Verse 1:
     Ab
I'll begin at the beginning, you met in New York City
       Eb
He was sitting like a prince on the stairs of his old building
       Cm
And he kissed you, you were finished, two months in a minute
Bb
Married at a desk in your sundress with a witness
      Ab
Had a honeymoon in Texas, went to Little Venice
Eb
Told him with your eyes, now you’re crying in the clinic
       Cm
And we pile into the plymouth, haircuts in the kitchen
   Bb
He always fell asleep just before the movie finished

Pre-Chorus:
        Ab
But you don’t, baby, you’re alone
               Eb
Echoes in your head, pressed into the floor
            Cm
Two-dimensional
                                       Bb
When’s it gonna end? Maybe when you’re dead?
               Bb
Maybe you’re a fool, but he loved you
       Eb
And he loved you in a t-shirt, mmm
        Fm
All the memories inside your curves
           Ab
Now you’re coming back to show us that, girl
              Bb
So roll those credits, 'cause the sequel’s gonna hurt, mmm

Verse 2:
     Ab
It's how the story goes, ramen on your own
Eb
Waiting by the phone, lipstick on the coat
Cm
Waiting by the door, you live in his clothes
Bb
You would make a joke that you had none of your own
Ab
All that xxxx I learned from you
Gm
Kindness spilt like milk and juice
Bb
So blindsided by the truth
Cm
In some way I was sure you knew

Pre-Chorus:
        Ab
But you don’t, baby, you’re alone
               Eb
Echoes in your head, pressed into the floor

Bridge:
Eb
All those nights he left you and me
          Fm
There was nothing left of you, but he squeezed
Cm
All those times he did what he pleased
Bb
Boy, those scars must really run deep
    Eb
And all that hurt comes out in one scream
       Fm
And it pierced him like the paper receipt
         Cm
That you got that time you went for food
Bb
That first night that he saw you
