[Verse 1]
EThis is weird, don't you think?
How I usAed to have a wife
Now I've C#monly got a roommate?
EWeird, don't you think?
How we Aused to hang so tightly
C#mNow we just can't come toEgether on anything?
AHow I never thought I'd run from C#myou
But I've been Aliving in the other C#mroom?
[Verse 2]
EThis is weird, don't you think?
AHow you used to have a husband
C#mNow there's just a fucking Eghost in the halls?
And he's Atrapped inside the house, yeah
He's C#mtethered to the memories of Elove between these walls
And I Athink he's gonna linger
At C#mleast until the summer or the fEall
And I think that he'll Aprobably never really be C#mfree agaiAn
Yeah, I'll probably never really be C#mfree agaiAn
[Verse 3]
ENow there's an angel or a demon G#min my room
And I Dconfess that I can't C#mtell the difference
AShe looks a lEot like you
DSounds a little bit Alike you too
And she Ewhispers, "It's gonna be okay"
I don't Dknow if that's the C#mtruth
Or just some Acruel, strangely-C#melaborate prank
But Aeither way, I Adon't believe her
'Cause Ehope turns to poison in my ears
As I'm Dsitting here, alone at the end of my roApe
And it's deeply Efrustrating, yeah
DTalk is cheap, no, Amaybe I should call up an eEx
And see if she wants to Breconnect
No, there's Dprobably plenty of other C#meligible bachelorettesA  
Right Earound here that DI can ruin relationships Awith tonight
[Bridge]
EBut time is on our siAde
ETime is on our siAde
C#mTime is on our siAde, I gEuess
[Outro]
                            BN.C.
If you can keep it together, keep it together, you're fine
EIf you can keep it together, just keep it together, you're fAine
Because one C#mway or another, for better or worse
AThis too is gonna pEass
AThis too is gonna pC#mass
AThis too is gonna pEass
EAnd if you can keep it together, keep it together, you're fiAneC#m  
If you can Ekeep it together, just keep it together, you're Afine
C#mBecause one way or another, for better or worse
AThis too is gonna paEss
AThis too is gonna pC#mass
AThis too is gonna paEss
It's gEonna passA  
It's gEonna passA  
It's gEonna pass, AI guessE
