 A                          C#m             Bm 
Spit in my face, tell me I didn't mean what I said 
 A                                 C#m      Bm 
I'll take those words with me when I'm dead 
A                         E                    Bm 
Open your mouth and contradict everything you said last summer 
A                        C#m    Bm       
I don't even know you anymore, anymore

Maybe I'll run away from home, fake my own death and see if you really care 
                E                                           A 
A week goes by, I doubt you'll be waiting around for me at all 
                                                C#m 
No matter how many times I walk up my driveway, you won't be there 
      E                              A  
You're nowhere to be found because everything you said was a lie

E, A, E, A 

A                                 E 
You wanted me when I was running away 
                     A 
I needed you when I ripped your heart out 
                   E 
I can't count the times we fell apart 
             A  
We can't go back, it's not the same 
             E 
We can't go back, it's not the same 
             A 
We can't go back, it's not the same

 A                             C#m              Bm 
When something's fallen apart as many times as us 
 A                              C#m            Bm 
I can't put it back together, it's not the same
