[Intro]
C G F
Oh-oh-oh
C G F
Oh-oh-oh
 
[Verse 1]
C G F
Normally I would just forget that
C G F
The way I never seem to cross your mind
C G F
I'd make up excuses for you and I'd lay back
C G F
But honey, tonight was the last time
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F
My head is clear
G Am Em
My heart is broken, yeah I'm still here
F G
Maybe it's time to make a change
N.C.
So baby I'm on my way
 
[Chorus]
C G F
If I can't be your everything
C
Then I ain't gonna settle for second string
G F
Waiting on a day you come running back
C G F
If I can't be the one you miss at night
C
And I ain't gonna settle for daylight
G F
Waiting 'til you realize what you had
C
My love ain't meant for that
 
[Post-Chorus]
G F
Oh-oh-oh
C
My love ain't meant for that
G F
Oh-oh-oh
 
[Verse 2]
C G F
Normally I would try to fight back
C G F
Remind you I'm capable of being loved
C G F
I'm not sure you ever knew that
C G F
'Cause I don't deserve that much
 
[Pre-Chorus]
