B                                F# 
You call me in the middle of the night 
                E        B 
Saying that you just got home 
B                            F# 
You're lucky I'm even still awake 
                E          B 
Awake enough to answer the phone 
B                      F#              E                 B 
But I knew it would be you'cause I was hoping that you'd call 
B                               F# 
Hoping you'd say that you were sorry 
              E            G#m 
But you don't apologize at all 


G#m          E                 G#m 
And it's not ok and it's not alright

What have you been doing with those guys all night?

If they're really just friends

Please don't do this again 
B                 F# 
I try to give the space you need 
E              F#               G#m 
But you end up walking all over me 
             F#         E

Except for that hour you blacked out 
B                             F# 
Now you're surprised that I'm pissed 
              E          B 
You think I'm acting all tough 
B                                 F# 
Well I think you're acting like a bitch 
                 E             G#m 
And I swear this time I've had enough
