[A]  You left a guy who told you
[D]where to be and [E]when
[A]I was with a girl who tried
to s[D]leep with my best [E]friend
[F#m]   We both took comfort in
each [D]other's messy lives
[A]  Finding warmth on that
[E]cold November night
[A]  We swore it'd be years
before we [D]brought that on
a[E]gain[A] Days later you said
that we should [D]be more
than just [E]friends
[F#m]   I let my guard down cause
the [D]feelings were so strong
[A]  But acted stupid and
that's [E]when he came along

[D]  It's been so long
I [E]should just move on
[A]There's other
[E/G#]fish in the [F#m]sea
[D]  But I keep hoping that
       [E]                 [A]--[C#m]--[D]--[E]-[D]-[C#m]- x2
you'll swim back home to me

[A]  We'd sneak out and go
[D]swimming late at [E]night
[A]  You're one of few who
can [D]say they've seen me [E]cry
[F#m]   You got my quirkiness and
[D]awkward sense of humor
[A]  We shared Simpson quote and
s[E]tarted made up rumors
[A]  If night turned into day
you'd [D]hide me from your [E]mom
[A]I could never fight with you
cause [D]you were never [E]wrong
[F#m]   This time especially
the [D]blame is all on me
[A]  If I'd not screwed things
up I [E]wonder where we'd be

(Repeat Chorus 1)

[F#m]   One day for [A]no rea[D]son
I [Bm]broke our [F#m]date
So you made [A]other
[D]plans that [Bm]day
[F#m]   And that's when
[A]you met [D]him
And [Bm]why you're s[D]till
with him to[E]day

[D]  It's been so long
I [E]should just move on
[A]There's other
[E/G#]fish in the [F#m]sea
[D]  But I keep hoping that
you'll [E]swim back home to
[D]  I'm just glad I got
a [E]chance to know you
[D]  You'll forever be
    [E]             [A]--[C#m]--[D]--[E]-[D]-[C#m]- x2 A(hold)
