[Intro]
Gm F
[Verse 1]
Gm
When you first left me
F
I was wanting more
Gm
But you were fucking that girl next door
F
What'd you do that for? (what'd you do that for?)
Gm
When you first left me
F
I didn't know what to say
Gm
I'd never been on my own that way
F
Just sat by myself all day
[Pre-chorus 1]
Gm
I was so lost back then
F
But with a little help from my friends
Gm F
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
Gm
Now you're calling me up on the phone
F
So you can have a little whine and a moan
Gm F
And it's only because you're feeling alone
[Chorus 1]
Gm F
At first when I see you cry
Gm
It makes me smile
F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm F
At worst I feel bad for awhile
Gm
But then I just smile
F
I go ahead and smile
[Verse 2]
Gm
Whenever you see me
F
You say that you want me back
Gm
And I tell you it don't mean jack
F
No, it don't mean jack
Gm
I couldn't stop laughing
F
No, I just couldn't help myself
Gm
See, you messed up my mental health
F
I was quite unwell
[Pre-chorus 2]
Gm
I was so lost back then
F
But with a little help from my friends
Gm F
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
Gm
Now you're calling me up on the phone
F
So you can have a little whine and a moan
Gm F
It's only because you're feeling alone
[Chorus 2]
Gm F
At first when I see you cry
Gm
Yeah, it makes me smile
F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm F
At worst I feel bad for awhile
Gm
But then I just smile
F
I go ahead and smile
[Instrumental]
Gm
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
F
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
Gm
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
F
La-la-laaaaa
[Chorus 3]
Gm F
At first when I see you cry
Gm
Yeah, it makes me smile
F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm F
At worst I feel bad for awhile
Gm
But then I just smile
F
I go ahead and smile
[Outro]
Gm F
At first when I see you cry
Gm
Yeah, it makes me smile
F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm F
At worst I feel bad for awhile
Gm
But then I just smile
F
I go ahead and smile
