G  Em  C  D

G                   Em  
I can't believe you did it again
C             D 
Walked by and took my heart with you
G                 Em  
Why'd you have to look so good
C                  D
Don't you know I'm trying to hate you
C 		    D
Trying to have a dream without you in it 
C               			     D
But how can I put out this fire, when you're the one that lit it

       G             Em    C       D		   G         Em          C     D
I can't wait for the day I stop pretending that I'm really okay, when I'm not
        Em         	C           G             A
I wanna know how it feels to be over you for real
       C         				     G   Em   C   D
Till I do, I'll keep writing songs about you

G                   Em  
I’ve got a stack of papers so high
C            D
And it's all about you baby
G             Em  
Keep thinking maybe I
C                   D
Could make sense of something crazy
C                 D
Something I can't get out of my head
  C                                          D
I write your name, I write your name, then I tear it all to shreds

       G             Em    C       D		   G         Em          C     D
I can't wait for the day I stop pretending that I'm really okay, when I'm not
        Em         	C           G             A
I wanna know how it feels to be over you for real
       C         				     G   Em   C   D
Till I do, I'll keep writing songs about you

C                                    G
And if you ever change your mind and want me back again
C                                 D
I hope these songs will remind me why I shouldn't let you in

       G             Em    C       D		   G         Em          C     D
I can't wait for the day I stop pretending that I'm really okay, cause I'm not
        Em         	C           G             A
I wanna know how it feels to be over you for real
       C
Till I do…
       G             Em    C       D		   G         Em          C     D
I just wait for the day I stop pretending that I'm really okay, when I'm not
        Em         	C           G             A
I wanna know how it feels to be over you for real
       C         				     G   Em   C   D
Till I do, I'll keep writing songs about you
