Em                   D
I was supposed to be sent away

    C                       D
But they forgot to come and get me

Em                  D
I was a functioning alcoholic

            C                 D
Till nobody noticed my new aesthetic

Em             D                  C
All of this to say I hope you're okay

               D
But you're the reason

Em         D
And no one here's to blame

    G                     Dm
But what about your quiet treason?
[Chorus]
          Em                  D
And for a fortnight there, we were forever

             G               C
Run into you sometimes, ask about the weather

                     Em             D
Now you're in my backyard, turned into good neighbors

                 G                C
Your wife waters flowers, I wanna kill her
[Chorus]
Dm
I look in people's windows

G
Transfixed by rose golden glows

C               Dm              G              C Csus2
They have their friends over to drink nice wine

N.C                   Em
But I'm gonna get you back
[Verse]
                        G
Your hologram stumbled into my apartment

D                                               G                 Em
Hands in the hair of somebody in darkness named Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus

    D
And I just watched it happen

       C
Little did you know

     Em                   D
Your home's really only a town you're just a guest in

       C               Em
So you work your life away

                  D
Just to pay for a timeshare down in Destin
[Chorus]
     D                   C
Florida is one hell of a drug

     D                C
Florida, can I use you up?

                               G
Now I'm down bad crying at the gym

Em                   D
Everything comes out teenage petulance

 C                       G
"Fuck it if I can't have him"

   Em                       D
"I might just die, it would make no difference."

C                      G
Down bad, waking up in blood

Em                       D
Staring at the sky, come back and pick me up

C                       G
Fuck it if I can't have us.

  Em                 D
I might just not get up

             C        G Em D
I might stay down bad
[Verse]
Em       D
Wise men once said

 C              G
"Wild winds are death to the candle"

Em         D     C
A rose by any other name is a scandal

Em
Quick, quick

D                 C
Tell me something awful

               G                       Em        D        C
Like you are a poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy

                 Em
Tell me all your secrets

                D
All you'll ever be is

           G  Em D       C
My eternal consolation prize

       Em
And it hits me

  D    G          C
I just don't understand
[Chorus]
             D
How you don't miss me

       G
In The Black Dog

     C                                       D
When someone plays The Starting Line and you jump up

          G                 C
But she's too young to know this song

                            D            G        C
That was intertwined in the magic fabric of our dreaming

D       G      C         D
Old habits die screaming
[Bridge]
D                   C
I need to forget so take me to Florida

D                           G
I've got some regrets, I'll bury them in Florida

D                      C
I saw in my mind fairy lights through the mist

               D                    G
And that's the closest I've come to my heart exploding

                               D
But statues crumble if they're made to wait

    C           G
I'm so afraid I sealed my fate

    D                            C
You said you were gonna grow up, then you were gonna come find me

D                            G
Said you were gonna grow up, then you were gonna come find me

C                      G     Em
Beauty is a beast that roars

       D
Way to go, Tiger

C                      G    F#m
Only when your girlish glow

           G
Wilder and lighter

D                      G               C         D
When the first stone's thrown, there's screaming

     G
"But Daddy I love him!"

D                     G           C D
In the streets it's a raging riot

            G        D
He sent me 'Downtown Lights'

D                   G               C         D
When it's "Burn the bitch," they're shrieking

                      G
Now, pretty baby, I'm running

D                    G                   C       D
When the truth comes out the story isn't mine anymore

C               G
All her fucking lives

                       D
Cause I'm a real tough kid

C                  G
Flashed before her eyes

                D
I can handle my shit

D                G
He just comes running over-

D          G   D         G
Once I fix me, he's gonna miss me

            Em
"I'll never leave"

           G   D          G
Once I fix me, he's gonna miss me

       C
"Never mind"

       G         D
As the blood was gushing

                             G
You know how to ball, I know Aristotle

                      D
He just hadn't met me yet

N.C                  D                 G
Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?

                     Em                 F
Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?

                   D                               G
Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy?

                     Em                  F
In fifty years, will all this be declassified?

                           D
And you'll confess why you did it

               G
And I'll say, "Good riddance"

                 Em                     F
'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden

                         D
I would've died for your sins

                       G
Instead, I just died inside

                Em                        F
And you deserve prison, but you won't get time

                  D                             G
You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars

               Em                    F
You crashed my party and your rental car

                           D
You said normal girls were boring

                         G
But you were gone by the morning

                   Em
You kicked out the stage lights

                    F
But you're still performing
[Chorus]
F#m* A*  F#m* G*
"You look like Taylor Swift

F#m* A*   F#m*
In   this light

      G*
We're loving it.

F#m*   A*  F#m*     G*
You've got edge she never did

    F#m* A*     F#m*
The fu - ture's bright

    G*
... Dazzling."
