Verse 1:
Em
When we first met, we'd talk for hours
Dmaj7
You wore that dress, the one with flowers
Em7                             A7        Dmaj7
When you walked in, I saw the rest of my life

Verse 2:
Em                   Dmaj7
 Were we pretending, all those nights?
Dmaj7                             Em
Dancing to silence in the moonlight
G                          A
Was it a beautiful waste of time?

Chorus:
                    Bm        Em7
You only call me to say you miss me

When I'm far away from home
                     Bm          Em
You only call me to say you want me
          A                  Bm
You only love me when you're lonely, oh

Verse 3:
Em7
We keep spinning back around
Dmaj7
And we always end up here
                Em7        G
When you mix jealousy with sympathy, oh
          A               F#
Whoa, it always ends in tears

Chorus:
                    Bm        Em7

When you think I'm not alone
                          Bm   Em
You only tell me what I wanna hear
          A                  Dmaj7
When you think that I'm not listening
                Bm
Doesn't matter anyway

You only love me when you're lonely, oh
