This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things Uke tab by Taylor Swift

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

[Pre-Chorus]
   Bb                              C 
So why'd you have to rain on my parade?
               Dm        Bb          C 
I'm shaking my head, I'm locking the gates

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

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

[Pre-Chorus]
        Bb                         C 
But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately
            Dm         Bb C 
If only you weren't so shady

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

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

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

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

(He didn't care about that he-said-she-said)
F                             Dm                            Bb 
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?
C                        
This is why we can't have nice things
