Gmaj7You moved so gracefully, Cnothing at all like me
Gmaj7Give us a smile and wave, you always did know to Ckill one, baby
DI can't remember ever Cfeeling this way
DA burning feeling rushing Call through my veins
[Chorus]
What got Gmaj7in me is something more than envy
I should be a- Cbove it, I know, but I just can't let it go
You might have Gmaj7heard it, I said you don't deserve him
But girl, don't take it Cpersonally, 'cause it's just j-j-j-jealousy

Gmaj7I didn't really mean to Ccause such an ugly scene
Gmaj7Sure went off at your house, half drunk and crazy b***h I Ccalled you out
DOr at that party where I Cmade such a mess
DAnd poured my whiskey down the Cback of your dress
[Chorus]
What got Gmaj7in me is something more than envy
