Version 1
            [Verse 1]
        Gb      Gm        Bb Bbsus4 Bb
The backyard balcony view
      Gb      Gm             Bb
Was empty as hell without you
         Bbsus4 Bb     Gb
And the man that you trust
         Gm          Bb                 Bbsus4
Worth dust 'cause he left without a word
Bb         Gb         Gm      F
Have you heard an apology? No
                          Fsus4
No comment, what were you on?
F      Eb                                   Ebm
Don't tell me you truly believed when he promised
    Bb        Eb    Fdim           Ebm Cm         Ebm   F
Marvellous beaches, one of us each to carry the spade
    Bb        Eb     Gm      Ebm       Cm         Ebm   F
Don't be so nasty, Father McCarthy rolls in his grave


[Pre-Chorus]
   Eb                  Bb   Bb/A        Gm
I don't mean to be shallow, I'm just movin' on
           Gm/Gb    Eb
But it was nice to meet you
    Bb              Bb/A   Gm
For love is but a fleeting friend
      Gm/Gb       Gm/F           Eb
We'll end up both alone, oh, we know
    Bb            Bb/A        Eb
How easy it is to pretend


[Chorus]
Eb                             Bb           F/A
Sick of trying to be her and trying to be him
     Eb                            Bb            F/A
Exactly what is getting worse each time and time again
   Eb                                    Bb        F/A
Is that not something you could learn if only on a whim
    Eb                                 Bb               F/A
Pretendin' not to choke like the first time you tried a blem


[Post-Chorus]
Gm
   It's not really the time
                   Bb
For kickin' and squealing
                     Ab
Well, it's a silly thought
Ebm
It's a silly feeling, ah


[Verse 2]
        Bb       Eb     Fdim        Ebm     Cm         Ebm  D  F
Oh, marvellous beaches, one of us each will carry the spade
   Bb       Eb      Gm        Ebm    Cm       Ebm    D  F
Everyone leaves eventually, darling, don't be afraid
Eb                Bb     Bb/A      Gm
No, really, don't worry, won't you scurry now?
           Gm/Gb     Eb         Bb              Bb/A   Gm
While your life's in pieces and love is but a fleeting friend
Gm/Gb              Gm/F     Eb
Don't pretend that you care either
          Bb          Bb/A      Eb
As one of many broken hearts to mend
  Eb          Bb                Bb/A     Gm
I see you and love just doesn't care for you
      Gm/Gb       Gm/F       Eb
We'll end up both alone, oh, we know
     Bb               Bb/A N.C. Eb
Your father feels the same way  too (Too)


[Chorus]
Eb                             Bb           F/A
Sick of trying to be her and trying to be him
     Eb                            Bb             F/A
Exactly what is getting worse each time and time again
   Eb                                    Bb        F/A
Is that not something you could learn if only on a whim
    Eb                                 Bb               F/A
Pretendin' not to choke like the first time you tried a blem


[Outro]
F/A
     It's a silly thought
                         Eb
It's like changing your friends

If you could do it once

Would you do it again?
Bb Gb Gm                     Bb
         Would you do it again?
Gb    Gm                     Bb
         Would you do it again?
Gb    Gm                     Bb
         Would you do it again?
Gb    Gm                     Bb
         Would you do it again?
Gb    Gm    Bb
