[Intro]
 
A#m G# F#
Funny, you know, you were the whole wide world (I m-m-mean you)
C# G# F#
You fell for the moment so you lied to the girl (Didn't m-m-mean to)
A#m G# F#
I gave you the answer, it was in all the songs (Did you even listen to the playlist?)
C# G#sus4 F#
Then I gave you the option, and you chose wrong (You were an asshole, face it)
 
[Verse 1]
 
A#m G#
Should've been honest
Gm7b5 F#
Should've told the truth
C# A#m G#
It's a shame I told my journal and my mirror

But I never told you
 
[Chorus]
 
F#
I meant, "Don't go"
C# G#
It came out as, "Goodbye"
A#m F#
You said, "Fine", when you should've said, "we could try"
C# G# A#m
So, now we're seeing other people
F# C#
And it's too late to tell you
G# A#m F#
"But, man, you know, Yoko never broke up that band"
C# G#
You misunderstood The Beatles
A#m F#
Guess that's being twenty-two
C# G#
You misunderstood a lot of things
A#m F#
But, yeah, I guess me too
C# G# A#m
 
[Verse 2]
 
A#m G# Fm F#
You knew I was scared when you were driving too fast (Can you please just listen?)
C# G# Fm F#
So many signs that you were driving right past (And, no, I didn't)
G#
Say how I felt when I felt it
A#m C# G#
Thought you knew how I felt, now I doubt it
 
[Chorus]

I meant, "Don't go"

[Bridge]
 
Fm F# G#
We should've talked it out when it happened
C# D#m Fm
I couldn't talk to you
F# G# C#
Got stuff to talk about, then I chickened out
D#m Fm
I couldn't talk to you
 
[Chorus]
 
F#
I meant, "Don't go"
C# G#
It came out as, "Goodbye"
A#m F#
You said, "Fine", when you should've said, "we could try"
C# G# A#m
So, now we're seeing other people
F# C#
And it's too late to tell you
G# A#m F#
"But, man, you know, Yoko never broke up that band"
C# G#
You misunderstood the secret
A#m F#
The universe don't always come through
C# G#
And Paul McCartney is not the villain
A#m F#
Sometimes you can't be the hero and tell the truth
C# A#m G#
And you misunderstood me leaving as something I wanted
F#
I didn't want it at all
C# G#
You should've put me above those people you didn't even know
A#m F# C#
You have a phone, you should've called
G# A#m
You have a phone, you should've called
F# C# G# A#m
 
[Outro]

Fm F#
Guess that's being twenty-two

You misunderstood a lot of things
Fm F#
You misunderstood me too
