IL la sic fa col barrè sul quinto tasto e il si sul settimo.
[Verse]
C#m G
Now I don't want to hate you
A B
Just wish you'd never gone for the man
C#m G
And waited two weeks at least
A B
Before you let him take you
C#m G
I stayed true
A B
I kind of knew you liked the dude from private school
C#m G
He's waiting for the time to move
A B
I knew he had his eyes on you
C#m G
He's not the right guy for you
A B
Don't hate me cos I write the truth
C#m G
No I would never lie to you
A B
But it was never fine to lose you
C#m G
And what a way to find out
A B
It never came from my mouth
You never changed your mind
C#m G
But you were just afraid to find out
A B
But f- it, I won't be changing the subject I love it
C#m G
I'll make your little secret public its nothing
A B
I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with
C#m G
In your closet to get back at me
Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
A B
Fact is you're mad at me because I backtrack so casually
C#m G
You're practically my family
A B
If we married then I'll guess you'd have to be
C#m G
But tragically our love just lost the will to live
A B
But would I kill to give it one more shot
C#m G
I think not
[Chorus]
C#m G
I don't love you baby
A B
I don't need you baby
C#m G
I don't want you no
A B
Any-more
C#m G
I don't love you baby
A B
I don't need you baby
C#m G
I don't want you no
A B
Any-more
[Verse]
C#m G
Recently I tend to zone out
A B
Up in my headphones to Holocene
C#m G
You promised your body but I'm away so much
A B
I stay more celibate than in a monastery
C#m G
Im not cut out for life on the road
A B
Cos I didn't know I'd miss you this much
C#m G
And at the time we'd just go, so sue me
A B
I guess I'm not the man that you need
C#m G
Ever since you went to uni
A B
I've been sofa surfing with a rucksack
C#m G
Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad
A B
But when I broke the industry that's when I broke your heart
C#m G
I was supposed to chart and celebrate
A B
But good things are over fast
C#m G
I know it was hard to deal with and see this
A B
I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features
C#m G
Then I turn the music off
A B
And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus
C#m G
I never really want to believe this
A B
Got advice from my dad and he
C#m G
Told me that family is all I'll ever have and need
A B
I guess I'm unaware of it
C#m G
Success is nothing if you have no one left to share it with
[Chorus]
C#m G
I don't love you baby
A B
I don't need you baby
C#m G
I don't want you no
A B
Any-more
C#m G
I don't love you baby
A B
I don't need you baby
C#m G
I don't want you no
A B
Any-more
[Verse]
C#m G
And since you left I've given up my days off
A B
It's what I need to stay strong
C#m G
I know you have a day job But mine is 24/7
A B
I fell like writing a book I guess I lied in the hook
C#m G
Cos I still love you and I need you by my side if I could
A B
The irony is if my career and music didn't exist
C#m G
In six years yeah you'd probably be my wife with a kid
A B
I'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink
C#m G
And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it's
A B
Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to kill
F
And I'd be writing my will before I'm 27
C#m G
I'll die from a thrill Go down in history as just a wasted talent
A B
Can I face the challenge Or did I make a mistake erasing
C#m G
It's only therapy My thoughts just get ahead of me
A B
Eventually I'll be fine I know that it was never meant to be
C#m G
Either way I guess I'm not prepared
A B
But I'll say this:
C#m G
These things happen for a reason and you can't change
A B
Take my apology I'm sorry for the honesty
C#m G
But I had to get this off my chest
[Chorus]
C#m G
I don't love you baby
A B
I don't need you baby
C#m G
I don't want you no
A B
Any-more
C#m G
I don't love you baby
A B
I don't need you baby
C#m G
I don't want you no
A B
Any-more
