Intro:
A  E  Bm  D
Oh-oh

Verse 1:
            A                         E
There was a trail of destruction that led straight to you
Bm                           D
Ignored all the signs that I wish weren't true
    A                  E                Bm   D
You're such a good actor, I guess you had me fooled
      A                     E
Guess I was convenient when I was around
       Bm                  D
'Cause you love attention, the talk of the town
    A                      E                  Bm D
And I'd build you up while you'd just tear me down

Pre-chorus:
       Gbm
What's done is done
     E            D
I'm on the other side now

Chorus:
   A                E
So you can play the golden boy
    Bm               D
And lose yourself in all the noise of
Gbm
"You're kind and you're so perfect"
E
"I'd love to be your girlfriend"
D
You were lucky once

How's life livin' on the surface?

Verse 2:
     A                         E
We'd talk all the time, now we don't even speak
Bm                       D
I'm wide awake while you're both still asleep
       A             E          Bm D
You're so unaffected by our history

Pre-chorus:
           Gbm
But what's done is done
    E            D
I'm on the other side now

Chorus:
   A                E
So you can play the golden boy
    Bm               D
And lose yourself in all the noise of
Gbm
"You're kind and you're so perfect"
E
"I'd love to be your girlfriend"
D
You were lucky once

How's life livin' on the surface?
A              E
You can really play the part
      Bm                D
While you stay breaking all these hearts
     Gbm
Oh, "What's it like to be his girlfriend?"
E
Looks good, but it's a burden
D
You were lucky once

Have fun livin' on the surface

Bridge:
    A
I'm thankful you're no longer wasting my time
    E
I'm grateful I gave up on reading your mind
  Bm
I know that it's much better ending like this
     D
Just one on your list, deceived and dismissed
    Gbm
No, I'm not alone being left in your mess
   E
It should bring me closure or something, I guess
    D
But all that I'm left with are unproven words
     A
That everyone heard and what makes it worse

Outro:
  A                 E
Is you just play the golden boy
    Bm             D
And got so lost in all the noise of
Gbm
"You're kind and you're so perfect"
E
"I'd love to be your girlfriend"

How's life livin' on the surface?
A              E
You can really play the part
     Bm                D
While you stay breaking all these hearts
     Gbm
Oh, "What's it like to be his girlfriend?"
E
Looks good, but it's a burden
D
You were lucky once

Have fun livin' on the surface
