Verse 1
And We're [C]all dressed[Cmaj7] up, no [C]place to [Cmaj7]run
No [C]car, no [Cmaj7]girl, no [C]pills, no [Cmaj7]fun
[Am]Nothing to [Am7]do in this [Am]empty [Am7]room
I gotta [Am]get my [Am7]head [Am]together [Am7]soon
[C]Alone [Cmaj7]again, no [C]plans, no [Cmaj7]friends
You [C]come [Cmaj7]around at[C] half past[Cmaj7] ten
And say [Am]"How are you [Am7]holding [Am]up my [Am7]friend?
Are you [Am]sitting [Am7]around getting [Am]drunk [Am7]again?"
Chorus 1
And I [Dm]hear the desperation of those [Em]lines
Wasted [F]hours, all this wasted [G]time
Yeah, I been just fine!

Verse 2
And we're [C]out the [Cmaj7]door in an [C]hour [Cmaj7]more
We [C]stumble [Cmaj7]down from the [C]second [Cmaj7]floor
And we're[Am] [Am7]swaying and [Am][Am7]braying
We [Am]don't know [Am7]what we're [Am][Am7]saying
And you [C]grab my [Cmaj7]shirt, your [C]way so [Cmaj7]curt
I [C]swear to [Cmaj7]God that this [C]doesn't [Cmaj7]hurt
When you [Am]stare like [Am7]that, you [Am]put on that [Am7]act
You [Am]say [Am7]something and then you [Am]take it [Am7]back
Chorus 2
And I [Dm]feel as though I've done something [Em]wrong
Oh, how I [F]miss you when you are [G]gone

Verse 3
And I [C]wish I [Cmaj7]had the [C]guts to [Cmaj7]scream
You know, [C]things aren't [Cmaj7]always [C]what they [Cmaj7]seem
When you [Am]walk [Am7]away, I want [Am]you to [Am7]stay
Don't [Am]leave me [Am7]here to [Am]pace and [Am7]pray
All these [C]nights I [Cmaj7]burned, [C]hours I [Cmaj7]turned
You'd [C]think [Cmaj7]that by [C]now I'd [Cmaj7]learned
That you're [Am]only [Am7]what you [Am]pretend to [Am7]be
I [Am]guess that [Am7]was just [Am]lost on [Am7]me
Chorus 3
And I can't [Dm]stand the way you look at me in that [Em]dress
Oh [F]Papillon, I might be alright I [G]guess
If I wasn't such a mess
Outro(same chords as verse):
[C] [Cmaj7] [C] [Cmaj7] [C] [Cmaj7] [C] [Cmaj7]I'm such a [Am]mess
