Intro G
Chorus
C
when iʼm away from you
E
iʼm happier than ever
Am
wish i could explain it better
Dm G
i wish it wasnʼt true, mmm
C
give me a day or two
E
to think of something clever
Am
to write myself a letter
Dm G
to tell me what to do, mm-mm
C
do you read my interviews?
E
or do you skip my avenue?
Am
when you said you were passinʼ through
Dm
was i even on your way?
C
i knew when i asked you to
E
be cool about what i was tellinʼ you
Am
youʼd do the opposite of what you said youʼd do
Dm
and iʼd end up more afraid
E
donʼt say it isnʼt fair
Am
you clearly werenʼt aware that you made me
Dm
miserable, ooh
G
so if you really wanna know
Chorus
C
when iʼm away from you
E
iʼm happier than ever
Am
wish i could explain it better
Dm G
i wish it wasnʼt true, mmm
Instrumental C E Am F
C E Am
you called me again, drunk in your benz
F
drivinʼ home under the influence
C E Am
you scared me to death but iʼm wastinʼ my breath
F
ʼcause you only listen to your fuckinʼ friends
C E
i donʼt relate to you
Am F
i donʼt relate to you, no
C E
ʼcause iʼd never treat me this shitty
Am F
you made me hate this city
C E
and i donʼt talk shit about you on the internet
Am F
never told anyone anything bad
C
ʼcause that shitʼs embarrassing,
E
you were my everything
Am F
and all that you did was make me fuckinʼ sad
C E
so donʼt waste the time i donʼt have
Am F
and donʼt try to make me feel bad
C E
i could talk about every time that you showed up on time
Am F
but iʼd have an empty line ʼcause you never did
C E
never paid any mind to my mother or friends, so i
Am F
shut them all out for you ʼcause i was a kid
Outro
C E
you ruined everything good
Am F
always said you were misunderstood
C E
made all my moments your own
Am F
just fuckinʼ leave me alone
