[Intro]
         A E F#m D A E F#m D
(2, 3, 4)
[Verse 1]
A                 E              F#m  D
  Like a Saturday night I'll be gone

A                 E             D               Faug            A
  Like a Saturday night I'll be gone before you knew that I was there
[Interlude] D E D [Verse 2]
E                             D              
  So you wrote it down I'm supposed to care

                 E
Even though it's never there

             D
Sorry if I'm not prepared   

E                                  D
  Is it hard to see the things you substitute

                  E
For me and all my thoughts of you

                D
It's eating me alive to leave you
[Pre-Chorus]
A          E                      F#m
Maybe it's childish and maybe it's wrong 

               D                           A
But so is your blank stare in lieu of this song

           E                       Bm D
Maybe it's childish and maybe it's wrong
[Chorus]
A                  E                 F#m D
  Don't want to be, don't want to be wrong

A                   E               D                  
  You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song

A                  E                F#m D
  Don't want to be, don't want to be wrong

A                  E                D
  You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this, in lieu of this song
[Interlude] A D E D [Verse 2]
E                       D
  I'm breathing in your skin tonight

            E
Quiet is my loudest cry

                 D                                 
Wouldn't want to wake the eyes that make me melt inside

D                          D
  And if it's healthier to leave you be

                        E
May a sickness come and set me free

                D
Kill me while I still believe that you were meant for me
[Interlude]
A D A E A D E A D A
Ah, ah, ah,   ah
[Bridge]
A                E                        F#m
  I'm writing my own words, my own little stage

            D                      A
My own epic drama, my own scripted page

                  E                              F#m
I'll send you the rough draft, I'll seal it with tears

             D                   N.C.
Maybe you'll read it and I'll reappear

A                       E                        F#m
  From the start it was shaky and the characters rash

                   D                             A
A nice setting for heartache where emotions come last

                   E                       F#m
Oh, I haven't even sought to overcome this desire

              D                                  Dm
Of friendly intentions and fair-weathered smiles
[Chorus]
      A                 E                F#m D
And I don't want to be, don't want to be wrong

A                  E                D                  
  You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this song

A                  E                 F#m D
  Don't want to be, don't want to be wrong

A                E                  D
  You're leaving me, you're leaving me in lieu of this, in lieu of this song
[Outro]
A               E             F#m  D
  Like Saturday night I'll be gone

A               E             F#m  D
  Like Saturday night I'll be gone

A               E             F#m  D
  Like Saturday night I'll be gone

A               E             D               Ddim            A   D A
  Like Saturday night I'll be gone before you knew that I was there
