Strum
D-DU-UDU
 No you never  were one for resting  easy were  ya
 So much  that when they told  me how you left  us here behind
 That I didn’t  even bat  an eye believing
 In words  I should have said  to make you stay  but couldn’t find
 In just hoped  that road would one  day watch you walk  right back  to me
 ‘till then I’ll be
Jet  black  and jealous
 And I’ll dare not let ‘em know that now you’re gone
 How I’ll still be a fool for the way we used to be
 I just keep laughin’ out loud and play along
 As if I traded you for one the way you traded me
 ‘Cause with your beat up bag and your laced up shoes
 You walked right out the door
 And I hit the floor
 Jet black and jealous
 Tell me how  was  I to know
 
 Tell me how can I let go
 Well I know  wherever you are  tonight
 You look  just like  a queen
 Stealing the scene
Jet  black and jealous
 And I bet by now you’re rolling through Pittsburgh
 Watching the rain in passing headlights
 From some roadside corner booth
 Still smiling ‘bout the choices that you made
 Hoping the clouds are breaking up ahead
 Skies blue instead of grey
 But if you get out there and you find
 That it’s not what you thought it’d be, remember me
 Jet black and jealous
 Repeat chorus
 Yeah if you get  out there and you find
 That it’s not what  you thought  it’d be,  come back to me
 Tell me how
 Tell me how was I to know
 Tell me how was I to know
 End: Fade out (I end on a G)
