  "Hey there love, let's get to catching up
              Fm
'Cause I been thinking those thoughts
     Bb        Cm
that must have slipped my mind
Eb                 G#                  Fm
  that time that I left you there that night." 
Bb     Cm              Eb              Bb/D
  I replied, "Let me remind you of the guy 
              Cm           Bb
you failed to mention all along.
                    Fm            Eb/G             G#    Bb  
'Cause your actions have consequences and these are them." 


Chorus 1:
Cm                     Bb                    Fm 
I'll be your friend in hell, until then I despise you. 
                      Cm
And I probably always will. 
          Bb                      Fm
I can't afford to make another mistake like this
                               G#
'Cause this is more than I can take.
       Bb           Fm               Cm Bb/D Eb
I don't mean to leave angry, this is by your own devise.
G#              Bb(hold) 
  I'm sure this comes as no surprise. 


Verse 2:
Eb                              G#
  Hey there babe, don't mean to cut you off
         Fm                           Bb    Cm
but I've heard enough lies and you're dying to get caught.
Eb             G#               Fm     Bb
  I'll let you go call all your friends. 
       Cm             Eb                Bb/D
"Oh my god! Let me describe to you this guy, 
            Cm                Bb
his name is Ken, he's in this band that writes such,
Fm             Eb/G            G# 
  awful songs about me all the time."
               Bb
You're goddamn right! 


(Repeat Chorus 1) 


Bridge:
Eb                  Cm
  Fine, just let me lie here for a while, 
                Fm                             G#
'Cause I'll be staying up, yeah hanging up all night. 
      Eb              Cm
Oh I'm spent of all attention that I've given 
     Bb                                       G#
To a hopeless case, to a sharp headache, to a choice you make 
To the reason why I, to the reason why I say. 


Chorus 2:
Cm                     Bb                   Fm
I'll be your friend in hell, until then I despise you.
                      Cm
And I probably always will. 
          Bb                      Fm
I can't afford to make another mistake like you.
Cm              Bb             G# 
  I'm sure this comes as no surprise. (x2)
