Em7* Am* G6* F*




Em7*        Am
Now I don't want to hate you
                   G6*
Just wish you'd never gone for the man
  F
And waited two weeks at least
      Em7*
Before you let him take you
 Am
I stayed true
                 G6*
I kind of knew you liked the dude from private school
   F
He's waiting for the time to move
       Em7*
I knew he had his eyes on you
   Am
He's not the right guy for you
         G6*
Don't hate me cos I write the truth
  F
No I would never lie to you
         Em7*
But it was never fine to lose you
  Am
And what a way to find out
  G6*        F
It never came from my mouth
You never changed your mind
          Em7*       Am
But you were just afraid to find out
                     G6*
But f- it, I won't be changing the subject I love it
F                    Em7*
I'll make your little secret public its nothing
     Am
I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with
G6*          F
In your closet to get back at me
Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
Em7*      Am              G6*
Fact is you're mad at me because I backtrack so casually
F
You're practically my family
            Em7*        Am
If we married then I'll guess you'd have to be
                      G6*
But tragically our love just lost the will to live
F
But would I kill to give it one more shot
      Em7*
I think not



    Am
I don't love you baby
G6*   F
I don't need you baby
Em7*  Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more


Em7*   Am
I don't love you baby
G6*   F
I don't need you baby
Em7*  Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more





          Am
Recently I tend to zone out

Up in my headphones to Holocene
G6*        F
You promised your body but I'm away so much
      Em7*        Am
I stay more celibate than in a monastery
                G6*
Im not cut out for life on the road
       F
Cos I didn't know I'd miss you this much
      Em7*         Am
And at the time we'd just go, so sue me
               G6*
I guess I'm not the man that you need
   F
Ever since you went to uni
            Em7*    Am
I've been sofa surfing with a rucksack
                       G6*
Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad
      F                        Em7*
But when I broke the industry that's when I broke your heart


        Am
I was supposed to chart and celebrate
          G6*
But good things are over fast
    F
I know it was hard to deal with and see this
    Em7*        Am*
I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features
   G6*       F*
Then I turn the music off
                    Em7*      Am
And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus
            G6*
I never really want to believe this
  F
Got advice from my dad and he
          Em7*       Am
Told me that family is all I'll ever have and need
            G6*
I guess I'm unaware of it
  F                     Em7*
Success is nothing if you have no one left to share it with





    Am
I don't love you baby
G6*   F
I don't need you baby
Em7*  Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more


Em7*   Am
I don't love you baby
G6*   F
I don't need you baby
Em7*  Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more



*continue pattern* (I'll get chords placed soon!)
 Em7* Am G6* F....

And since you left
I've given up my days off
It's what I need to stay strong
I know you have a day job
But mine is 24/7
I fell like writing a book
I guess I lied in the hook
Cos I still love you and I need you by my side if I could
The irony is if my career and music didn't exist
In 6 years yeah you'd probably be my wife with a kid
I'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink
And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and its
Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to kill
And I'd be writing my will before I'm 27
I'll die from a thrill
Go down in history as just a wasted talent
Can I face the challenge
Or did I make a mistake erasing
It's only therapy
My thoughts just get ahead of me
Eventually I'll be fine I know that it was never meant to be
Either way I guess I'm not prepared
But I'll say this
These things happen for a reason and you can't change
Take my apology
I'm sorry for the honesty
But I had to get this off my chest



    Am
I don't love you baby
G6*   F
I don't need you baby
Em7*  Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more


Em7*   Am
I don't love you baby
G6*   F
I don't need you baby
Em7*  Am
I don't want you no
G6* F
Any-more





Em7* Am G6* F.... repeats and fades out




Have fun!
Christy
