[Intro] Gm Dm Eb Bb [Verse]
Gm      Dm       Eb                  Bb
I wanna go back, forget that it's over

Gm         Dm     Eb                   Bb
Painted in black, when you left me alone

Gm      Dm            Eb
I never knew, she was sleeping next door

                   Bb         Gm         Dm            Eb
With the kid I grew up with, and I can't go back to her

Bb        F
Anymore, no more
[Chorus]
Gm             Eb            Bb                            F
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

Gm                  Eb                Bb                    F
And you tell me that you needed time but you, you pushed me away

Gm               Eb               Bb                    F
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks

                             Gm Eb Bb F
No, I can't lift the weight
[Verse]
Gm        Dm         Eb                  Bb
Put you in the past, try to forget you cause it's over

Gm        Dm            Eb                 Bb
And every time you ask, I'll pretend I'm okay

Gm            Dm
You're inside my head,

Eb
In the middle of the night when I don't feel right

Bb                       Gm          Dm            Eb         Bb      F
I dream I can hold you, and I can't go back to you anymore, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Gm             Eb            Bb                            F
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

Gm                  Eb                Bb               F
And you tell me that you needed time but you pushed me away

Gm               Eb               Bb                    F
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks

                     Gm    Eb      Bb                F
But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight
[Verse]
Gm                              F
And I can't lift the weight, no I can't life the weight

Bb                                  Eb
Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

Gm                              F
And I can't lift the weight, no I can't life the weight

Bb                                   Eb
Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

Gm                              F
And I can't lift the weight, no I can't life the weight

     Bb                             Eb
Yeah, you lower your standards and I raise the stakes

      Gm                         F                   Bb      Eb
And I can't lift the weight, no I can't life the weight
[Chorus]
Gm             Eb            Bb                           F
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

Gm                  Eb                Bb                      F
And you told me that you needed time but you, you pushed me away

Gm               Eb               Bb                    F
But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks

                     Gm    Eb      Bb                F
But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight
[Chorus]
Gm             Eb            Bb                       F
You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

Gm                  Eb                Bb                      F
And you tell me that you needed time but you, you pushed me away

Gm               Eb               Bb                    F                        Gm      Eb    Bb    F   Gm
But then you try to take me back, say someday you will change, but I don't wanna wait
