[Intro]
E F# G#m
E F# G#m
[Verse]
E F#
I would have walked through fire
G#m
To kiss your lips
E
Do you still think about it
F# G#m
Of what you did?
E
Still see your old apartment
F# G#m
Like a bad trip
E F# G#m
Wish I could forget all the places we've been
[Pre-Chorus]
E F# G#m
Hot and heavy whiskey goodbyes
E F# G#m
Boy you know how to make a girl cry
E F# G#m
Was sleeping in a bed full of lies
E F# G#m
And now that I'm older, I can see why
[Chorus]
E
Made me feel high
G#m
'Cause you had me so low, low, low
B
You only seemed tall
E
'Cause you stunted my grow, grow, growth
E G#m
I only wanted you 'cause I couldn't have you
B
Now that I know
E
That wasn't love, that wasn't love
E
That was just hope
[Post-Chorus]
F# G#m
E F# G#m
E F# G#m
Hope
E F# G#m
That wasn't love, that wasn't love
E
That was just hope
[Verse]
F# G#m
Always another bender, I'd lose control
E F#
I thought I get it back when
G#m E
You came back home to me darling
F#
But I never had it, did I?
G#m
You're heart´s a trick
E F# G#m
And all the magic we felt, was just a hit
[Pre-Chorus]
E F# G#m
Hot and heavy whiskey goodbyes
E F# G#m
Boy you know how to make a girl cry
E F# G#m
Was sleeping in a bed full of lies
E F# G#m
And now that I'm older, I can see why
[Chorus]
E
Made me feel high
G#m
'Cause you had me so low, low, low
B
You only seemed tall
E
'Cause you stunted my grow, grow, growth
E G#m
I only wanted you 'cause I couldn't have you
B
Now that I know
E
That wasn't love, that wasn't love
E
That was just hope
[Post-Chorus]
F# G#m
E F# G#m
E F# G#m
E F# G#m
That wasn't love, that wasn't love
E
That was just hope
F# G#m
'Cause you had me so low, low, low
E
You only seemed tall
F# G#m
'Cause you stunted my grow, grow, growth
E F# G#m
I only wanted you 'cause I couldn't have you
E
Now that I know
F# G#m
That wasn't love, that wasn't love
