G Dsus4
I pictured our apartment, in the middle of Brooklyn,
Em G7 C
and I pictured the bedroom and how the floor's still a mess.
G Dsus4
I pictured your office in mid-town Manhattan.
Em G7 C
I pictured you walking in. I bet you're late again
D C
but your make-up's straight and you're smiling.
Em D C
It's just like it's always been.
G D Em Bm C D Em D
G Dsus4
I had lunch with your sister and she told me it's over,
Em G7 C
that you're calling your lawyers, that you're not coming back.
G Dsus4
She says that she's sorry. Your whole family likes me.
Em G7 C
She don't know what you're thinking but she knows that it's bad.
D C
So, I'll walk back home, turn the shower on.
Em D C
I'll let the washing machine turn the water cold.
Chorus: G D Em Bm
I'll read it over again, the lines of the note you left.
C D Em D
I keep hoping that I'll forget, that the words changed while I slept
G D Em Bm
but I've got my doubts. You stayed at your parents house
C
and I'm sleeping on the couch.
Eb(once) G
I can't stand our bed without you.
Dsus4
without you,
Em G7 C
oh without you,
G Dsus4
I found enough of your hairpins to build you a monument,
Em G7 C
a statue to loneliness. Breathe it in. Let it go.
G Dsus4
I caved a piece of the drywall in, replaying the argument.
Em G7 C
I'm icing my swollen fist. It's a lie and this isn't a home, no, no, no no no.
D C
I'm just skin and bones. I broke my cell phone
Em D C
cause you won't fucking tell me when you're coming home.
[Refrão]
G D Em Bm
I'll read it over again, the lines of the note you left.

C
and I'm sleeping on the couch.

I can't stand our bed without you.
