Verse 1:
Gb         B
Leave it to me
Gb               B
I just can’t make it easy
Gb        B          Db
I open and they walk in
Gb             B
They’re nothing like you
           Gb            B
Oh, but the damage they’ll do
         Gb        B       Db
Is gonna rip me a new one instead

Pre-chorus:
    Ab     Bb           B
And nobody warned me it’d hurt so bad
Ebm     Bbm         Db
Loving again when I thought you had me
Ebm      Db                      B
Moving on and starting anew

Chorus:
Love after you
                                     Gb                 Gb
Is like a kick in the chest from the inside
Db                      B
Laughing then crying all night
 Gb    Db
Guess you get what you ask for, oh
B
Love after you
                          Bbm
Is a weight that I can’t get away from
  Db             Ab
A melody I can’t hum to
                   Db
Asking something I can’t choose
                    Gb
Did I ever really love you?

Interlude: B Gb B Ab Db

Verse 2:
Gb       B          Gb        B
I was so sure, it’d feel like before
Gb         B            Abm
A livable, laugh it off ache
Db
Something I can live with
        Gb          B
But I’m tossing and turning
Gb              B
I’m hurting and yearning
Gb       B        Ab     Db
What did I do to deserve this?

Pre-chorus:
Ab     Bb           B
nobody warned me it’d hurt so bad
Ab    Bb
Loving again when I thought you had me
Ebm      Db             B
Moving on and starting anew

Chorus:
Gb  B
Love after you
                                    Db
Is like a kick in the chest from the inside
            Db           B
Laughing then crying all night
                     Gb    Db
Guess you get what you ask for, oh
      B
Love after you
                             Bb
Is a weight that I can’t get away from
  Db                Ab
A melody I can’t hum to

Asking something I can’t choose

Bridge:
                                Gb
Your love was something I could live
     Db          Abm
without before
                      Gb  Db
If love was even what we had
  B                      Gb     Db
I didn’t know what I was asking for
Abm                         Db
If this is love please take it back
        B
Love after you
                       Gb
A miracle that’s dying out
      Db                          B
Every stupid poem you would write about
                  Db
Is laughing in my hands
            B
Love after you

A wound I don’t wanna waste
                              Ab
Praying I don’t make the same mistakes
              Db
But I already have

       Gb    B
Love after you
                                      Gb
Is like a kick in the chest from the inside
             Db          B
Laughing then crying all night
                     Gb    Db
Guess you get what you ask for, oh
      Gb    B
Love after you
                                  Gb
Is a weight that I can’t get away from
           Db       Ab
A melody I can’t hum to
                   Db            Gb
Asking something I can’t choose
  B       Gb      B     Gb       B
Did I ever really love you?
