Intro: Gm   Dm   Eb   Bb

Verse 1:
         Gm                  Dm
I knew a guy, let's call him Jeff
         Eb               Bb
He had a wife that up and left
              Gm                 Dm
Last Thursday night, she saw his texts
            Eb        Bb
And she was mortified
          Gm                  Dm
It wasn't right, though he confessed
               Eb                  Bb
That, just one time, he called his ex
           Gm        Dm               Eb         Bb
She didn't buy it or accept when Jeff apologized
Cm       Bb   Eb   F
Now he's all alone

Chorus:
Gm              Dm
Something funny that I've learned
   Eb               Bb
Is just how quickly fate can turn
    Gm            Dm                Eb        F
How one simple mistake can take you out -Out, out, out-
Gm              Dm
Something funny that I've found
   Eb               Bb
Is just how quickly worlds burn down
     Cm                 Bb              Eb
Make one wrong turn and you can't turn around -'Round, 'round, 'round-
                   F                         Gm   Dm   Eb   Bb
One wrong turn can burn things to the ground

Verse 2:
         Gm                   Dm
I knew a girl, let's call hеr Jess
           Eb             Bb
She took a drive to buy a drеss
               Gm                 Dm               Eb
But missed the light as it turned red and ran into traffic
           Gm                   Dm
She took a right, if she turned left
         Eb                  Bb
She'd be alive, would not be dead
            Cm                Dm
She'd have arrived, but now, instead
           Eb     Bb
The end is tragic

Chorus:
Gm              Dm
Something funny that I've learned
   Eb               Bb
Is just how quickly fate can turn
    Gm            Dm                Eb        F
How one simple mistake can take you out -Out, out, out-
Gm              Dm
Something funny that I've found
   Eb               Bb
Is just how quickly worlds burn down
     Cm                 Bb              Eb
Make one wrong turn and you can't turn around -'Round, 'round, 'round-
                   F
One wrong turn can burn things to the ground

Bridge:
        Eb
But the thing you didn't see comin'
         F
Is that Jeff was Jess' husband
        Gm                             Dm
And the ex he had to call is no longer into boys at all
             Eb
It's all one big misunderstanding
     F
Like dominos crash-landing
         Gm                                      Dm
Once the first one falls, they all come tumbling down
    Eb            Bb
And now he's all alone

Chorus:
Gm              Dm
Something funny that I've learned
   Eb               Bb
Is just how quickly fate can turn
    Gm            Dm                Eb        F
How one simple mistake can take you out -Out, out, out-
Gm              Dm
Something funny that I've found
   Eb               Bb
Is just how quickly worlds burn down
     Cm                 Bb              Eb
Make one wrong turn and you can't turn around -'Round, 'round, 'round-
                   F                         Gm   Dm   Eb   Bb
One wrong turn can burn things to the ground

Outro:
   Gm   Dm   Eb   Bb -x4-
   Cm   Bb   Eb   Bb

Biography

After getting dropped by Columbia Records at 18 years old, singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin built a following by playing in parking lots outside of Shawn Mendes and Troye Sivan concerts. The Phoenix, Arizona native caught the attention of Jon Bellion, earning a songwriting credit on Bellion’s debut album and later joined him on tour.

To build on the momentum, Benjamin began uploading new songs to his YouTube channel at a rapid clip and eventually earned a viral hit with “I Built a Friend” and a deal with Atlantic Records.
