[Intro]
F Dm C Am
F Dm C Am
[Verse 1]
F C
And I tried to pin you down at 3 a.m
F C
By 5, looks like you've won me over again
F C
And I've spent the last year watching you deteriorate
F C
You're a likable bully, all along it's been my mistake
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F
'Cause all these nuanced conversations
C
That cried for quiet consolations
F
Were affectations of affection
C
That stemmed from suggestive rejections
F
And still I loved your lilting anger
C
Dissected every word you sang there
F
Now I know every loaded line
C
I've heard them all too many times
[Chorus 1]
F Dm C Am
But I don't believe you anymore
F Dm C Am
This insincerity is starting to bore me
F Dm
And I can't figure out what's wrong with you
C Am F
When these indiscretions start anew and I'm torn
[Verse 2]
F C
And I thought I'd gotten through to you but then
F C F
Next day looked like you'd one-upped me again
C
And your machinations leave me speechless and resigned
F C
And while I won't deny your talent, I'm gonna quit wasting my time
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F
Note all these ripped-off observations
C
Encasing sly retaliations
F
They're declarations of defection
C
From your beguiling new deceptions
F
But I still love the way you eye me
C
You gauge my temper, satisfy me
F
And you're so quick to realign
C
But I've heard that song too many times
[Chorus 2]
F Dm C Am
But I don't believe you anymore
F Dm C Am
This insincerity is starting to bore me
F Dm
And I can't figure out what's wrong with you
C Am F
When these false confessions start anew and I'm torn
[Coda 1]
F
So why'd you have to change?
C
Or have you always been this way?
F
I miss the way you were before
C
You figured out that I'm not yours
F
And at every show
C
I'm just another face in your front row
F C
But now I know you're so alone
[Coda 2]
F
So why'd you have to change?
C
Do you ever miss me the same way?
F
I miss our long talks on the porch
C
With shifting eyes and sweet retorts
F
And it's been so long
F
I can't remember what went wrong
C F
I miss you but ... I'm giving up
