   G
I shoved you 'cause I loved you, man

        Em
Didn't mean to lean too hard to stand

          C                        D            G
Wish you would've said you were already on the ledge

     G
You slurred your words and went AWOL

          Em
I've seen more grace scrawled on bathroom walls

          C               D               G
Then you went silent and left it all for dead

          Em    D/F#    G     D     G
I reached out,  but     I'm   the   fool

            Em       D/F#   G         B7
'Cause you couldn't spare   one  syllable

            G
Now you're nothing to me, just a lyric a memory

                            Em      D      G
The reason why I wake up so aaaaaaaaaaaaaangry

    G
And honestly, a "fuck you" would be a coutesy

                                Em    D     G
But you walked away so goddamn eeeeeeeeeeasily

              Em     C          G       D
Though you'll never reach your destination,

Cadd9    G               D      G
Run    away like you've always done

G
You, you're a mispelled tattoo

Maybe permanently skewed

              C              D               G
'Cause you're too afraid of pain to correct it

G
One day you will wake up to

   Em
A monument built just for you

     C               D
From bits of relationships you didn't care to fix

            G
Now you're nothing to me, just a lyric a memory

I hope you're listening to this

D/F#
Surrounded by friends

Em
Who know now that this is how

C
Things could end for them

    G
If sixteen years was just enough

     D/F#
Then sixteen years taight me so much

      Em
Like yeah, we all get older

C        C7            G
But not all of us grow up

G       G      G/B    Cadd9
        Whoa   oh     oooooh

                   G
Not all of us grow up

G       G      G/B    Cadd9
        Whoa   oh     oooooh

    G
Is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick, but I'm throwing it back
           Cadd9
I tried to make things right, let the ink flow
What I got notebooks full of, you don't even wanna know
G
My Bic spits as it wishes you well
And I rehearse every curse I know how to spell
        Cadd9
But the best revenge might be
To never treat anyone the way you treated me
            G
Now you're nothing to me, just a lyric a memory
