[Intro]
Bb F Eb
[Verse 1]
Bb F
We rode it to a dead end
Eb
Saying goodbye to a best friend
Bb F Eb
Is the bad part of the right thing to do
Bb F
I was hard to handle
Eb
And we burned out like a birthday candle
Bb F Eb
The pictures on the mantle aren't true
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
Everybody knows that a breakup
Dm
Is better when there's someone to hate, but
Eb
You were my favourite way to stay up
F
And I'd say that still
[Chorus]
Bb
I know the reasons
Gm
Took a couple tries to see 'em
F
But now everything is through
Eb
It's you I wanna call, though
Bb
When all I've known of
Gm
Is something that I should let go of
F Eb
I'll cut it at the root and drain it 'til it's all so hollow
Bb F Eb
But you are one tough act to follow
[Verse 2]
Bb F
I got busy
Eb
And you forgot how to miss me
Bb F Eb
When I'm not much of who you grew up with
Bb F
Oh, you were distracted
Eb
And the silence made a hat trick
Bb F Eb
It's a long list with a lasting fix

[Bridge]
Eb Bb
And I know that we weren't perfect
Eb Bb
So I hope you meet someone tomorrow
Eb Bb
And she's everything you wanted
Bb F Eb
But I hope I'm one tough act to follow
[Chorus]
Bb
I know the reasons
Gm
Took a little time to believe 'em
F
But now everything is through
Eb
It's you I wanna call, though
Bb
When all I've known of
Gm
Is something that I should let go of
F Eb
I'll cut it at the root and drain it 'til it's all so hollow
Bb F Eb
But you are one tough act to follow
Bb F Eb
You are one tough act to follow
