[Verse 1]
Am
I tried to be someone
Dm
I lied to be someone else for you
Am
If I had done something a little bit differently
Dm
We would've moved in a better direction than this, baby
[Interlude] (x2)
Am F
[Verse 2]
Am
If you were human
If you were who I assumed you were
Dm
You wouldn't have done this
Am
I thought I did something
Dm
But she would do anything to bring me down
And she brought me down
[Interlude] (x4)
Am F
[Bridge Interlude] (x2)
Am G Dm C
[Chorus]
Am
You say that you love me
But you act like you don't
G
You used to adore me
Laughed at all of my jokes
Dm
Don't take this the wrong way
C
You put me in harm's way
Am
When we had our first kiss it was your favorite thing
G
And you weren't lying when you said it would sting
Dm
Don't take this the wrong way
C
You put me in harm's way
[Chorus 2]
Am
Imagine our children
How fucked would they be?
G
Mommy's a psycho
Daddy lives in a dream
Dm
Don't take this the wrong way
C
[Chorus 3]
Am
I told you I'm sorry
Couldn't thank you enough
G
I thought that I loved you but
We weren't in love
Dm
We weren't in love
C
You were my dream
The way we would fuck
(each chord gets one strum now)
Am
You liked to think
We would push through the bad
G
Ignoring the problems just to hold what we had
Dm
Don't take this the wrong way
C
Don't take this the wrong way
[Outro]
Am G Dm C
Am
