 (If you listen to the song, Molly switches
 back to Gmomentarily.)
 When I met  you, I thought you were really smart
 And even more  so when we started going out
 It was your intellect  that really won my heart
 There was just so  much stuff you knew so much about
 I was hungry  for knowledge, and  I was single
 I didn't want  to date and really hadn't planned  to
 But you were cool  and you were smart and you were multilingual
 And I felt  like I could really understand  you
 But then,  it went downhill
 and we'll never  get back to our better days
 I'm done,  I've had my thrill
 and I think  we ought to go  our separate ways
 But it isn't  you, it's  me
 I guess  we just weren't  meant to be
 I thought  we were inseparable, I thought  you were my friend
 But looking back  now, it all makes  sense at the end
 You're sometimes vague,  and you're often inconsistent
 You've no opinions,  you never take a stance
 You're so dispassionate,  you always sound so  distant
 And I tell  you, you know zilch about romance
 And not  once did you ever  say you love me
 You sent no flowers,  you NEVER called me "honey"
 And you  always talked as if you  were above me
 And it felt  like you were always needing money
 Sometimes  you generalize,
 And on better  days your tone is condescending
 And when we  talk books or  films
 You ALWAYS  find a way spoil the ending
 But it isn't  you, it's  me
 I need  someone more  scholarly
 I thought  you had the answers, but your smarts  are all pretend
 And my attraction  only makes  sense at the end
 You just believe  everything  you're ever told
 You never question,  I'm pretty  sure you don't fact check
   (Play this like  normal )
 When someone puts ideas into your head
 You never blink,  you immediately buy  it
 I won't  say that you have  no integrity...  but I might  imply it
 It turns out  you're not the guy I thought I knew
 and I think  we need to stop and take a breather
 I never know  if what you're saying's really true
 and frankly, sometimes,  I don't think you know either
 You have no  real facts, your knowledge  is all hearsay
 And I'm tired  of playing all your stupid games
 You don't keep pictures  of me, and you don't  know my birthday
 I don't  think that you even know my name
 You keep tabs  on other girls
 But I notice  there's no article for me
 You're known  by all the  world
 So I guess  I'm just a droplet  in the sea
 But it isn't  you, it's  me
 I owe  you no apology
 I know not  to judge my company just  based upon its looks
 I'm too grown-up  for your articles, it's time  that I read books

Readable chord sheet for It All Makes Sense At The End by Molly Lewis

[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] [Ab] [Eb] [Baug] [Ab] [Fm] [Ab] (If you listen to the song, Molly switches
back to G

When I [Eb]met you, I thought you were really [Bb]smart

And even [Cm]more so when we started going [Ab]out

It was your [Eb]intellect that really won my [Baug]heart

There was just [Ab]so much stuff you knew so much [Fm]about [Ab]

I was [Eb]hungry for knowledge, and[Bb] I was single

I didn't [Cm]want to date and really hadn't [Ab]planned to

But you were [Eb]cool and you were smart and you were [Baug]multilingual

And I [Ab]felt like I could really under[Fm]stand you [Ab]

But [Cm]then, it went do[Ab]wnhill

and we'll [Eb]never get back to our better [Ab]days

I'm [Cm]done, I've had my [Ab]thrill

and I [Eb]think we ought to [Bb]go our separate [Ab]ways

But it [Fm]isn't you, it's[Eb] me    [Bb]           [Cm]

I [Ab]guess we just weren't[Eb] meant to [Bb]be    [Cm]         [Ab]

I [Eb]thought we were inseparable, I [Baug]thought you were my friend

But looking [Cm]back now, it all [F]makes sense at the [Ab]end   [Fm]

You're sometimes [Eb]vague, and you're often incon[Bb]sistent

You've no o[Cm]pinions, you never take a [Ab]stance

You're so dis[Eb]passionate, you always sound so[Baug] distant

And I [Ab]tell you, you know zilch about ro[Fm]mance   [Ab]

And [Eb]not once did you ever[Bb] say you love me

You sent no [Cm]flowers, you NEVER called me "[Ab]honey"

And [Eb]you always talked as if you[Baug] were above me

And it [Ab]felt like you were always needing [Fm]money  [Ab]

Some[Cm]times you genera[Ab]lize,

And on [Eb]better days your tone is condesc[Ab]ending

And when [Cm]we talk books or[Ab] films

You [Eb]ALWAYS find a way spoil the [Ab]ending

But it [Fm]isn't you, it's[Eb] me    [Bb]          [Cm]

I [Ab]need someone more[Eb] scholar[Bb]ly    [Cm]          [Ab]

I [Eb]thought you had the answers, but your [Baug]smarts are all pretend

And my [Cm]attraction only [F]makes sense at the [Ab]end      [Fm]

You just [Eb]believe every[Bb]thing you're ever [Cm]told

You never [Eb]question, I'm [G]pretty sure you don't [B#m]fact [Cm]check

     [Eb]                      [F] (Play this like [A] normal [F])
When someone puts ideas into your head

You never [Ab]blink, you immediately [Fm]buy it

I [Eb]won't say that you [Cm]have no in[G]tegrity..[F]. but I [Fm]might imply it

[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] [Ab] [Eb] [Baug] [Ab] [Fm] [Ab]

It turns [Eb]out you're not the guy I thought I [Bb]knew

and I [Cm]think we need to stop and take a [Ab]breather

I never [Eb]know if what you're saying's really [Baug]true

and frankly, [Ab]sometimes, I don't think you know [Fm]either [Ab]

You have [Eb]no real facts, your knowledge[Bb] is all hearsay

And I'm [Cm]tired of playing all your stupid [Ab]games

You don't keep [Eb]pictures of me, and you don't[Baug] know my birthday

I [Ab]don't think that you even know my [Fm]name [Ab]

You keep [Cm]tabs on other [Ab]girls

But I [Eb]notice there's no article for [Ab]me

You're [Cm]known by all the[Ab] world

So I [Eb]guess I'm just a [Bb]droplet in the [Ab]sea

But it [Fm]isn't you, it's[Eb] me  [Bb]      [Cm]

I [Ab]owe you no a[Eb]polo[Bb]gy  [Cm]      [Ab]

I know [Eb]not to judge my company [Baug]just based upon its looks

I'm too [Cm]grown-up for your articles, it's [Ab]time that I read books  [F]
