[Intro]
C G C F Am G C
[Verse 1]
I stoCod in the place where you fucGked me and thoCught about how I'd never seFe you again
I still sleCep in the room where you duGmped me, voicFes still in the walls and I'll bCring home new friGends
Gotta shCake off these nasty addicGtions, tCo gratification and Fself-flagellation
It's tAmoo late in the evening and it's toGo late in general
I miFss having meaning and a diCstraction from mGyself
WaCnt to be struck by nGew love's lightning all fucCked up dripping wFet and frightening
Or just have somAmething that Gleaves me smiling to myself as I wFalk back hComeG  
[Chorus]
But I'd become Amless like a lover and morGe like a landlordC  
And I was leAmss like a lover and mGore like a carer that CI could not afford
And you were leAmss like your old self and moGre like your mother
I was hopFeful but hopeless now I'm jusCt one of the othGers
You are lesAms like a lover and moGre like a landlordC  
[Verse 2]
SaCid I'll be your emergGency contact if yoCu kiss me wheFn you get back
I calAmled you, I had to, went straGight to your message bankC  
Wanted to maCke up for a lost time, makGe up for a lost cause
WoulCd've stood taFll, but for onAmce in my life I wasGn't the one who pushed for the faCll
So oCne of these days I'm goGnna drop dead and you'll oCnly remember the nFice things I said
So put your roseAm-coloured glasses on, pretend you're fiGne until I'm gone
And yFou can do whatevCer the fucGk you want
[Chorus]
And I'd become lAmess like a lover and moGre like a landlordC  
And you'd become leAmss like a lover and moGre like a carer that I Ccould not afford
And you were leAmss of your old self and morGe like your mother
I was hopeFful but hopeless now I'm just Cone of the otheGrs
I was lAmess like a lover and morGe like a landlordC  
[Verse 3]
I still sleCep in the room where you dumpGed meG  
Write sonCgs about how I'm never speakiGng to you againG  
Shouldn't make any difference, surroundings don't influence
The person that I think I am [x4]
[Chorus]
And I'd become lesAms like a lover and moGre like a landlordC  
And you'd become leAmss like a lover and moGre like a carer that I Ccould not afford
And you were leAmss of your old self and morGe like your mother
I was hopeFful but hopeless now I'm juCst one of the otheGrs
You were leAmss like a lover and morGe like a landlordC

[Intro]

C G C F Am G C

[Verse 1]

C G C F

I stood in the place where you fucked me and thought about how I'd never see you again

C G F C G

I still sleep in the room where you dumped me, voices still in the walls and I'll bring home new friends

C G C F

Gotta shake off these nasty addictions, to gratification and self-flagellation

Am G

It's too late in the evening and it's too late in general

F C G

I miss having meaning and a distraction from myself

C G C F

Want to be struck by new love's lightning all fucked up dripping wet and frightening

Am G F C G

Or just have something that leaves me smiling to myself as I walk back home

[Chorus]

Am G C

But I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord

Am G C

And I was less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford

Am G

And you were less like your old self and more like your mother

F C G

I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

Am G C

You are less like a lover and more like a landlord

[Verse 2]

C G C F

Said I'll be your emergency contact if you kiss me when you get back

Am G C

I called you, I had to, went straight to your message bank

C G

Wanted to make up for a lost time, make up for a lost cause

C F Am G C

Would've stood tall, but for once in my life I wasn't the one who pushed for the fall

C G C F

So one of these days I'm gonna drop dead and you'll only remember the nice things I said

Am G

So put your rose-coloured glasses on, pretend you're fine until I'm gone

F C G

And you can do whatever the fuck you want

[Chorus]

Am G C

And I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord

Am G C

And you'd become less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford

Am G

And you were less of your old self and more like your mother

F C G

I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

Am G C

I was less like a lover and more like a landlord

[Verse 3]

C G G

I still sleep in the room where you dumped me

C G G

Write songs about how I'm never speaking to you again

Shouldn't make any difference, surroundings don't influence

The person that I think I am [x4]

[Chorus]

Am G C

And I'd become less like a lover and more like a landlord

Am G C

And you'd become less like a lover and more like a carer that I could not afford

Am G

And you were less of your old self and more like your mother

F C G

I was hopeful but hopeless now I'm just one of the others

Am G C

You were less like a lover and more like a landlord
