verse 1 
D                          Bm 
The thing about a break up 
          G                     D 
Sometimes you just gotta break down 
              Bm 
Coming off a great love 
                  G             D 
There's plenty of pain to pass around 
                         Bm 
Like a tip jar in a dive bar

Full of broken hearts

It's a lonely crowd 
                  Bm      G

When the only thing you want is

Knowing you can't take it back 
              D          Bm 
She's on the good side, goodbye 
        G               D 
On the right sight of free

And you're on the wrong end of a long night

You never know that it's the last

Till they call the last call 
                 G                 D 
And you're just drinking about the past 
                        Bm 
Like the bottom of the bottle 
       G              D 
Knows how to get her back 
                   Bm        G

You never know that it's the last
