Chorus:
-nc-     Cadd9
When I'm away from you
                 E7
I'm happier than ever
                         Am
Wish I could explain it better
                 Dm7    G
I wish it wasn't true, mmm


         Cadd9
Give me a day or two
                       E7
To think of something clever
                 Am
To write myself a letter
                  Dm7  G
To tell me what to do,  mm-mm

Verse 1:
C
  Do you read my interviews?
   E7
Or do you skip my avenue?
     Am
When you said you were passin' through
      Dm7b5
Was I even on your way?
   C
I knew when I asked you to -When I asked you to-
    E7
Be cool about what I was tellin' you
      Am
You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do -What you said you'd do-
       Dm7b5
And I'd end up more afraid
               E7
Don't say it isn't fair
                                   Am      Am     D  
You clearly weren't aware that you made me miserable, ooh
           Dm7          G7
So if you really wanna know

Chorus:
         Cadd9
When I'm away from you -When I'm away from you-
                  E7
I'm happier than ever -I'm happier than ever-
                         Am
Wish I could explain it better -Wish I could explain it better-
                 Dm7    G      C
I wish it wasn't true, mmm

Verse 2:
C              E7                   Am
You called me again, drunk in your Benz
               F          Fm
Drivin' home under the influence
C                 E7                       Am
You scared me to death but I'm wastin' my breath
                  F             Fm
'Cause you only listen to your xxxxin' friends
C                    E7
I don't relate to you
Am                     F
I don't relate to you, no
                  C               E7
'Cause I'd never treat me this xxxxty
            Am            F
You made me hate this city

Bridge:
                  C                      E7
And I don't talk xxxx about you on the internet
            Am              F
Never told anyone anything bad
                     C                        E7
'Cause that xxxx's embarrassing, you were my everything
                 Am                       F
And all that you did was make me xxxxin' sad
   C                             E7
So don't waste the time I don't have
    Am                         F
And don't try to make me feel bad
                    C                         E7
I could talk about every time that you showed up on time
                 Am                          F
But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did
               C                     E7
Never paid any mind to my mother or friends, so I
              Am                          F
Shut them all out for you 'cause I was a kid

Outro:
C                      E7
You ruined everything good
        Am                     F
Always said you were misunderstood
C                        E7
Made all my moments your own
Am                     F
Just xxxxin' leave me alone
