C                        (mute) 
I'm sobre enough to know better, 
        G     F 
but I'm drunk enough to not care 
C                                    G 
I'm moved on enough to not give a what 
    F 
but hung up enough to wonder where 
C 
you are tonight 
                  G 
is it a bar tonight 
F 
yeah it's a fight between my head and heart tonight 

Pre-Chorus 
(mute) 
I'm wishing you would stay yeah I'm wishing you'd come over 
G                             F 
baby you're the angel and the devil tuggin on my shoulder 

Chorus 
C 
You could call me up and say you're all alone 
G                        F 
I'm half hoping you will half hoping you won't 
C 
You could walk in the door with my old shirt on 
G                    F 
half hoping you will half hoping 
C 
you'll kiss me like you used to kiss me 
G                          F 
wreck my head and bed then leave 
C                       G 
I'm damned if you do I'm damned if you don't 
                             F                     C   G  F

Somewhere between good riddance 
G                                     F 
and throwing rocks at your windows pain 
C                                             G                               F 
wishing things could be a little different but wishing they could stay the same 
(mute) 
It'd save me some hurt if my phone would die 
            G                                   F 
but it'd be a damn good time if it would ring tonight

you'll kiss me like you used to kiss me 
G                          F 
wreck my head and bed then leave 
C                       G 
I'm damned if you do I'm damned if you don't 
                             F                      C   G  F
