Intro
G | G | G | G |
 
[Verso 1]
G
The bar is on the floor
Am7
Don’t have to buy me flowers or hold the door
C
It’s enough that you just listen when I talk
G
Cause no man’s ever done that before
 
[Verso 2]
G
The bar is in hell
Am7
All I ask is that you treat me slightly well
C
Consistency makes me hear wedding bells
G
And even when we fight, you never seem to yell
 
G
And I know I should expect much more of them
Am7
But can’t keep being disappointed when my terms aren’t met
C G
So I lower my expectations and get by on mild infatuation
G
And if they excel, the bare minimum tastes a lot more sweet
Am7
In my innocence, I believed what I saw in movie scenes
C G
It’s a strange world we’re living in, when courtesy can sweep you off your feet
 
Instrumental
G | G | Am7 | Am7 |
C | C | G | G |
 
[Verso 3]
G
But I think I’ve had enough
Am7
Cause I’m deserving of more than a little love
C
And now, I realise I’m not in any rush
G
So I’ve stopped holding onto every single crush
 
[Verso 4]
G
And when the time is right
Am7
The bulb will flicker and come alight
C
But I’m not gonna sit around and waste my life
G
On people who are undeserving of my time
 
G
Because now, I expect much more of them
Am7
And I’m never disappointed if my terms aren’t met
C G
I won’t lower my expectations cause I’m tired of mild infatuation
G
And I will excel with or without you cause I’m meant to succeed
Am7
I let you go cause if it’s meant to be then it’s gonna be
C G
It’s a great world I’m living in, now I’m the one who gives me what I need
 
G
Took a while but I think I finally got there
Am7 C
Done with trying to please the people when they don’t even care
G
No, they don’t even care
G
Cause when it’s right, it’s right and when it’s wrong, it’s wrong
Am7 C
If you don’t treat me nice then you can move along
G
Yeah, you can move on
