But whatever Gcurse you put here Cin me
Well can you Glift it babe before I hit thCe road?
[Chorus]
You were a Acharmer, I was a Cheartbreak junGky
You were a Adiamond, I was the Cheap of fool's Ggold
You were the Ajet plane, I was the Cparachute failGing
I was the Acheap ad when Cyou were the centerGfold
[Verse 2]
Then my sun set Ghard on CaroClinaCm  
Where she Ghowled about the Pender county ClineCm  
And her six-string Gfingers ran the length of some boy's CbodyCm  
In younger Gdreams I thought that body might be CmineCm  
[Chorus]
You were a Acold crush, I was a Cheartbreak junGky
Now you're a Amother and I'm a Cflashback Gson

So Ddisenchant me baby, I've been dying to know how to give up, get out, stay gone
Make me not wanna Cgo back to the girl that I had before, she was so sweet baby so sweet
Maybe DI can reconcile what I ripped in two
That haphazard, half-hearted love I was making with Cyou
Yeah, I made it with Cmyou.
[Verse 3]
But now the bars are Gclosed and the city Csleeps tight
As I Gramble home my wretched merry waCy
Where Gdown was up and feeling bad felt Cso right.
I Gthought that vertigo was here to Cstay

We're talking Ahellfire, but at the Ctime, it seemed Gfunny
When all thAe demons left the Cwoodwork to pGlay

[Verse 1]

G C

So you fell in love and it wasn't with me

G C

Hey that's fine, it's about time I let go

G C

But whatever curse you put here in me

G C

Well can you lift it babe before I hit the road?

[Chorus]

A C G

You were a charmer, I was a heartbreak junky

A C G

You were a diamond, I was the heap of fool's gold

A C G

You were the jet plane, I was the parachute failing

A C G

I was the cheap ad when you were the centerfold

[Verse 2]

G C Cm

Then my sun set hard on Carolina

G C Cm

Where she howled about the Pender county line

G C Cm

And her six-string fingers ran the length of some boy's body

G C Cm

In younger dreams I thought that body might be mine

[Chorus]

A C G

You were a cold crush, I was a heartbreak junky

A C G

Now you're a mother and I'm a flashback son

A C G

Yeah I'm a wasteland, you've got all your milk and honey

A C G

And back then I swore you were the only one

[Bridge]

So disenchant me baby, I've been dying to know how to give up, get out, stay gone

Make me not wanna go back to the girl that I had before, she was so sweet baby so sweet

Maybe I can reconcile what I ripped in two

That haphazard, half-hearted love I was making with you

Yeah, I made it with you.

[Verse 3]

G C

But now the bars are closed and the city sleeps tight

G C

As I ramble home my wretched merry way

G C

Where down was up and feeling bad felt so right.

G C

I thought that vertigo was here to stay

[Chorus]

A C G

We're talking hellfire, but at the time, it seemed funny

A C G

When all the demons left the woodwork to play

A C G

With an angel and a heartbreak junky

A C G

Stuck in their rock bottom masquerade

[Bridge]

So disconnect me baby, I've been dying to know how to give up, get out, stay gone

Make me not wanna go back to the girl that I had before, she was so sweet baby, so sweet

Maybe I can reconcile what I ripped in two

That haphazard, half-hearted love I was making with you

Yeah, I made it with you.

[Outro]

C G F

So when Eden burns behind you in the rearview

C G F

and you're off to find a stranger paradise

Where you can sing your own way out

G D C

Well, you know that I'll be around

D C Cm

with a sweet-talk woman fading slowly

Cm G

on a lovesick mind
