
Anymore, no more




[Chorus]

Em Em C C G G D D
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay
Em Em C C G G D D
And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
Em Em C C G G D D
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
Em Em Bm Bm C C G G
No, I can't lift the weight


[Verse]

Em Em Bm Bm C C G G
Put you in the past, try to forget you cause it's over
Em Em Bm Bm C C G G
And every time you ask I'll pretend I'm okay
Em Em Bm Bm
You're inside my head,
C C
In the middle of the night when I don't feel right
G G Em Em Bm Bm C C G G D D
I dream I can hold you, and I can't go back to you anymore, yeah, yeah



[Chorus]

Em Em C C G G D D
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay
Em Em C C G G D D
And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
Em Em C C G G D D
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
Em Em C C G G D D
But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight


[Bridge]

Em Em D D
And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight
C C G G
Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks
Em Em D D
And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight
C C G G
Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks
Em Em D D
And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight
C C G G
Yeah, you lower your standards and I raise the stakes
Em Em D D C C G G
And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't lift the weight


[Chorus]

Em Em C C G G D D
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay
Em Em C C G G D D
And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
Em Em C C G G D D
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
Em Em C C G G D D
But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight


[Chorus]

Em Em C C G G D D
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay
Em Em C C G G D D
And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
Em Em C C
But then you try to take me back
G G D D Em Em Bm Bm C C G G
Say someday you will change, but I don't wanna wait
