Verse 1:
Ab        Bbm                                     Gb
  Oh, it hurts the most 'cause I don't know the cause
                          Db                                     Ab
Maybe I shouldn't have cried when you left and told me not to wait
       Bbm                                  Gb
Oh, it kills the most to say that I still care
                      Db                                       Ab
Now I'm left tryna rewind the times you held and kissed me back
 
Pre-Chorus:
  Gb                            Ab         Bbm              Ab
I wonder if you're thinkin', "is she alright all alone?"
  Gb                        Ab        Bbm
I wonder if you tried to call, but couldn't find your phone
Ab      Gb                            Fm         Ebm
Have I ever crossed your thoughts because your name's all over mine
             Gb
a moment in time, don't watch me cry
             Ab
a moment in time, don't watch me cry
 
Chorus:
          Gb                             Db
I'm not crying 'cause you left me on my own
          Bbm                               Fm      Ab
I'm not crying 'cause you left me with no warning
          Gb                                Db           Db    Db  
I'm just crying 'cause I can't escape what could've been
Db    Db     Bbm
Are you aware when you set me free?
           Fm                 Ab
All I can do is let my heart bleed
 
Verse 2:
          Bbm                                    Gb
Oh, it's harder when you can't see through the thoughts
                      Db                                  Ab
Not that I wanna get in but I want to see how your mind works
          Bbm                                       Gb
No, it's harder when they don't know what they've done
                           Db                                    Ab
Thinking it's better they leave, meaning that I'll have to move on
 
Pre-Chorus:
  Gbmaj7                        Ab      Bbm                 Fm   
I wonder if you're thinkin', "is she alright all alone?"
  Gbmaj7                    Ab        Bbm
I wonder if you tried to call, but couldn't find your phone
Fm      Gbmaj7                        Fm         Ebm7
Have I ever crossed your thoughts because your name's all over mine
             Gb
a moment in time, don't watch me cry
             Ab
a moment in time, don't watch me cry
 
Chorus:
          Gb                              Db  Db    Db  
I'm not crying 'cause you left me on my own
Db    Db     Bbm                               Fm      Ab
I'm not crying 'cause you left me with no warning
          Gb                                Db           Db    Db  
I'm just crying 'cause I can't escape what could've been
Db    Db     Bbm
Are you aware when you set me free?
           Fm                 Ab
All I can do is let my heart bleed

Biography

Jorja Smith is an English singer from Walsall, UK. Smith impressed many and earned attention with her hip-hop and R&B-inspired debut single “Blue Lights” and has taken the rest of the year to deliver songs that fuse soul, blues, and even classical. She spent much of 2016 getting people very excited about her effortless, informed, and deeply soulful pop with a trio of eclectic singles. Her first EP Project 11 arrives so perfectly formed it almost feels like showing off. Many songs mark Smith out as her hero Amy Winehouse’s truest successor.
