verse 1: Lauren 
D 
Our phone calls got shorter 
D 
And the nights they got longer 
Bm 
You stopped replying 
G 
And I saw you with her 

D 
You tell me you miss me 
D 
I feel special for a second 
Bm 
But then you turn around and show me 
G 
that you didn't mean it 

Bridge: Lisa 
D                               G 
I listen to your voicemail from last September 
D              G              D 
I bet that you don't remember leaving it 
G 
But it's all I got 
Bm               G 
My last piece of you 

 All 
Bm              G                   D   A 
Maybe sometimes things just have to end 
Bm              G                          D  A 
Maybe sometimes there's just no explaining it  
     G          Dsus2    Bm     A 
Whoa-oh But you could've let me know  
         G      D    Bm     A      D 
You'd be moving on before Octobers gone 

verse 2: Dani 
D 
I heard all the rumors 
D 
I didn't want to believe it 
Bm 
You barely mentioned her once 
G 
I didn't think anything of it 

All 
D 
Sitting there on my driveway 
D 
Said you could listen to me all night 
Bm 
Now you're the boy who never meant it 
                 G 
And I'm just the girl who "took it all the wrong way" 

Bridge: Christina 
D                      G 
Now I'm lost here It's mid-December 
D                 G            
And you made it official with her 
D                      G 
I was naive, you never wanted me 
Bm                G          Bm 
Tell me why'd you do this to me? 

 All 
Bm              G                   D A 
Maybe sometimes things just have to end 
Bm              G                          D  A 
Maybe sometimes there's just no explaining it  
     G          Dsus2    Bm     A 
Whoa-oh But you could've let me know  
         G      D    Bm     A      D 
You'd be moving on before Octobers gone 

Interlude: Katherine 
D                                    A 
On that October night when I let you go 
A                                    Bm 
You didn't even try to make me stay, no 
Bm                                 G 
I didn't know that you could be so cold 
G                  D 
Like the Minnesota snow 

Interlude: Amy 
D                                      A 
Somehow I always knew we'd end up this way 
A                         Bm 
And I hope you feel happy someday 
Bm                              G  
I just wanted you to open up to me 
G 
But now that's on the list of things you never did 

Bm G D A 

Dani (Slower & Softer) 
Bm              G                   D Asus2 
Maybe sometimes things just have to end 
Bm                           G             D Asus2 
Maybe sometimes there's just no explaining it.    
     G          Dsus2    Bm     A 
Whoa-oh But you could've let me know  
         G      D 
You'd be moving on  
Bm              A 
You'd be moving on  
         G      D    Bm         A          D 
You'd be moving on before.... Octobers.... gone....
