(No way, no way, no way, no way)
 
[Verso 1]
D
Maybe his phone died on a long drive
D
Middle of nowhere
G
Stuck on the side of the road, no service
D Bm
No way he'd leave me on "Read" for two weeks on purpose
A D
Maybe he's busy picking flowers
D
'Cause he knows my birthday's next month, how sweet
G
Or he's taking a shower
Bm A
Drafting handwritten letters for hours on hours
 
[Pré-Refrão]
Em D G
Surely his silence isn't him letting me go
Em
And I know he can't read his watch
D/F# G
I bet that's why he didn't show, I know
 
[Refrão]
D
He's a lotta bit pretty and a little dumb
G
He probably couldn't spell "valedictorian"
Bm A
And I'll admit there's brighter stars in the sky
G A
He speaks before he thinks, like, most of the time
D
But there's got to be a reason why he isn't here
G
With a girl like me, you don't just disappear
Bm A
Up and ghost me, he wouldn't do it
G D
No way, no way a boy's that stupid
 
[Verso 2]
D
What's there to not love? I'm the whole package
D
I'm funny and kind and I sing
G
Plus, I'm humble and most days attractive
Bm A
So, no text back must mean something terrible has happened
 
[Pré-Refrão]
Em D G
Surely his silence isn't him letting me go
Em D G
So I check the local paper, making sure his name ain't written in bold, I know
