Verse 1:
[E] I'm trying to s[B]leep
But this pain in my [C#m]chest
It's keeping me awake
And every breath I take
Feels like it's my [E]last
I want to be [G#m]fine
I want to be [C#m]sure
I want to be a [A]lot of things
And none of them include you

Refrain:
[B] I keep telling my[A]self
I'm not miserable
B A(hold)
I keep telling myself
I'm better off without you

Chorus 1:
[E] I believed that you [B]meant
everything you [C#m]said
Goodbye and [A]thanks for the memories
[E] For the pain and [B]lies
Every time I had to [C#m]cry
Goodbye and [A]thanks for the memories

Verse 2:
[E] I don't unders[B/D#]tand
Because it doesn't make [G#m]sense
The way you broke it off
Took away my heart
Took away all my [E]friends
I want to go [F#m]out
And get out of this [E]house
But to begin again is gonna take more
than I think I'd ever have to give

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus 1)

Chorus 2:
[E] I believe that I [B]was
so cleverly de[C#m]ceived
By good looks, some [A]charm
and a brilliant lie
[E] All the time that was s[B]pent
being used I should have [C#m]said
Goodbye and [A]thanks for the memories

Bridge:
[C#m] I want to know [B]why
you're such an idiot
[A] I want to know [B]how you
can even live with it
[C#m] I want to know why [B]I
should even give a [A]damn
About you missing [B]me so terribly

Verse 3:
[E] I'm starting to s[B]leep a
little easier [C#m]now
Now that I'm over this
And I've [A]made up my mind to
never fall in love again
[E] With someone like [B]you
someone so con[C#m]fused
I just wish I would have realized
A (hold)
that a long, long time before I had...

(Repeat Chorus 1 and Chorus 2)

Outro:
[E] I believed that you [B/D#]meant
everything you [C#m]said
Goodbye and [A]thanks for the memories
